Edit a View

Editing Filters

Using the example from Create a View, once you are looking at the new filter view you created, you can edit the filters by clicking the Filter button in the toolbar to open the Filters panel.

After clicking into the Filters panel, you can adjust existing filters or add new ones to refine the components displayed in your diagram.

See below

As stated previously, filters are a powerful way to get granular with your architecture and focus on specific areas of interest.

Viewing Component Details

After opening a view, click any component to display its properties and relationships.

Editing Components

Add child components or rename existing elements to reflect infrastructure changes.

Editing Relationships

Click on a relationship line between components to modify its properties or change its type.

Saving Changes

And as always, remember to save your changes by clicking the menu in the top left corner and selecting Save.

Display Settings

You can always update and edit how you view these filters via clicking into the Display Setting modal in the top right:

In the General tab of the Display Settings modal, you can control how the canvas behaves and how information is visually presented.

• Toggle Zoom on click to automatically focus on elements when selected.
• Enable or disable the mini-map for easier navigation across large diagrams.
• Show or hide node names directly on components.
• Display node classifications (type labels) on each component.
• Automatically group similar components using Create virtual groups.
• Use layout actions to:
  • Expand or collapse all groups.
  • Merge or split external links.
  • Show or hide internal links.
• Apply or cancel your changes before closing the modal.

In the Components tab, you can control which categories of infrastructure components are visible on the canvas.

• Toggle visibility for specific component categories such as:
  • API Services
  • Compute Services
  • Containers and Orchestration
  • Data Processing
  • Networking
  • Monitoring and Observability
  • And many more.
• Quickly reduce visual noise by hiding categories that are not relevant to your current task.
• Focus on specific layers of your architecture by selectively enabling only the services you want to analyze.

In the Relationships tab, you can manage which connection types are displayed between components.

• Toggle visibility for relationship types such as:
  • Connects To
  • Deploys To
  • Load Balances
  • Managed By
  • Publishes To
  • Triggers
  • And many other interaction types.
• Hide less relevant relationship types to simplify complex diagrams.
• Surface specific interaction patterns to better understand dependencies and traffic flow.
