Fairwinds Insights Release Notes 15.0-15.2: Aggregated Action Items

Written by Robert Brennan | Feb 20, 2024 4:37:00 PM

This month, we’re pleased to share new updates in Fairwinds Insights, including aggregated Action Items and admission request resolutions. Let’s explore these new capabilities.

Aggregated Action Items

We added a new Summary tab in the Action Items page, which shows you a breakdown of your Action Items by cluster, namespace, report type, or other dimensions. This is a great way to see where you have the most open Action Items, where you’ve manually resolved issues, and where have fixed most of the issues. You can filter by cluster, namespace, workload, kind, and many more to focus in on the areas of greatest interest to you.

Admission Request Resolutions

You can now mark Admission Request Action Items as resolved in the user interface. If you mark an issue as "will not fix" or "working as intended," that Action Item will no longer block that workload going forward. You can also use "snooze" to stop blocking for a period of time from one day to one week to one month.
