Description

The default "excluded_facts" pattern list includes "en*v*" which excludes all fact names containing "env" if it is preceeded by "_" or "::".

While this is only a setting and can be changed, it is difficult to discover. I was not aware of the setting until I started debugging why some facts were present in puppetdb but not visible in Foreman.

I realize that this may not be easy to fix since changing the default setting may have negative effects.
