Layout

When you log into Synatic, the main user interface/dashboard will look as illustrated in the below images.

  • The left-hand menu column is where the Operations Views, Gateway, Global, and Solutions are organized, managed, created, and selected.

  • The middle menu bar gives access to the dashboard and monitoring functions of various components such as:

    • Community – shows the latest articles on the Community site.

    • Event Logs - shows details of all the actions performed on the system.

    • Runs – shows details of all the runs that have been performed.

    • Run Stats - shows stats about the runs completed as well as all Run errors.

    • Record Stats - shows stats about all the completed records as well as records errors.

  • The right-hand side of the menu bar gives access to managing account Profiles, Settings, Logs, Storage Stats, and Linked Orgs.


Navigating

Expanding items

Menu items with preceding arrows can be expanded or collapsed by clicking on the arrow.

Creating new objects

New objects of a particular type can be created by clicking the three menu dots (⋮) adjacent to the menu items.

Opening and editing objects

To edit objects, click the three menu dots (⋮) adjacent to it and click the Edit button.


Searching for an object

The searching feature applies to flows, buffers, connections, relays, parameters, API builder and operations views.

In this example, we are searching for a flow.

To search for a flow, go to the Search bar on the top left corner of the web page as shown in the below image. It is above the Operations Views tab.

To search for a flow using a keyword, type a keyword of the flow’s title, name or description as circled in red in the below image. In this example, a search using “flow” as a keyword was done and it returned the flows which include the keyword.

To search for a flow using a flow’s title, type in the full name of the flow as illustrated in the below image.

To search for a flow using a flow’s title with white spaces , type the full name of the flow with double quotations ( " " ) as shown in the below image.

  • It performs an OR search.

  • It replaces most punctuations with delimiters, e.g. A hyphen will be replaced with a white space.

  • It uses the snowball stemming algorithm, e.g. If you search for a flow name such as “currentdates”, it will return the first record because it is a plural of something that exists in the object/ flows.
