Adding custom page owners

Owners in EventCatalog are either users or teams and are optional.

To add an owner or a team, you need to add the user or team to the owners field of the custom page.

Adding owners using frontmatter

To add owners within a custom page you need to add them to the owners array within your custom page frontmatter API.

You need to add the id of the owner.

/docs/guides/creating-a-new-producer/index.mdx (example)
---
id: OrderChannel
... # other custom page frontmatter
owners:
- dboyne # represents a user
- webTeam # represents a team
---

Assigning owners to your custom pages can provide others with context of who owns this custom page and how to contact them.

Creating users and teams

EventCatalog gives you the ability to create users and teams. You can read the documentation to get started.
