Key Features:
- View all resources of a specific type in one place
- Filter and search through large resource collections
- Sort by any column for easy organization
- Select single or multiple resources for bulk operations
- Customize which columns are displayed
- Create new resources (for supported types)

Using Filters
Filters help you find specific resources quickly, especially when managing hundreds or thousands of resources across multiple accounts.
Opening the Filter Panel
- Click the Search (🔍) icon in the toolbar
- The filter panel appears below the toolbar
Building a Filter
Filters are built using three components:
-
Select an Attribute - Choose which field to filter on
- Examples: Name, Status, Region, Account, Created Date
-
Choose an Operator - Select how to match values
- Text fields: equals, contains, starts with, ends with
- Numbers: equals, greater than, less than, between
- Dates: before, after, between
- Boolean: true/false
-
Enter Value(s) - Provide the value to match
Multiple Filters
- Add multiple conditions by clicking “Add Filter”
- All conditions must match (AND logic)
- Each filter narrows the results further
Filter Examples
Example 1: Find all running machines in a specific region
- Filter 1: Status equals “running”
- Filter 2: Region equals “us-east-1”
Example 2: Find resources created in the last 7 days
- Filter: Created after “[7 days ago]”
Example 3: Find machines with “web” in the name
- Filter: Name contains “web”
Applying and Removing Filters
- Apply: Filters take effect immediately as you build them
- Remove: Click the Search Off (🔍❌) icon to clear all filters
Tip: When working with large resource collections, use filters before scrolling through pages to improve performance.
Sorting Resources
Sort resources to organize them by any column:
How to Sort
- Click a column header - Columns with sort icons are sortable
- First click: Sorts ascending (A-Z, 0-9, oldest-newest)
- Second click: Sorts descending (Z-A, 9-0, newest-oldest)
Sort Indicators
- Active column: Shows an arrow indicating direction
- Arrow up (▲): Ascending order
- Arrow down (▼): Descending order
Sort Persistence
Your sort preferences are saved and will persist:
- When navigating to other pages and back
- Across browser sessions
- Until you change the sort order
Selecting Resources
Select resources to perform actions like viewing details or deleting.
Selection Methods
Single Selection:
- Click the checkbox next to a resource
- Or click anywhere on the row (not on links)
Multiple Selection:
- Click checkboxes for multiple resources
- Hold Ctrl (Windows/Linux) or Cmd (Mac) and click
Select All on Page:
- Click the checkbox in the table header
- Selects all resources on the current page only
Deselect All:
- Click the header checkbox again when all are selected
- Or click individual checkboxes to deselect
Selection Behavior
- Persists across pages: Your selection stays even when you navigate to different pages
- Indeterminate state: Header checkbox shows a dash (—) when some but not all rows are selected
- Visual feedback: Selected rows have a light blue background

Working with Selected Resources
Once resources are selected:
- View Details: Select one resource, click the Open Details button

- Clear Selection: Click the checkboxes again or select other resources
Pagination
Navigate through large collections of resources efficiently.
Pagination Controls
Located in the table footer:
Rows per Page:
- Choose: 10, 25, 50, or 100 rows
- Your preference is saved for future visits
- Larger page sizes may load slower
Page Navigation:
- ◄ button: Go to previous page
- ► button: Go to next page
- Page counter: Shows current position (e.g., “1-10 of 150”)
Pagination Tips
- Large datasets: Use smaller page sizes (10-25) for faster loading
- Finding resources: Use filters instead of paging through hundreds of results
- Selection: Remember that “Select All” only selects the current page
Customizing Columns
Show or hide table columns based on your needs.
How to Customize
- Click the Attribute Selector (⚙️) icon in the toolbar
- A menu appears with all available columns
- Check columns to show, uncheck to hide
- Close the menu - changes apply immediately
Column Options
Available columns vary by resource type but typically include:
Common columns (all resource types):
- Name/ID
- Provider (AWS, DigitalOcean, Akamai, etc.)
- Account
- Region
- Status
- Created date
Resource-specific columns:
- Machines: CPU count, Memory, IP addresses, Machine type
- Block Storage: Size, Attached machine
- VPCs: CIDR block, Subnets
- Firewalls: Number of rules
Tips for Column Management
- Hide unused columns to reduce horizontal scrolling
- Show technical details when troubleshooting
- Keep name and status visible for quick identification
Loading States
Visual indicators help you understand when data is loading or unavailable.
Loading Indicators
- Skeleton rows: Appear while fetching resources
- Disabled controls: Buttons gray out during operations
- Empty state: “No resources to display” when no results match
Performance Considerations
Resource caching:
- Resources are cached in your browser for faster navigation
- Cache updates automatically when resources change
- Use the Reload button to force a fresh fetch
When loading is slow:
- Reduce page size (e.g., from 100 to 25 rows)
- Apply filters to narrow results
- Check your internet connection
- Some cloud providers may respond slowly
