Overview of the UI

You'll find the following pages once you've accessed the BindPlane OP UI.

Overview

The Overview page summarizes the flow and consumption of your configurations and destinations. It's used to quickly understand your overall throughput for metrics, logs, and traces.

The ability to sort to the "Top Three" will let you see the Configurations and Destinations with the most consumption at a glance.

Agents

This is the first stop to view your fleet of agents quickly. From this page, you can navigate to view agent configuration, status, or errors directly by clicking on the agent name. Alternatively, you can see which configuration resources are deployed to these agents in the "Configuration" column. Quickly narrow your view with the search bar and suggested filters.

Configurations

Here is the entry point to view all your current configurations. From here, you can select a configuration to edit or create a new configuration with the button on the top right.

Destinations

Here is where you'll find all your reusable destination resources. In particular, any Destinations you have created inside configurations can be viewed, edited, and deleted on this tab.

Now that you've accessed the UI, let's help you install your first agent.
