Monkeyble in practice
To answer the first question. On our side we use it because of our Squest self service portal (https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest). We propose some service internaly like we could have in external publiccloud provider like deploying Openshift/K8S cluster, create a single VM in a VMware env, create an Openstack tenant, reserve an IP/DNS entry, generate an internal cert,....

Looking for open-source self-service portal for automation I build
https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest http://manageiq.org/ - I just found this link - it looks promising. https://budibase.com/approval-apps/ A custom app which requests a ci build which will wait on a manual trigger that an authorized person has to trigger to actually perform it Chat ops workflows mattermost/teams etc. You still have to do all the coding but at least you don't have to do the html gui. You just ask the user questions.

What challenges did you face once you gave devs access to Jenkins jobs?
That being said, for exposing a service catalog I would rather use something like Squest (https://github.com/HewlettPackard/squest). Precisely because I would want traceability and ability to follow up.

Infrastructure as Code vs Self-Service
There are also newer, Ansible focused self-service solutions like Automation Services Catalog from Red Hat or Squest from HPE. I don't know whether they can integrate into OP's Git repo or the self-servicable files need to be outside Git.

Webhook notifications -> unable to save custom messages
However, when I try to add it is not allowing me to save nor it throws any error. I see one old pull request which seem to address this very issue but I find the issue still persists. https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/8898

AWX / cicso.nxos Module Help
I ran into that (or something very similar) a few days ago. For me, I made a new Execution environment and used this image rather than the 'latest' one: quay.io/ansible/awx-ee:23.5.0 and now mine works. ref: https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/14689
