OK, so we've been talking a lot about Runbooks, but we haven't really discussed them in depth. Well, it's time to do that! We've included this part in the middle of the Runbook Designer section because they are both so interconnected that it will be easier and more practical to address them together, while maintaining focus over the Runbook itself.
Before we start building Runbooks, we need to understand the basics that are related to concepts, design principles, and understanding the fundamental building blocks of Runbooks.
These are shown in the following list:
Naming, version management, and folders
Smart links
Published data and the data bus
Global settings (counters, variables, and schedules)
Subscription and data manipulation
Looping
Runbook control
