Feature
Definition
A feature is an entity in Bucket that is used manage a "feature in your product". This refers to releasing the feature, manage access, configure, track adoption, gather feedback, and etc.
Features can be organized into hierarchies (having other features as parent) and grouped into feature views, for easy reporting.
Feature key
Each feature has an unique feature key and some basic details such as name and description, adoption rules, feedback configuration and other.
Feature keys are unique across your app. They cannot be edited after the feature is created. You can think of the feature key as a flag key that also is used for tracking feature adoption and getting feedback.
The following entities are associated with a feature through its key:
Access
Each feature in Bucket comes with a set of access targeting rules that are evaluated against the context of the user of your application. Access is evaluated each time the rules change of the context changes. Bucket SDKs transparently deal with evaluation, caching and refreshing of access status of the user of your application.
Feature access can also be used within Bucket itself as a filter consumed by other entities.
Metrics
Feature metrics are a set of values that are calculated for each company that is using the feature. These metrics include Average feedback score, STARS state, First and Last used dates and others.
Feature metrics are used within the Bucket UI in various places but can also serve as values for filters consumed by other entities.
