Add and Configure Services

Services are the building blocks of your application stack. Each service corresponds to a containerized workload — a database, a web server, a cache, a message queue, and so on.

Add a service

  1. In the Builder toolbar, click the + button.
  2. A catalog panel opens on the right, listing available services grouped by category.
  3. Search or browse to find the service you want.
  4. Click the service to place it on the canvas.

The new block appears on the canvas and is automatically selected, opening its configuration panel.


Configure a service

When you click a block on the canvas, the configuration panel opens on the right side. It shows:

  • Name — the service's display name on the canvas
  • Status — current health (Healthy / Unhealthy / Pending)
  • Version — the chart version being deployed
  • Chart — the underlying Helm chart reference

Below that is a properties form with settings specific to the service. Common field types:

Field typeHow to use it
TextType a value directly
NumberEnter an integer or decimal
ToggleSwitch on or off
TextareaPaste multi-line config (e.g. JSON, YAML)

Fill in any required fields (marked with an asterisk), then click Save to apply the configuration.


Open a service's web UI

Some services (databases, dashboards, etc.) expose a web interface. If the external link icon is shown in the panel header, click it to open the service's UI in a new tab.


Delete a service

Click the trash icon in the configuration panel to remove the block from the canvas. This also removes all connections to and from that block.

caution

Deleting a block from the canvas and then saving/deploying will remove that service from the running cluster. Make sure you don't need its data before deleting.


Close the panel

Click the × button at the top of the configuration panel to close it without making changes.
