Overview

The LaunchDarkly connector enables AI Team members to interact with your LaunchDarkly feature management platform, providing capabilities for managing feature flags and AI configurations. By connecting LaunchDarkly to AI Team, AI teammates can query flag states, manage flag configurations, track rollout progress, and help coordinate feature releases.

The connector provides access to feature flags and AI configs, allowing AI teammates to help with feature flag management, progressive rollouts, and configuration updates.

Add the LaunchDarkly Connector

To add the LaunchDarkly connector, you obtain an API access token from LaunchDarkly and configure authentication in Edge Delta.

Prerequisites

Before configuring the connector, ensure you have:

  • LaunchDarkly account with appropriate permissions
  • API access token from LaunchDarkly
  • Required permissions for the operations you need

Configuration Steps

  1. Navigate to AI Team > Connectors in the Edge Delta application
  2. Find the LaunchDarkly connector
  3. Click the connector card to open the configuration panel

How to Use the LaunchDarkly Connector

The LaunchDarkly connector integrates with AI Team, enabling AI teammates to manage feature flags and AI configurations based on natural language queries. Once configured, AI teammates can help with feature rollouts, flag management, and configuration updates.

Use Case: Feature Flag Management

AI teammates can help manage feature flags by retrieving flag information, updating configurations, or creating new flags. For example, when planning a feature rollout, the AI can check current flag states, review targeting rules, and help coordinate the rollout process.

Use Case: Progressive Rollout Coordination

When rolling out features progressively, AI teammates can monitor flag states across environments and provide visibility into rollout status. This helps teams track which user segments have access to new features and coordinate the rollout timeline.

Use Case: Configuration Updates

AI teammates can help update feature flag configurations or AI config settings based on requirements. When changes are needed, the AI can modify flag targeting rules, update variations, or adjust configuration parameters.

Troubleshooting

Authentication errors: Verify your API access token is valid and hasn’t been revoked. Check that the token has the required permissions (Writer for modifications, Reader for read-only access).

Permission errors: Ensure your API token has appropriate role assignments for the operations you need. Some operations require Writer or Admin permissions.

Missing flags: Verify you have access to the LaunchDarkly project where the flags exist. Check that flags haven’t been archived if you’re trying to access them.
