Deployment Count Report

The Deployment Count Report provides information about the number of deployments that ran during a specified reporting period. The report provides both a tabular presentation and line graph of the data. Each table row represents an environment that was used by an application for the reporting period and interval.

The line graph elements are:

The units along the y-axis are scaled to the number of records reported. The units along the x-axis represent the reporting interval, which can be: months, weeks, or days. Each color-coded plot line represents a single environment that is used by the deployment during the reporting period.

When selected, the report runs automatically for the default reporting period (the current month) and reporting interval (days), and with all filters set to Any. The default report provides a count of all deployments that ran during the current month.
