A Tour of the Dashboard
The dashboard is your control center. Here's what each area is for, grouped the way the sidebar organizes them.
Build
- HiveMind — the AI copilot. Describe outcomes; it builds bots, integrations, and workflows.
- Bots / My Bots — create, edit, and test your bots.
- Orchestrator — the visual workflow builder.
- Hive IDE — a code-first editor for writing HiveLang directly.
Connect
- Integrations — connect Slack, Gmail, Notion, GitHub, and more.
- Connect API — turn your own HTTP API into bot capabilities.
- Knowledge — upload documents your bots can search.
Ship & consume
- Developer → API Keys — keys your app uses to call bots/workflows.
- Developer → Embed — snippets to drop a bot onto a website.
- HiveStore — publish bots or install ones others have shared.
Observe
- Live Logs — real-time request/error stream.
- Analytics / Insights — volume, success rate, latency.
- Usage — credit consumption against your monthly pool.
Account & team
- Billing — your plan, quota, and upgrades.
- Settings — profile, security (2FA), preferences.
- Workspaces / Team / Roles & Permissions — collaborate and control access.
Where to start
New here? Go HiveMind (or Bots → New Bot) to build, Integrations to connect your apps, and API Keys when you're ready to call your bot from your own product. The Getting Started guide walks the happy path.
Quick tip
Use the test pane to iterate quickly. Every change you make is live — no need to save first.
Important
API keys are shown only once. Store them securely and never commit them to version control.
Best practice
Test your bot with edge cases before deployment. Try empty inputs, long messages, and special characters.
Pro tip
Chain multiple specialized bots in a workflow for better results than one general-purpose bot.
