Dashboard

The Oblien dashboard provides a visual interface for managing workspaces, monitoring usage, and configuring your account.

Access it at oblien.com/dashboard.

Workspace list

The main dashboard page shows all your workspaces with:

• Status indicator - Running (green), Stopped (gray), Paused (yellow), Error (red)
• Quick actions - Start, stop, restart, delete
• Resource summary - CPU, memory, disk allocation
• Image - Base image used
• Uptime - How long the workspace has been running

Create a workspace

1. Click Create Workspace
2. Select an image (e.g., node-20, python-3.12)
3. Configure resources (CPU, memory, disk)
4. Set mode (permanent or temporary)
5. Optionally set a startup command, environment variables, and network rules
6. Click Create

The modal shows real-time quota validation - you'll see warnings if your resource selections exceed your plan limits.
