1. Configure credentials
The following information must be provided:

API Token vs. Password To ensure security you can use the "API Token" instead of a password for Rally Cloud. If a token is used login field should stay empty. How to generate API Keys in Rally - https://github.com/RallySoftware/rally-oauth-examples#api-key. |

Default credentials
If you enter an URL that coincides with any URL from Default Credentials, no password/login is needed. For more information, see PERF Administration.

2. Distribute workflows
Workflows represent processes on your project and give you control over the project's progress. PERF simplifies workflows by distributing each of them into three different buckets.
At this step issue statuses pulled from Rally Software project are to be distributed into 3 buckets: To Do, In Progress, and Done.
To Do: for statuses meaning the item is not ready for development.
In Progress: for statuses meaning the item is in development.
Done: for statuses meaning the item satisfies the "Definition of Done" criterion in a project.

Change is applied immediately, data load is unnecessary.
For more details, see Include Sub-Items into Metrics Calculation.
Workflow updates type
Rally workflows could be changed and then a new status could be added or removed the existing one. To manage changes in the configuration you can choose between automatic and manual workflows update.
Workflow Updates Type | Description |
---|---|
Automatically | If any Rally workflow was changed, then the PERF application after next data load does the following:
|
Manually |

3. Configure scope management
This section describes how to configure scope management for Rally data source.
Definition of ready
Is used to configure what work items are considered to be ready for development for the project, so the affected metrics are calculated correctly.
