Entity page

Each entity has a dedicated page that contains 4 tabs (by default):

Overviewโ€‹

The overview tab is a dashboard, used to display widgets related to the entity.

By default, each entity will have a Details widget, which displays the entity's properties and their values, and other metadata.

Additional widgets can be added by clicking on the + Widget button in the top right corner of the dashboard.

By default, all related entities in the same direction will automatically appear in this table. This is true for both forward-related and backward-related entities. Indirectly-related entities will not appear.

For example:

Workflow Run has a forward-relation to Deployment Workflow, which has a forward-relation to Service, which has a backward-relation to Deployment.
Since we changed direction midway, this relation is indirect:

When looking at the entity page of a certain Workflow Run, the related entities Deployment Workflow and Service automatically appear, but Deployment does not, since its relation is in the other direction.

You can add additional entities to the Related entities table by clicking on the + button above the table.

In the form that appears, the Related blueprint dropdown will display all entities that are related in any way to the current entity. In our Workflow Run example above, we can use this button to add a Deployment tab to our widget.

Show/hide columnsโ€‹

By default, the related entities table will display the following columns for each entity:
Title, Last update time, and Creation time.
Other properties will be hidden by default.

You can always customize the table to hide/show columns.

Runsโ€‹

If the entity's blueprint has any actions configured, the Runs tab will display their history log, results, log streams, and more.

Audit logโ€‹

This tab displays all actions (including CRUD) that caused any change to the entity's configuration.
For each change, useful metadata will be shown such as the initiator, diff before and after the change, relevant blueprint, and more.

Additional tabsโ€‹

Visual propertiesโ€‹

Some of the available property types are visual by nature. When defining one of these properties in a blueprint, an additional tab will be automatically created in each entity page related to this blueprint, displaying the property's content in the relevant visual format.

The following property types are supported:

Scorecardsโ€‹

If the entity's blueprint has any scorecards configured, a Scorecards tab will be automatically created in the entity page.

The tab will display the entity's compliance status with each of its scorecards.
