[Feature flag] Enable group deployment frequency API
What
Remove the :dora4_group_deployment_frequency_api
feature flag ...
Owners
- Team: ~"group::release"
- Most appropriate slack channel to reach out to:
#s_release
- Best individual to reach out to: @mkozono
Expectations
What are we expecting to happen?
When the flag is enabled, the group scope deployment frequency API will become available: !51938 (merged)
What might happen if this goes wrong?
It's possible that a DB query performed by the endpoint can be slow, see !51938 (comment 491179854) for more details.
What can we monitor to detect problems with this?
I'm not sure. @mayra-cabrera do you know this?
We could monitor the API for
projects/:id/deployments
(since it's using the same finder). Then once the monitor for Deployments Group is live, we should monitor that one instead.
