Automate a notification to site admins when the Drupal Apigee Edge module(s) have a new version released. Look to see if there is something already created which would do this first. If there is no off-the-shelf service to do this, then build one. Similarly automatic notification to be sent to site admins whenever any installed Drupal module update is released. Anything in the Roadmap (below) that has an epic starting with “MG -” will also be in Phase 1 scope.

Implement Apigee Teams feature (Teams allow developers /portal users to share responsibility for an app with other developers.) See: Apigee Docs on Teams	In addition, we want to implement some site improvements, such as SSO integration, the Apigee teams feature, better integration with the campus identity system, and automation of the Apigee Drupal module updates. The resources for some of these tasks will be different as they will require direct involvement from the Apigee team and other campus teams.
