Content - Next Steps

Validate or Certify

What to do with your content once you have it:

There are two main paths that Red Hat partner ISVs can take to make their content officially available to customers - certification and validation - and only Red Hat partners that have accepted the additional Ansible Automation Appendix in connect.redhat.com are eligible to contribute content in this way.

Your company may already be a member of the Red Hat partner program. You can confirm membership by contacting Kathy Seale ([e-mail]). If you are not currently a member, it is a simple process and shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes to get set up. This guide will help assist you if you are not already a Red Hat partner.

Certify Your Content

Certified content is fully supported by both Red Hat and the partner that certifies it. If you intend for your content of any type to be used as-is without customization, certification is the correct path to take.

Our Ansible certification workflow guide details this process, and [e-mail] can help answer any questions you may have along the way.

Note: EDA Content has additional certification testing requirements. For testing details and templates to integrate into your development environment and test pipeline, please visit the Ansible Partner Engineering-maintained EDA Partner Testing Repository.

Validate Your Content

Validated content is intended to be fully customizable by a customer, and therefore does not require the same support that certified content does. As such, only yaml based content can be submitted as validated content, and only partner ISVs and active Red Hat business partners are eligible to contribute it.

Our Ansible validated content workflow guide will be published shortly and linked here.
