Dashboard
Every web service has seven tabs. Here is what each one is for.
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Live deployment history, current status, and the basics of your service: type, CPU, memory, port, disk.
From here you can Trigger Deploy, Cancel an in-flight build, or Rollback to any previous successful deploy.
Status badge
Section titled “Status badge”The colored badge next to the service name reflects its current state:
| Badge | State | One-line meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 🟡 | DEPLOYING | Building image or rolling out a new container. |
| 🟢 | RUNNING | Live and serving traffic. |
| 🔵 | STARTING | Coming up after Start or restart. |
| 🔵 | RESTARTING | Container restart in progress. |
| ⚪ | STOPPING | Stop in progress. |
| ⚪ | STOPPED | Manually stopped — compute released, env vars and disk kept. |
| 💤 | SLEEPING | Idled out; next request wakes it. |
| 🔴 | FAILED | Build or runtime failure — previous version keeps serving. |
For the full semantics and transitions, see Runtime → Deploy states.
Metrics
Section titled “Metrics”Live charts of CPU, memory and instance count. Pick a window: 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2 hours. Charts auto-refresh while the service is running.
Application logs from your container.
- Live tail — real-time stream of new lines as they arrive.
- Time windows — view the last 1h, 4h, 24h, 2 days, 7 days, 14 days or 30 days.
- Pause / Resume the live stream while you read something.
- Download the current view as a file.
- Filter by level — error, warn, info, debug, trace.
A terminal inside your running container — handy for debugging, running one-off scripts or checking files. Available while the service is running.
Environment
Section titled “Environment”Manage environment variables and secrets.
- Add, edit and delete variables inline.
- Values are masked by default; click the eye to reveal.
- Bulk import from a
.envfile, or export the current set back to.env. - Built-in secret generator for tokens and keys.
When saving, you pick how aggressively the change applies:
| Mode | Effect |
|---|---|
| Save | Stored only. Applied on the next restart or deploy. |
| Save & Deploy | Restart the container now with the new values. |
| Save & Rebuild & Deploy | Build a new image and deploy. Use when the change affects build-time. |
Visible only when persistent storage is enabled. Shows disk size, mount path and current usage. The disk survives restarts and redeploys — perfect for SQLite, uploaded files or local caches.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”All configuration for the service, grouped:
- Domain — your subdomain on
runsite.app. - Custom Domains — attach your own domain, verify DNS, automatic TLS. See Domains.
- Build & Deploy — branch, build / start / pre-deploy commands, Dockerfile path, root directory, the Auto-deploy on push toggle.
- Scaling — min and max instances. See Scaling & resources.
