Pre-builts overview

The Itential Open Source Pre-Builts repository is no longer actively maintained. Those pre-builts have been certified up to Platform 2023.2, but can still be imported to Platform 6. We recommend transitioning to Projects for the best experience.

In Itential Platform, pre-builts refer to pre-developed automations that can be used as-is to perform common tasks such as upgrading, configuring, or checking the health and connectivity of network devices. These pre-builts are designed to save time and reduce the risk of technical debt. They are developed, tested, updated, maintained, and supported by Itential.

Pre-built component types

Prebuilts allow developers to accelerate execution of network automation use cases within Itential Platform. More specifically, pre-builts combine the abilities of multiple components that live within Itential Platform. A pre-built can be composed of the following component types:

  • Automation Catalog
  • Automations (Operations Manager)
  • Form
  • JSON Forms
  • Command Template (MOP)
  • Analytic Template (MOP)
  • Service Catalog
  • Template
  • Transformation
  • Triggers (Operations Manager)
  • Workflow
