CircleCI

The CircleCI connector imports your pipelines into Logilica so build performance and reliability feed into the Build dashboard, and — once deployment detection is configured — the DORA metrics.

Authentication

CircleCI is a standalone connector authenticated with a CircleCI API token. Logilica uses the token to identify which account has access to each repository, then imports pipeline data for the projects that account can see. See Connecting Tools for how to add the token.

CircleCI projects must be backed by GitHub or Bitbucket. Logilica matches each connected repository to its CircleCI project using the repository's version control provider. Only projects hosted on GitHub or Bitbucket are supported.

What's Imported

For each matched CircleCI project, Logilica imports pipelines and the work beneath them:

• Pipelines — named after the project and pipeline number, with a link to the pipeline in CircleCI

• Timestamps — created and started times, and job completion times

• Build outcome — whether the pipeline succeeded, failed, or was cancelled

• Triggering actor — the account that triggered the pipeline

• Commit and branch — the commit revision and branch

• Workflows and jobs — each job within each workflow of the pipeline

How Logilica Maps the Data

Build outcomes are normalised so that success, failure, and cancelled results are consistent across every CI/CD platform Logilica supports.

Good to Know

• Kept in sync automatically. After the initial import, Logilica refreshes this connection on a regular schedule — you don't need to re-trigger imports.

• First import covers the last 6 months. The initial scan imports pipelines created within the last 6 months, paging back through history until it reaches that window. Importing older history requires a configuration change by Logilica — contact support.

• Up to 1000 pipelines per project. Logilica imports up to roughly the most recent 1000 pipelines per project at onboarding. Future pipelines are added to the stored history as they complete.

• GitHub or Bitbucket backend required. A repository's CircleCI project is only discovered when the repository is hosted on GitHub or Bitbucket.

• It feeds Build and DORA. Imported pipelines power the Build dashboard (build frequency, reliability, speed, and recovery time) and, once Release Detection is configured, the DORA metrics.

• Push your own build data. If you run builds that this connector doesn't cover, you can send them via the Build Data Import API.
