Navigating the Platform

Learn how to move around the Buildpad.ai interface.

Platform Structure

Buildpad.ai is organized in a simple hierarchy. You start at the top and drill down into more specific areas:

• Organization — Your team workspace — contains projects and members.
• Project — An application you’re building — contains environment details, builds, and microapps.
• Microapp — A domain-focused app inside a project, with its own detail and build views.

The Sidebar

The left sidebar adapts to show relevant navigation links based on where you are:

Global

• Home — Returns to your organizations area.

At the Organization Level

• Overview — Organization details and summary
• Projects — List of all projects
• Members — Team member management
• Roles — Organization role definitions and access control

At the Project Level

• Details — Project information and settings
• DaaS — Cloud environment status
• Builds — Build/deploy history and logs
• Microapps — List and manage microapps in the project

At the Microapp Level

• Detail — Microapp metadata and configuration
• Builds — Microapp-specific build/deploy history

Admin (Permission-Based)

If you have host-level permissions, an Admin section appears:

• Users
• Host Roles
• Quotas

Switching Between Scopes

The header provides dropdown switchers to quickly jump between different levels without navigating back through the hierarchy:

• Organization Switcher — Switch between organizations you belong to and see your role in each.
• Project Switcher — Switch between projects within the current organization.
• Microapp Switcher — Switch between microapps in the current project, search microapps, or create a new one.
