# The Aetherfy dashboard

## What the Aetherfy dashboard is for

The Aetherfy dashboard, at [app.aetherfy.com](https://app.aetherfy.com/dashboard),
is one of three ways to work with your account, beside the
[`afy` CLI](/cli) and the REST APIs ([vectors](/vectors/api), [agents](/agents/api)).
They act on the same account through the same control plane, so an agent paused in
the dashboard reads as paused in `afy status`, and a secret set with `afy secrets set`
is listed on the Secrets page.

The pages in this section are a reference, one per area: what the area shows,
every badge and status label it can show and what each means, the CLI command and
API route that does the same as each action, and what the area deliberately does
not do. They name labels exactly as the dashboard renders them, and the docs build
checks every quoted label against the dashboard's source.

## The Aetherfy dashboard's sidebar

In the order the sidebar lists them:

| Label | Address | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| `Dashboard` | `/dashboard` | The overview: the last 24 hours of compute across your agents — see [Compute metrics](/agents/metrics) |
| `Agents` | `/dashboard/agents` | [Agents](/dashboard/agents) — the inventory, each agent's deployments and logs, and the YAML configurator |
| `Workspaces` | `/dashboard/workspaces` | [Workspaces](/dashboard/workspaces) |
| `Secrets` | `/dashboard/secrets` | [Secrets](/dashboard/secrets) |
| `Database` | `/dashboard/database` | [Database](/dashboard/database) — collections and the vector explorer |
| `Analytics` | `/dashboard/analytics` | Compute figures over longer windows — see [Compute metrics](/agents/metrics) |
| `Infrastructure` | `/dashboard/infrastructure` | Your agents and collections by region, with their health. Shown only on plans with multi-region replication, Performance and above |
| `Usage` | `/dashboard/billing` | [Usage and billing](/dashboard/usage-and-billing) |
| `Settings` | `/dashboard/settings` | [Settings](/dashboard/settings) — identity, API keys, billing, developer, integrations |
| `Support` | `/dashboard/support` | A form to Aetherfy support; your account details are attached to it |

## Where the Aetherfy dashboard gets its answers

Agent state in the Aetherfy dashboard is what the platform last recorded, marked
`last known`, not a live check of your machines; a live read is `afy status` or
`GET /api/v1/agents/{agent}/status` ([lifecycle API](/agents/api-lifecycle)).
When the control plane cannot be reached, the dashboard says so rather than
showing an empty account: the Agents area falls back to its stored inventory with
every action disabled, and a list that could not be read is never presented as a
list with nothing in it.
