Kestra User Interface Welcome Page

Click Start Product Tour to open the Kestra Guided Tour, which guides you through creating and executing your first flow step by step.

The UI also includes a No Code editor for building flows and dashboards visually without writing YAML — available from the Flows and Dashboard pages.

The left menu includes the following pages:

  • The Dashboards page shows visualizations of flow execution data and metrics.
  • The Flows page lists all your flows, where you can create, edit, and execute them.
  • The Executions page lets you inspect and manage previous executions.
  • The Logs page shows all task logs from previous executions.
  • The Namespaces page lists all namespaces and lets you set namespace-level configurations.
  • The Blueprints page provides a catalog of ready-to-use flow examples.
  • The Plugins page provides a catalog of plugins you can use inside your flows.
  • The Tenant page provides a system overview, the full KV Store, triggers, and concurrency limits.

Kestra Enterprise Edition adds the following pages to the UI:

  • The Apps page lists your Apps and lets you create new ones.
  • The Tests page shows your flow unit tests where you can view, edit, and create assertions without creating executions.
  • The Assets page lets you manage reusable assets available to your flows and apps.
  • The Tenant page provides a system overview, KV Store, secrets and credentials, triggers, audit logs, concurrency limits, the Apps Catalog, and IAM.
  • The Instance page includes sections for Services, Versioned Plugins, tenant management, Worker Groups, Kill Switch, and Announcements.
