It will be helpful to Schedule the Build from Catlight

Windows. CatLight v3.1.3

I have 3 dashboards. 2 of them is all "green" and the last has two failed build, both of which I have "ackowlegded". 

Catlight icon on the top of the dashboard is correctly a red outline, but the Windows Taskbar icon i solid red.

In our environment we have a chain of 10 related builds (TeamCity). If one of those fails, the whole chain turns red. If I want to acknowledge them, I have to do right-click and acknowledge 10 items.

Suggestion: Make it possible for me to multi-select all my failing builds, right-click this selection and acknowledge all of them at once.

This release includes support for push notifications from Jenkins. Use the CatLight Jenkins plugin to set them up. You will get build notifications almost instantly, and the load on your Jenkins server will be reduced, as the CatLight app will do much less polling. See how to configure accelerated notifications for Jenkins.

This release also includes a number of small quality-of-life improvements:

• Information about PR creator on the dashboard.
• Feature to duplicate the dashboard and all of its settings.
• Improved startup troubleshooting.
• Grouping of GitLab and GitHub pipelines in monitoring settings
• Improved GitHub performance for large users

By default, CatLight will poll your server every minute to check for updates. You can configure push notifications using webhooks for Azure DevOps, TFS, and Jenkins. After that CatLight app will significantly reduce polling frequency, and check for changes when it receives the push notification. You can expect to get notifications about 10x faster and reduce your server load by about 30x.

We're excited to announce that after multiple preview versions, we are releasing a GA version of CatLight 3.

CatLight v3 has a lot of improvements:

• Re-designed dashboards with action and watch lists
• Create multiple dashboards and share them with your team
• New integrations. You can now monitor the following:
  • GitHub actions, issues, and pull requests
  • Jira issues
  • GitLab merge requests
• Accelerated notifications for Azure DevOps and TFS - get notified faster and reduce the server load
• You can now tell the team that you are reviewing a PR or working on a task in one click
• Improved toast notifications
• The tray icon will now show the severity of the top item on the action list

I'm getting an error with my Team Connection that states "Sequence contains no elements". When I select Configure, I get a brief loading screen and then it returns me to the dashboard (the warning banner is still present).

I think I started seeing this with v3.0.31

In the TrayLog.txt, it looks like it's failing to connect to a local service:

In the new version of the app, you can configure real-time push notifications from your Azure DevOps or TFS server to CatLight desktop apps.

As a result, you'll get notifications 10x faster, and the app will generate 30x less load on your server. This can be especially useful for users with a large number of projects and builds.

How to enable accelerated notifications

• Install the CatLight Azure DevOps extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace
• Go to Azure DevOps web UI. Every project should now have "CatLight" hub on the left. 

• In the CatLight hub, click on "Enable accelerated notifications".

It would be very convenient when managing several panels if the Settings screen showed all panels simultaneously (perhaps with the ability to collapse/expand each panel configuration). This would allow for easily comparing the filters in each panel, and maybe even rearranging Rules between panels via drag and drop or a clone feature.

Another benefit is that the data wouldn't have to refresh as often when changes are made to multiple panels. Currently it's a bit cumbersome to move a Rule to a different panel:

1. Open Panel1 settings
2. Remove Rule
3. Save
4. Wait for data to refresh
5. Open Panel2 settings
6. Add Rule

Please allow me to set a setting that will hide PR's that I have already completed.  Also allow notifications for when PR's that I have been listed as a reviewer on are completed.

With a new version of CatLight, you can monitor Jira issues. Get desktop notifications about new issues, and see an overall status in the tray.

You can also include issues from Jira into your CatLight Action Center, and combine them with PRs, and build issues into a single prioritized list of work.

CatLight will only show filters that you have created or that have explicitly public permissions. If you don't see any items in Catlight Jira settings, try making a new filter in Jira.

This feature is available in CatLight v3.0.26+ https://catlight.io/downloads 

The new version of CatLight can monitor merge requests in GitLab. The app will show desktop notifications for incoming MRs, and display a list of incoming and outgoing MRs on the dashboard.

We also improved toast notifications. We fixed a long-standing issue on Windows OS, and now the app dashboard will be opened when you click on the notification. New notifications will also have a "web" button that will take you directly to the alerted build, release or pull request.

New features are available in CatLight v3.0.21+ https://catlight.io/downloads 

The new version of CatLight can monitor and show desktop notifications for GitHub actions, issues, and pull requests.

• Get reminders about pending GitHub PRs and notify others that you are reviewing a PR with one click.
• See the progress and ETA for your GitHub Actions workflows and jobs. Notify your team that you are investigating a broken GitHub Action job.
• Get a prioritized list of your issues, alongside other action items for your project. See desktop notifications about the new GitHub issues.

Available in CatLight 3.0.19+ . Download it from https://catlight.io/downloads 

Usually, when connecting to GitHub, you can use an option to "Sign in online", and CatLight will request all necessary permissions. 

If you are connecting to GitHub Enterprise, or online sign-in does not work for you, use a token to authenticate.

To get a token from GitHub, open the token page:

1. Go to GitHub
2. Click on your profile, then on "Settings"
3. Go to the "Developer settings" tab
4. Click on "Personal access tokens", then "Tokens (classic)"
5. Click on Generate new token
6. Set expiration to "No expiration" to ensure that the token works indefinitely. You specify another value if needed.
7. Select the

In the new version, we add extra context to tooltips. Hover over the build square to see who started it and when. Release squares tooltips will show the detailed status of each environment. Investigation and review icons will also show detailed information about people working on the item.

These features are available in v3.0.17+ https://catlight.io/downloads 

In CatLight v3 preview 2 we focus on real-time notifications about work progress for teams.

You can now let your teammates know that you are reviewing a PR, or actively working on a specific task:

Your teammates will get a toast notification. They can also see that you are working on a PR or a task on their watch list.

This feature is available in CatLight 3.0.14+, you can download it from https://catlight.io/downloads 

Our support team might need extended application logs to troubleshoot complex issues.

Here is how you can collect them:

1. Go to edit menu/settings/advanced and check "Enable extended logging". This will turn on the logging of requests and responses from the server. Sensitive data will be masked.
2. Repeat the action you had trouble with (e.g. connecting to a new server).
3. Click on "Help & feedback" menu -> Send diagnostic report to support
