Visualize your Turbine Applications in the Meroxa Dashboard
This is a legacy platform changelog. The information reflected here may not represent current functionality and some links may be broken.
Turbine streaming apps can now be visualized in the Meroxa Dashboard! A recent Meroxa CLI release v2.10.0 introduces updated output for meroxa apps describe and meroxa apps list which now includes URLs to access the Meroxa Dashboard. We have also updated output for meroxa resources list for consistency.
Each Turbine data app deployed to the Meroxa platform has a graphical representation available on the Meroxa Dashboard. The application visualization shows all subcomponents, such as the Resources and Connectors the Meroxa Platform stitches together, as coded within your Turbine code.
To gain a better understanding of your Turbine data app and its components, visit the Dashboard application detail page.
Accessing the Application Detail Page
You can view your application visualization via the application detail page. Here are two ways to access it:
CLI
You will see the url for the application detail page when running any of the following meroxa CLI commands:
meroxa apps deploy
The URL will appear once deployment succeeds.
meroxa apps describe
This can be used while working in the Turbine data app local project directory using the Meroxa CLI. You can also run meroxa apps describe <appname> if you are working outside of that local project directory.

Dashboard
Within the Meroxa Dashboard you can access the application detail page by navigating to https://dashboard.meroxa.io/apps. Next, click on the name of the desired Turbine data app to see its application detail page.
On the new application detail page, you will find information about the application including details about sub components, such as resource names, resource states, and the source or destination table names used in your data stream.
