Details about data collected for Automation Analytics

Automation Analytics collects the following classes of data from automation controller:

• Basic configuration, such as which features are enabled, and what operating system is being used
• Topology and status of the automation controller environment and hosts, including capacity and health
• Counts of automation resources:
  • organizations, teams, and users
  • inventories and hosts
  • credentials (indexed by type)
  • projects (indexed by type)
  • templates
  • schedules
  • active sessions
  • running and pending jobs
• Job execution details (start time, finish time, launch type, and success)
• Automation task details (success, host id, playbook/role, task name, and module used)

You can use awx-manage gather_analytics (without --ship) to inspect the data that automation controller sends, so that you can satisfy your data collection concerns. This creates a .tar file that contains the analytics data that is sent to Red Hat.

This file contains several JSON and CSV files. Each file contains a different set of analytics data.
