Configuration

Application configuration YAML

No action required

This plugin requires a backend proxy configuration to make calls to Harness APIs with authentication. The following configuration is set by default and you do not need to change anything:

proxy:
  "/harness/prod":
    target: "https://app.harness.io/"
    pathRewrite:
      "/api/proxy/harness/prod/?": "/"
    allowedHeaders:
      - authorization

Secrets

No secrets are required for this plugin because both IDP and Feature Flags are part of the Harness software delivery platform.

Delegate proxy

No action required

This plugin does not require a delegate proxy to be set up.

Layout

No action required

This plugin exports a UI tab that you can use as a new Feature Flags tab for a service or for any other layout page. The following configuration is set by default in Layout under Configure for Service and you do not need to change anything:

- name: feature-flags
  path: /feature-flags
  title: Feature Flags
  contents:
    - component: EntityHarnessFeatureFlagContent

Also, you could add a conditional like isHarnessFeatureFlagAvailable which is met when the harness.io/project-url annotation is present in the software component's catalog-info.yaml definition file.

- name: feature-flags
  path: /feature-flags
  title: Feature Flags
  contents:
    - component: EntitySwitch
      specs:
        cases:
          - if: isHarnessFeatureFlagAvailable
            content:
              component: EntityHarnessFeatureFlagContent

Annotations

To configure the plugin for a service in the software catalog, set one or both of the following annotations in its catalog-info.yaml definition file:

apiVersion: backstage.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  # ...
  annotations:
    # mandatory annotation
    harness.io/project-url: <harness_project_url>
spec:
