LeanIX Automation Platform


 

 

Live Automation

Eliminate manual efforts and keep data quality at a maximum level. LeanIX Automation Platform provides endless possibilities to automate and scale LeanIX in your organization.

  • High-level scripting environment for creating your own automations
  • 20+ Predefined Automations
  • Automatically create and assign ToDos in case of data quality gaps
  • Automatically link IT Components based on CMDB information
  • Inherit fields, tags and relations from parents to children and across other relations
  • Aggregate fields, tags and relations from children to parents and across other relations
  • Make indirect relations consistent: Automatically complete relation triangles like Application -> ITComponent -> Provider
  • Whenever a subscription is added, look up the person's manager in AD/HR and add them as manager
  • Automatically create and assign ToDos if contacts / subscriptions leave the organization and become invalid
  • and many more.

 

Example 1: Inherit tags from Organizations to Applications.

Auto-Tagging
Example 2: Automatically add and manage subscriptions based on the organization model. This enables managers to see their portfolio automatically in LeanIX without any manual data maintenance, and it also provides fallback contacts in case somebody leaves the organization.
 
Subscription Autocompletion
 
 

Example 3: Create a ToDo or send an e-mail alert if somebody removes themselves from a subscription. (Yes, people do this sometimes if they don't see themselves as responsible :)

Example 4: Create a ToDo or send an e-mail alert if somebody archives a fact sheet. People sometimes do this mistakenly, so you can improve your control and check if this deletion was intentional.

 
 

 

Data Quality Management

In order to get started with data quality management in LeanIX, you first need to understand the current situation. Which organizations and units are struggling to keep their data quality high?

  • Define quality KPIs and metrics

  • Generate a report in your own corporate design, using LeanIX Reports, PowerPoint or e-mail.

 
Quality Gap Reminder

Having understood your data quality situation, the next step is to provide your employees a very easy and accessible way to close their own quality gaps.

The quality gap reminder e-mail is the entry point into this process, as it provides to your employees

  • the reason why they need to maintain LeanIX data

  • information about each quality gap

  • clear instructions on how to close each gap.

 Scheduled Reminder

As soon as the most critical data quality gaps are under control, you need to set up a scheduled review reminder.

The recurring reminder e-mail provides managers an easy way to check if all subscriptions are still up-to-date and if their own fact sheets are still accurate and up-to-date.

 

LeanIX Console

 

 

LeanIX Scripting

This high-level scripting module is based on Python and provides the basis for LeanIX Automation Platform. It enables you to spend less time developing and more time providing value, and can also be used as standalone solution.

  • Native access to the entire LeanIX data model without having to code any API calls
  • Automatically detects your LeanIX meta model and builds all classes and methods accordingly

  • Takes away the cumbersome work such as authentication, building GraphQL requests, API paging, fact sheet caching, logging/debugging, error handling and error retry, rate limiting, reconnect on token expiration and much more.

# Load all fact sheets of a certain type
applications = Application.all()

# Get fact sheet by name
organization = Organization("Acme Holding SE")

# Get all processes of an application
application.processes()

# Navigate from Application to
# IT Component to Provider...
organization.applications()[0]
  .itcomponents()[0]
  .providers() ...

# Get an Organization's Country based on
# its location attribute
organization["location"]["geoCountry"]

# Check an organization for a specific tag
# of tag group "Unit"
if organization.has_tag("RnD") ...


Browser Console

Run any Python script in the context of your LeanIX workspace, without installing anything on your machine. An API token is all you need, examples are included.
