Resource Live Insights & Operations
The Live tab in Facets gives real-time insights and operations for a deployed resource: pipeline activity, Kubernetes dashboard, Terraform outputs, and metrics.
The Live tab is the real-time view of a deployed resource: what version is running, the state of its Kubernetes workloads, its Terraform outputs, and its metrics. From here you can roll back a version, restart pods, scale, and read connection details without leaving the resource.
Pipeline activity
The current state and version history, split into three streams:
- Build registered: changes to the artifact being deployed.
- Blueprint activity: changes and deployments from the blueprint configuration.
- Override activity: modifications applied as environment-level overrides.
Each stream shows the live version (currently deployed), the release-pending version (queued), and an expandable version history with timestamps and statuses. The history table has a rollback action to revert to an earlier version.
Kubernetes dashboard
A live view of the resource's Kubernetes objects:
- Workloads: Pods (status, age, restarts, readiness, actions) plus Deployments, DaemonSets, StatefulSets, CronJobs, and Jobs.
- Storage: Persistent Volume Claims and Persistent Volumes, with allocations, statuses, and capacities.
- Autoscaling: Horizontal Pod Autoscalers and their scaling metrics.
Pod actions are Rolling Restart (gracefully restart pods to apply updates or recover) and Refresh (update the pod list). Where the resource is managed by an Argo Rollout, two more actions act on the rollout as a whole:
- Promote: graduate the canary or preview version to stable and scale down the previous stable pods (Argo Rollouts blue-green and canary strategies).
- Abort: stop the rollout in progress and scale the canary down, leaving the previous stable version serving traffic.
Terraform outputs
The outputs from the resource's Terraform configuration: interfaces (endpoints and connection details it exposes) and attributes (key-value properties). Each output has actions to copy its name and its dollar reference ($ref) for use in other configurations.
Using prompt
Get the runtime outputs of service/api in dev.or
Using command
raptor get resource-outputs -p PROJECT -e ENVIRONMENT service/NAMEReturns the same interfaces and attributes for a deployed resource. -o json gives the
raw values, which is the form to use when another command or a script needs to read them.

Monitoring dashboards
Grafana-powered dashboards for CPU usage, memory usage, and pod restarts, so you can track resource health and troubleshoot restarts.
Additional dashboards
Depending on the resource type, more dashboards may appear, such as ingress overview (traffic routing, load balancing, external access points) and historical logs (past logs for auditing and debugging). The set adapts to the selected resource.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Changes are not reflecting in the Kubernetes dashboard | Click Refresh to update the pod list. If it persists, check the cluster's connectivity and health. |
| A version is not available for rollback | Confirm the version is listed in Version History. If it is not there, it is not eligible for rollback. |
| Terraform outputs are missing or wrong | Check that the Terraform apply succeeded. Re-run it if needed and refresh the Live tab. |
Resource center
The Resource Center is the environment-level hub in Facets for listing resources and inspecting their live monitoring, overrides, and release history.
Overriding Resources
Override resource configuration per environment in Facets without changing the blueprint, using Form or JSON mode, version history, and rollback.
