Using Envoy
Home dashboard
Read the stat cards and Recent Runs table on the Envoy home screen and navigate to every main area from the sidebar.
Home dashboard
The home dashboard is the page you land on after signing in (the / route, labeled Dashboard in the sidebar). It gives operators a compact overview of the orchestrator — how many Tasks are active, what is running right now, and the most recent Run activity — with links into the detailed screens.
Screen overview
The page header reads Dashboard with the description "Overview of your orchestrator." Below it sit four stat cards:
- Active Tasks — the number of Tasks with status
active. - Running Now — Runs currently in the
runningstate. - Total Runs — the number of Runs in the loaded overview.
- Scheduled — the number of configured Triggers.
Under the cards, the Recent Runs panel lists the eight most recent Runs with these columns:
| Column | Contents |
|---|---|
| Task | Name of the Task that produced the Run |
| Status | Run status badge |
| Trigger | How the Run started (its trigger type) |
| Duration | Elapsed time |
| Started | Start timestamp |
Each row is clickable and opens the Run's detail page. The View all button above the table opens the full Runs list, which supports filtering and pagination. Before any Run exists, the panel shows "No activity yet — Runs will appear here once you execute a task or job."
To navigate from home
The left sidebar is available on every screen, grouped into three sections:
- Dashboard, Jobs, Runs — the day-to-day operator screens.
- Templates, Tasks, Connectors, Triggers — the building blocks: Job Templates, the Task library, stored Connectors, and cron Triggers.
- Data Explorer, Executors, Users, AI References, Settings — tooling and administration. Users and AI References appear only for admin and superadmin roles.
Below the navigation, the AI Assistant button (⌘⇧A) opens the AI assistant panel, and the footer shows your username, role badge, and a log-out button.
Home dashboard vs. Job Dashboards
This screen is the application home — a fixed overview of the whole orchestrator. It is not the same thing as a Dashboard attached to a Job: those are authored per Job from YAML, can contain domain-specific widgets (forms, charts, field mappings), and live at their own URLs under a Job. Use the home dashboard to spot recent activity; use Job Dashboards to operate a specific Job.
