The Overview page and live status

Overview is the first item in the sidebar and the page you land on after signing in. Where a project's Dashboard covers one app, Overview covers all of them: how many projects you have and where they stand, every deployment across them, your connections, your services and what it all costs. Most numbers are clickable and take you to the detail.

In a workspace you're a member of, Overview counts only the projects you can open and the connections shared with you.

Things that need you

When something only a person can do is waiting in a project (a deployment paused on a manual step, or an add-on whose setup can't be automated), a box at the top says how many things need you and lists each project with its count. Click a project to go straight to it.

The four numbers

• Projects: how many you have, split into live, building and failed. Click it to open the Projects page.
• Deployments: how many there have been, the success rate, and how many succeeded, failed or are running now.
• Connections: your cloud and Git accounts, how many are verified, and how many have an error. Click it to open Connections.
• Est. monthly cost: an estimate of what your running projects and services cost a month, from what they created in your cloud. It notes when the figure is lower because some servers are stopped (stopped servers and databases stop billing their computing time; disks and storage still bill). Where your cloud account shares its real charges, it also shows what that provider has billed so far this month for the whole account. Click it to open Services.

The cost figure is an estimate. Your cloud provider bills you directly, and its bill is the real figure. See costs and billing.

The charts

• Deployment activity: deployments per day over the last 14 days, split into succeeded, failed and in progress.
• Deploy outcomes: all deployments by result.
• Projects by stage: how many projects are live, in progress, failed or not deployed, and a bar for each stage (Scanning, Architecture, Deploying and so on).
• How deploys start: what started each deployment: Manual, Push, Auto, Env change, Git env, Domain or Automatic retry.
• Connections: your cloud accounts by provider and your Git accounts, with verified and error counts, and an Add button.

Recent activity

Recent activity is every deployment across all your projects, newest first. Each row shows the deployment number, how it started, the project, what it did, the date and its status. Click a row to open that deployment's logs.

To narrow it down, type in the search box (project, commit or deployment number), or open the filters:

• Type: All, Manual, Auto, Env, Push, Domain or Retry
• Status: All, Succeeded, Failed, Cancelled or In progress
• On date: one day

Active filters show as chips. Click one to clear it, or Clear all.

Beside the list:

• Last deployment: the most recent one, with a link to its logs.
• Recent projects: click one to open it.
• Services: your services by type, with a View button, and a warning if any failed to set up.

Pages that update live

You don't need to refresh. While you're signed in, the app keeps one connection open and is told the moment something changes in your workspace: a deployment starts, moves to its next step or finishes, a project changes stage, or a server starts or stops. The page you're looking at then updates just what changed.

This covers:

• Overview: the numbers, charts and Recent activity;
• Projects: each project's stage;
• a project's own pages, including its Dashboard;
• Servers: each server's state, and the server you have open.

On a project's Dashboard, the CPU, memory and disk meters are measurements rather than events, so they refresh on their own about every 30 seconds.

You only hear about what you're allowed to see: a teammate isn't told about projects they can't open, or about servers without the Servers permission.

If the connection drops (a network change, a laptop waking from sleep), the app reconnects by itself, and refreshes what's on screen once to catch up. While it's disconnected, pages fall back to checking every few seconds, so nothing goes stale.

Common problems

• A number looks out of date. Wait a moment for the app to reconnect, or reload the page.
• A teammate sees fewer projects or connections than you. Overview shows only what each person can open. See working with your team.
• The cost is different from your cloud bill. The figure is an estimate; your provider's bill is the real one.
