What you can expect from digest emails
Digest emails are tailored to your view rights.
If you can only view your own work, the emails contain your data only plus team aggregate data.
If your view rights allow you to see your organizational data, the emails provide summaries of org level metrics.
Digest emails can contain information including:
- Digest impact: see the Impact level for the selected date range. This Impact is compared to the average for the trailing 7 days in the Daily digest report, and the trailing 30 days in the Weekly digest report.
- Repository focus: See the repos which had the most commit activity associated with them.
- Work focus: See the breakdown of your coding work across the four Coding metric work types.
- Most notable commits: See the most significant commits in the time period. These commits can be classified as Whoppers, Bug Fixes, Refactors, or Cleanups.
- Contributors by impact. See the users with the highest Impact compared to the team average. Also see their commit count and work type breakdown.
- Pull requests: See pull requests that have been open more than 24 hours.
