The Admin GUI
The Admin GUI is a web application that can be used to interact and manage Velociraptor. The GUI allows users to schedule new collections, edit existing artifacts or write new ones and launch hunts.
Let’s take a quick tour of the GUI.
Themes
Velociraptor offers many themes. You can change between them by clicking on the user’s avatar at the top right corner to show the user preferences, and select your favorite theme.
Velociraptor remembers each users preferences and will automatically show the correct theme when logging in.
The Welcome screen
The Velociraptor landing page offers some links to commonly used tasks within the application.
Of interest is the link to View Server Configuration. This allows
administrators to set server metadata such as secrets to interact with
other systems.
You can customize the Welcome screen by editing the Server.Internal.Welcome artifact.
The Dashboard
The Dashboard can be accessed from the Home icon on the sidebar. The dashboard shows the current state of the deployment at a high level.
The dashboard is divided into two parts. On the left, the total memory and CPU used by all frontends is down over the past day. On the right, the total number of currently connected clients is shown.
You can customize the Server Dashboard screen by editing the
Server.Monitor.Health artifact. The artifact specifies a template
containing markdown and using the Golang Template Language. You can
also run arbitrary VQL in dashboards!
