User Blueprints vs Plugin Blueprints
Rely.io distinguishes between two types of blueprints: User Blueprints and Plugin Blueprints.
Plugin Blueprints
Plugin Blueprints are predefined by Rely.io and define each native plugin's data model. These blueprints (and its entities) are not editable by users, ensuring stability and integrity of the plugin's functionality.
When installing (some) plugins, you may select assets of interest. The selected assets determine which Plugin Blueprints are incorporated into your own data model.
These blueprints establish the structure for entities that Rely.io automatically retrieves and maintains through its entity discovery process. This automation keeps your catalogs consistently up-to-date without any manual intervention required.
Entities created from plugin blueprints serve as an accurate reflection of data from your development tools, acting as the definitive source of truth for the information Rely.io ingests.
User Blueprints
In contrast, User Blueprints are fully customizable. They are created and managed by users to tailor its Rely.io environment to specific organizational needs. These blueprints allow for flexibility and adaptability in defining and managing the entities within your software catalog.
