Welcome
Administering
Users with the correct permissions can configure security, create users, configure integrations, and create notifications and announcements among other things.
Integrations
When you configure integrations, you allow Build to use and manage the objects and artifacts that are produced in external tools such as HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy).

DevOps Loop: Build
Build offers a robust, template-driven system for managing continuous integration and build processes.

Administering
Users with the correct permissions can configure security, create users, configure integrations, and create notifications and announcements among other things.
- Integrations
  When you configure integrations, you allow Build to use and manage the objects and artifacts that are produced in external tools such as HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy).
  - Integrating with Eclipse
    Eclipse projects can be integrated with Build.
  - Integrating with DevOps Deploy
    HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) applications and components can be integrated into Build.
  - Integrating with Maven
    Build can act as a Maven repository for projects that are built in Build and as a caching proxy for external Maven repositories.
- Managing scripts
  The script library provides numerous scripts for you to use and modify.
- User notifications
  Build can send information about build results to selected users by email, instant messaging, and other methods.
- Security
  Build provides a flexible team-based, and role-based security model that maps to your organizational structure.
- Project support
  Projects represent items that can be built individually for release or distribution.
- Server management
  Use server settings to manage your server other system-related settings.
- Agents
  Agents are light-weight processes that are installed on hosts and communicate with the Build server.
- Creating scripts to automate administrative tasks
  The Build Client facilitates writing scripts that interact with various REST endpoints in Build to automate tasks such as creating templates, assembling projects, running builds, and various other administrative tasks.
- Accessing development tools
  Use the Tools window to access the Build development tools.
- Installing plug-ins
  You install plug-ins by downloading the installation files and loading them into Build.
Creating and Managing Projects
Projects run builds, manage dependencies with third-party tools, and can be used for administrative, operational, and system maintenance.
Creating Jobs and Processes
Jobs are the core building blocks of Build. Process definitions assemble jobs into the basic unit of automation. A process definition determines how, when, and where jobs run.
Managing Project Templates
Project templates are reusable plans that map build processes.
Monitoring and Reporting
With the monitoring tools you can review current and historical activity and save your filter conditions for future use. You can create charts and reports from most database tables.
Extending Product Functions
You can create your own plug-ins to extend the product’s capabilities.

Integrations

When you configure integrations, you allow Build to use and manage the objects and artifacts that are produced in external tools such as HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy).

Build provides integrations with many tools. Integrations are implemented at the job and step levels. With these integrations, Build can distribute process execution and access third-party tools.
