Build offers the capability to build applications, manage continuous integration workflows, and store build artifacts.
Overview
Tutorials
Administering
Users with the correct permissions can configure security, create users, configure integrations, and create notifications and announcements among other things.
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.

- Plug-ins
  Build plug-ins provide tools for creating workflows and integrating with external tools.
- Example plug-in
  A plug-in consists of one or more steps. A step represents a unit of functionality that a user can configure and combine with other steps into a process. Creating a plug-in consists of defining its individual steps and then grouping them for presentation in Build.
