Frequently asked questions

Can I add a fifth quadrant or delete one?

No. A radar has exactly four quadrants. You can rename them on the Quadrants tab of Administration › Tech Atlas.

Where do the entries come from?

From Administration › Tech Atlas › Entries, where you add them by hand. The Settings tab also offers a second Data source, url, to read the entries from a published document: type its address in URL, then click Save.

What does Run discovery do?

It reads the repositories of your components to find the technologies they use. It needs an integration for the host of your repositories.

Can I add or move an entry from the radar?

No. The radar only reads: click an entry to see its description and its History. Entries are added and moved in Administration › Tech Atlas, by administrators.

Who sees the radar?

The radar is the Tech Atlas page in the left sidebar. Its settings, rings and entries are in Administration › Tech Atlas.
