Value report

Value analytics give you insight into time and money saved by Puppet Enterprise (PE) automation. You can access this information on the Value report page in the console or through the value API.

The information in the value report and the value API provide details about automated changes PE makes to nodes and estimates time saved by each type of change based on intelligent defaults or values you provide. If you specify an average hourly salary, the report also estimates cost savings from automated changes.

To ensure your value analysis is accurate:

• Make sure tasks, plans, and Puppet runs are processing normally because value analysis doesn't track failed runs.
• If you use the value API, query the endpoint regularly to gather data over time.
