Pick from what exists
Identifier pickers offer the combinations that are actually there rather than an empty box to guess into — and they offer only the kind that fits, so a bearing is never picked for a chart that cannot draw one.

Sixteen modules, five things you came to do
Modules are grouped by intent — look something up, arrange a view, file things, check that data is still arriving, or run the deployment itself — because that is what somebody navigating actually has in mind. Start here for the map; each group below opens into its own page with every module explained in full.
Explore
Log Explorer · Reports · Insights
Look something up — logs, a month of an asset, and the business questions behind the numbers.
Views
Dashboards · Maps · Floor Plans · Cameras
Arrange a view — dashboards, maps, floor plans and live cameras, saved exactly as you left them.
Organize
Highlights · Labels
File things — the words you scan logs for, and the labels everything you own is filed under.
Monitor
Alerts · Sensors · Numeric Ingestion Monitor · Text Ingestion Monitor
Check that data is still arriving — alerts, the sensor registry, and the two ingestion monitors.
Administer
API Keys · Audit · Storage
Run the deployment — credentials, the audit log, and where the disk goes.
Across every module
The things that work the same everywhere
A handful of behaviours turn up in every module that shows data, so what you learn in one is worth knowing in the next.
Ranges, relative or absolute
Every view takes “the last hour” or two exact timestamps, with a bucket size and a refresh interval of your choosing, saved with the view rather than reset each visit.
Units come with the number
A series knows what it is measured in, and says so on the axis, on the tile and on the marker — so a chart never leaves you guessing whether that is degrees or metres.
Thresholds you set
Bands of value to colour by, so a readout on a map or a floor plan changes colour when it leaves the range you consider normal, with a legend that explains it.
Filed and found again
Labels file dashboards, maps, floor plans and cameras; highlight groups mark the log lines you care about. Both follow you into every module that shows the thing.
Saved as you left it
Layouts, marker positions, viewports, ranges and colours are stored against your credential — not in the browser — so the view is the same on the next machine.
Yours, and occasionally everyone's
Sharing that cannot surprise you
Share everything you build
Dashboards, maps, floor plans, highlight groups — anything you compose can be handed to a colleague as a finished view, and what it references travels with it: share a dashboard and the highlight groups its log stream uses arrive too, so the recipient sees exactly what you see.
Read-only, deliberately
A share hands someone a view, never a pen. There are no shared-edit rights to misconfigure: the owner stays the only writer, so nothing you built can be changed underneath you by somebody you shared it with.
Addressed to a person, not a link
Shares are addressed to a colleague rather than handed out as a URL that works for whoever finds it. Settings shows you your own identifier to pass on, next to a display name that is a convenience and nothing more.
Filed your way on both sides
Labels are yours alone, so the labels you put on something shared with you stay private to you. The camera registry is shared by everyone; how you file it is not.
Make it yours
- Multiple languages, switched instantly — remembered in the browser and stored against your account, so your choice follows you to another machine.
- Light and dark, plus a theme builder: set the hue and saturation behind every background, border and text colour, and the accent used for primary buttons, links, focus rings and the active nav item.
- Two ways in — a shared key, or a personal sign-in. The console always says which one you are on, because that is what decides whose dashboards, maps and cameras you are looking at.
