* docs(introduction): refresh for the redesigned UI and replace screenshots Bring the Getting Started Introduction page in line with the current product: - Add the Security top-level view to the navigation list and a dedicated Security section with a new screenshot. - Correct the Fleet tab names (Snapshots, Status, Map, Deployments, Routing, Federation, Actions, Secrets). - Split Settings out from security and list the current nine setting groups (Security graduated to its own view). - Refine the navigation paragraph so role, tier, and local-vs-remote context read accurately. Replace all four existing screenshots (Home, stack workspace, Fleet, Resources) with fresh captures of the redesigned UI and add a Security overview screenshot. * docs(configuration): document advanced env vars and clarify deployment vs runtime config Add an Advanced environment variables section (TRIVY_BIN, SENCHO_MESH_SUBNET, GITSOURCE_MAX_CLONE_BYTES, SENCHO_PUBLIC_URL, SENCHO_COMPOSE_STALL_TIMEOUT_MS) and reframe the intro to separate deployment-time configuration from the runtime settings that live in the in-app Settings Hub. Cross-link the pilot-agent variables to the Pilot Agent page instead of duplicating them. * docs(sso): refresh SSO Setup Guide and SSO & LDAP reference for the redesigned UI Refresh both SSO documentation pages against the current product and the redesigned settings UI. - Correct the navigation path to Settings -> Access -> SSO on both pages. - Fix the "Require 2FA on SSO sign-in" toggle location to Settings -> Personal -> Account. - Describe the login-page experience (the Local / LDAP toggle and the branded OIDC buttons under the "Or continue with" divider) and the SSO panel masthead (SCOPE, PROVIDERS, ENABLED). - Replace all six SSO screenshots with fresh captures of the redesigned UI. * docs(features): refresh the Features Overview page for the redesigned UI Rewrite docs/features/overview.mdx to mirror the current Features navigation grouping (Stacks, Deployment, Resources, Observability, Fleet, Automation, Security & Identity) and add the recently shipped capabilities surfaced in the redesign: Stack Dossier, Drift Detection, Compose Doctor, Compose Networking, Environment & secrets guardrails, Storage portability, Health-Gated Updates, Fleet Dossier, and the dedicated Security page. Correct stale claims (the file explorer now gates writes on stack edit permission, not an admin role; downloads are a read action; bulk label assign now spans nodes) and standardize the tier callouts so partly paid features read as "Admiral adds X". Replace the three pre-redesign screenshots and add a Security overview banner, all captured from a populated fleet. * docs(features): refresh the Appearance page for the redesigned UI Add fresh screenshots and a troubleshooting section to the Appearance page, verified against the live product. - Add four screenshots: the Theme card (live preview, mode, accent, and fine-tune sliders), the top-bar quick switcher, the Typography card, and the Display card. - Refresh the Density screenshot used by the Settings reference page. - State that the quick switcher also covers text size, and that the contrast, border, and glow sliders stay in Settings. - Add a Troubleshooting accordion covering per-browser persistence, resets to defaults, cross-operator scope, and the quick-switcher versus full-Settings split. * docs(introduction): refresh screenshots and correct stale content * docs(reference): refresh the Settings Reference page for the redesigned UI Replace all seven stale screenshots with fresh 1920x1080 captures. Add five new screenshots for the sections that previously had none. Content changes: - Sidebar table: rename Infrastructure "Fleet Mesh" entry to "Fleet"; add "Image update checks" to the Automation group list - Fleet section: rename heading to match registry label; add the Documentation snapshots subsection (snapshot_documentation toggle) - Container Alerts: add screenshot - Image update checks: add the full section (Registry checks table, scheduling mode, interval presets, cron expression support) - Stacks / Deploy Guardrails: add screenshot - Recovery: add the full section (System health snapshot, Environment preflight checks, Safe actions, Command-line recovery table) * docs(sso): refresh screenshots for SSO quickstart and feature pages * docs: refresh Features Overview screenshots and content Replace all 4 hero screenshots with fresh 1920x1080 production captures. Correct security posture state names (Action needed / Monitoring / Secure), add the Policies tab to the Security section tab list, mention the Simple mode in Scheduled operations, and update all alt text to match the new screenshots. * docs: refresh Appearance page screenshots and correct quick-switcher scope Replace all four Appearance screenshots with fresh production captures. Fix the quick-switcher control list: remove fonts (not present in the popover), add visual style and readability which are. Add Log chip color to the Display section. Update all screenshot alt text to match new captures. * docs: refresh stack management page with current UI and anatomy tabs * docs: fix convert-tab-error screenshot with fully visible error toast * docs: convert troubleshooting section to AccordionGroup format * docs(quickstart): refresh screenshots and align dashboard description Replace all three first-boot and dashboard screenshots with current UI. Add Security to the top navigation list, update gauge and Stack health descriptions to reflect sparklines and column detail, and align Configuration Status wording with the Introduction page. * docs(editor): rewrite anatomy panel, replace all screenshots - Correct the anatomy panel tab inventory: the panel has eight tabs (Anatomy, Activity, Dossier, Drift always; Environment, Networking, Doctor, Storage when the node advertises the matching capability), not three as previously documented - Add table describing all eight tabs with capability gates and links to dedicated feature pages - Add anatomy-tabs.png screenshot showing the scrollable tab row - Note the Doctor severity dot (red for blocker, amber for high-risk) - Remove the stale Markdown-export subsection; Dossier and Activity are now covered in the tab table - Replace all six stale screenshots with fresh 1920x1080 captures - Replace the compose diff preview screenshot * docs(files): refresh Files & Volumes screenshots and fix context-menu alt text Replace all 9 stale screenshots on the Files & Volumes page with fresh captures from the production node. Fix three alt-text strings that did not match the live UI: removed hardcoded octal value 644, and added the Duplicate, Copy to, and Move to entries missing from the context-menu alt text. * docs: rewrite Stack Activity page with full event categories and fresh screenshots Expands the event category table from 5 to 10 entries to cover drift detected, drift resolved, update started, health gate passed, and health gate failed. Adds a live-disconnected-state section, a background-actor attribution table, and a corrected troubleshooting accordion covering the WebSocket reconnect case. Replaces both stale screenshots with fresh 1920x1080 captures from the production node. * docs(drift): rewrite drift detection page with screenshots and full coverage Full rewrite of the Drift Detection feature page. Adds two previously undocumented finding types (network-undeclared, network-missing), expands the temporal section to distinguish the raw-file hash from the parsed-model hash, documents the two-layer spatial-engine and ledger architecture, explains when the ledger is reconciled (post-deploy vs manual re-check vs tab open), adds Activity timeline integration note, introduces a Limitations section (no background scanner, port-range caveat, history cap, advisory-only enforcement), expands Troubleshooting from five entries to seven using the AccordionGroup convention, and adds four production screenshots. * docs(drift): use CardGroup for Related section * docs(dossier): rewrite Stack Dossier page with full feature coverage * docs(networking): rewrite Compose Networking page with full feature coverage * docs(doctor): rewrite Compose Doctor with full 30-rule reference, screenshots, and cross-links * docs(networking): add production screenshots and correct alt text Adds 7 production screenshots for all sections of the Compose Networking page and updates the four placeholder alt texts written before screenshots were taken to match what the actual images show (arr-net external badge, swag service with 443/tcp and 80/tcp, single-service exposure intent row). Also adds the full-panel overview image at the top of the page. * docs(environment-guardrails): rewrite with project env file, env file status, and screenshots * docs(storage): rewrite Storage Portability page with screenshots and full coverage Rewrites compose-storage.mdx from a 61-line sketch into a complete reference page. Key additions: Where to find it section with screenshot, full storage inventory section documenting all mount type/access/status chips and the Linux owner display, expanded portability verdict section with per-reason detail and edge-case caveats (read-only binds, symlink escapes, anonymous volume risks), snapshot coverage section with admin scope and remote-node behavior, Findings in Doctor cross-reference, and six troubleshooting accordions covering tab visibility, bind status, external named volumes, render errors, and snapshot coverage states. Adds two production screenshots: storage-tab.png and storage-node-bound.png. * docs(stack-labels): rewrite with accurate permissions, capability gate, dry run, live preview, and color conflict docs * docs: rewrite Stack Sidebar page with accurate feature coverage Rewrites the Stack Sidebar documentation page to match the current UI. Key changes: - Fix branding header description (shows logo + version, not just version) - Fix bulk mode icon description (stacked-rows, not square) - Add cross-node search section (fan-out behavior, Other nodes section, unreachable-node warnings, click-to-switch navigation) - Update Labels submenu description (inline New label creation, Manage labels link) - Note that Delete only appears when the user has delete permission - Remove the auto-update implication from Schedule task description - Rewrite the Activity ticker section with the full 6-state priority cascade table; remove the non-existent IDLE state; correct pulsing-dot behavior - Replace all 7 stale screenshots with fresh production screenshots - Add new sidebar-cross-node-search.png screenshot * docs(atomic-deployments): refresh screenshot and document project env files, rollback readiness, and recovery actions * docs(atomic-deployments): fix rollback permission visibility and banner string accuracy The Rollback menu entry is hidden by the frontend when the user lacks stack:deploy; it never appears and does not 403. Fixed the step-4 narrative and troubleshooting accordion to match. The rollback-failure banner emitted by ComposeService is '=== Rollback failed. Manual intervention may be required ===' (period, capital M). Fixed both occurrences in the page. Updated the Settings navigation path from the nonexistent 'Roles & Access' to the real 'Access'. * docs(deploy-progress): rewrite with health gate, inline style, and 9 fresh screenshots Add health gate section covering all four states (observing, passed, failed, unknown) with exact UI banner text and the configurable observation window. Expand the inline style section with full band content, 4s auto-dismiss, and pill handoff. Add Scanning as a supported entry point. Replace all 6 existing screenshots and add 3 new ones (modal-health-gate, inline-banner, setting-style). Add two health gate troubleshooting accordions. Add Related CardGroup linking to health-gated-updates, stack-activity, deploy-enforcement, and atomic-deployments. * docs(health-gated-updates): refresh screenshots and correct signal row order and label * docs(deploy-enforcement): rewrite with fleet replication, honor suppressions location, scan-failed dialog state, and fresh screenshots Adds the Fleet policy replication section covering control/replica behavior, Managed by control node banner, and Demote to control. Documents the exact location of the Honor suppressions toggle (bottom of Policies tab). Expands the block dialog section with the scan-failed row state. Updates all three screenshots to the current visual design. Restores the Admiral license note and corrects the policy-card scope description. * docs(app-store): rewrite with mobile layout, fresh screenshots, and registry admin note - Replace all 5 stale screenshots with 1920x1080 production captures - Add app-store-mobile.png showing the status masthead layout - Document mobile single-column layout in a new Mobile subsection - Note that the featured hero has its own Deploy button - Mark the category rail as desktop only with a cross-link to Mobile - Add admin-account requirement to the custom registry section - Add Related CardGroup linking vulnerability scanning, deploy progress, deploy enforcement, and resources

title: Stack Activity
|
|
description: Per-stack event log showing deploys, restarts, config changes, and alerts, each attributed to the user or system process that triggered them.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The **Activity** tab in the right-hand **Anatomy** panel gives you a timestamped record of everything that happened to the selected stack: deploys, restarts, stops, starts, image updates, drift events, and health gate outcomes. Every entry is attributed to the user or background process that triggered it, so you always have full operational context at a glance. The **files** and **edit** buttons on the same header strip belong to the panel as a whole and stay available regardless of which tab is active.
|
|
|
|
<Frame>
|
|
<img src="/images/stack-activity/activity-tab-populated.png" alt="Activity tab with the ACTIVITY tab selected in the header strip showing ANATOMY, ACTIVITY, DOSSIER, DRIFT, ENVIRONMENT, NETWORKING, DOCTOR, STORAGE tabs. Under a TODAY header, three events appear: 'plex deployed by admin' with a rocket icon 52m ago, 'plex updated by admin' with an up-arrow icon 12h ago, and 'plex update started by admin' with an up-arrow icon 12h ago." />
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
## What you'll see
|
|
|
|
Each entry in the activity list contains four pieces of information:
|
|
|
|
| Field | Description |
|
|
|-------|-------------|
|
|
| **Icon** | Category of the event (deploy, restart, stop, start, image update, drift, and others) |
|
|
| **Message** | What happened, for example `plex deployed`. Sensitive values such as tokens, secrets, basic-auth credentials, and bearer tokens are redacted before storage |
|
|
| **Attribution** | `by <username>` for user-initiated actions; `via <Subsystem>` for events triggered by background processes such as Auto-Heal or the Scheduler |
|
|
| **Time** | Relative time since the event: `just now`, `5m ago`, `2h ago`, `3d ago` |
|
|
|
|
## Event categories
|
|
|
|
Ten categories have a dedicated icon. Any other notification scoped to a stack (deploy failures, scan findings, monitor alerts) also flows into the timeline and renders with a generic activity icon.
|
|
|
|
| Category | Example message |
|
|
|----------|-----------------|
|
|
| Deploy succeeded | `plex deployed` |
|
|
| Stack restarted | `dozzle restarted` |
|
|
| Stack stopped | `radarr stopped` |
|
|
| Stack started | `radarr started` |
|
|
| Image update applied | `Auto-update: stack "dozzle" updated with new images` |
|
|
| Drift detected | `Drift detected on sonarr: 2 findings` |
|
|
| Drift resolved | `Drift resolved on tautulli: 1 finding cleared` |
|
|
| Update started | `tautulli update started` |
|
|
| Health gate passed | `plex: health gate passed` |
|
|
| Health gate failed | `plex: health gate failed` |
|
|
|
|
## Day grouping
|
|
|
|
Events are grouped by day under three headers: **Today**, **Yesterday**, and **Earlier**. Within each group, events appear most-recent first. The grouping recomputes every minute so a panel left open past midnight automatically rolls the **Today** bucket into **Yesterday**.
|
|
|
|
## Live updates
|
|
|
|
New events stream in over the same WebSocket that powers the notification bell. The list updates without a page refresh while the tab is open. Duplicate events are deduplicated by ID, and the timeline is sorted by `(timestamp, id)` so events emitted within the same millisecond stay in a stable order.
|
|
|
|
If the WebSocket connection drops, a banner appears at the top of the timeline:
|
|
|
|
> Live updates offline; reconnecting…
|
|
|
|
New events are paused until the connection re-establishes. Existing entries remain visible. Once the banner clears, new events resume automatically without any action on your part.
|
|
|
|
## Pagination
|
|
|
|
The tab loads the 50 most recent events on open. If a stack has more recorded events, a **Load more** button appears at the bottom of the list. Each click fetches the next 50 older events. The button disappears once the timeline reaches the end of the stored history.
|
|
|
|
The underlying API endpoint, `GET /api/stacks/{stackName}/activity`, accepts an optional `before` (timestamp) and `beforeId` (row id) pair for cursor-based pagination. Both parameters must be sent together; sending `beforeId` without `before` is rejected.
|
|
|
|
## Empty state vs unavailable
|
|
|
|
Two states can make the tab look empty, and they mean different things:
|
|
|
|
- **No activity recorded yet** appears when the stack genuinely has no recorded events. This is normal for stacks that have not had any lifecycle actions since Sencho began tracking activity.
|
|
- **Activity unavailable** appears when the request to fetch events fails (for example, the node became unreachable mid-load). A **Retry** button is shown next to this message.
|
|
|
|
<Frame>
|
|
<img src="/images/stack-activity/activity-tab-empty.png" alt="Activity tab showing a small activity icon and the message 'No activity recorded yet' centered in the panel, with no events listed." />
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
## Who triggered an event
|
|
|
|
Sencho attributes every recorded event to the actor that performed it:
|
|
|
|
- **User-initiated actions** (deploy, restart, stop, start, image update triggered from a button or the API): the actor is the authenticated username, shown as `by <username>`.
|
|
- **Background subsystems**: the actor is the subsystem name, shown as `via <Subsystem>`.
|
|
|
|
| Background subsystem | Displayed as |
|
|
|----------------------|--------------|
|
|
| Generic system event | `via System` |
|
|
| Auto-Heal | `via Auto-Heal` |
|
|
| Scheduler | `via Scheduler` |
|
|
| Image Update | `via Image Update` |
|
|
| Docker event monitor | `via Docker` |
|
|
| Blueprint reconciler | `via Blueprint` |
|
|
| Host Monitor | `via Monitor` |
|
|
| Policy enforcement | `via Policy` |
|
|
|
|
An Auto-Heal restart and a manual restart produce separate entries in the timeline because their actors differ, even when the event message is otherwise identical.
|
|
|
|
## Retention
|
|
|
|
Activity is stored in a per-instance SQLite table. Two limits apply, whichever is reached first:
|
|
|
|
- **Time-based:** events older than the configured retention window (30 days by default) are removed during the next periodic cleanup.
|
|
- **Per-stack cap:** the most recent 500 events per (node, stack) are kept. Older events for that stack are pruned on the next cleanup run.
|
|
|
|
Events without an associated stack (system-level notifications) are kept up to 1,000 per node before the oldest are removed.
|
|
|
|
Cleanup runs on the same schedule as container-metrics cleanup, so retention applies even on long-running instances.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing the Activity tab
|
|
|
|
1. Click any stack in the left sidebar to open it.
|
|
2. Select the **Activity** tab in the Anatomy panel header.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
<AccordionGroup>
|
|
<Accordion title="The Activity tab shows 'No activity recorded yet'">
|
|
This is normal for stacks that have not had any lifecycle actions (deploy, restart, stop, update) since Sencho started tracking activity. The tab populates the first time a lifecycle event is recorded. Events that occurred before Sencho was installed are not backfilled.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="The Activity tab shows 'Activity unavailable'">
|
|
The request to fetch activity failed, usually because the node is unreachable or the backend returned a server error. Click **Retry** to re-fire the request without reloading the page. If the node has been removed or its credentials have changed, go to **Settings → Nodes** to verify the connection.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="An event I triggered is not appearing in the timeline">
|
|
Live events arrive over WebSocket. If the "Live updates offline; reconnecting…" banner is visible, new events are paused until the connection recovers. Scroll down to check whether the event is already present below the visible viewport, or wait for the banner to clear and the event will appear automatically. If the event still does not show up, check the notification bell for error-level alerts that may indicate the action itself did not complete.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="The same restart shows as both 'by <username>' and 'via Auto-Heal'">
|
|
These are two distinct events. The first is a manual restart; the second is Auto-Heal restarting the container after a separate unhealthy-duration breach. Each event is its own entry with its own actor. Two rows here are correct behavior, not a duplicate.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="Operational events don't appear in the notification bell dropdown">
|
|
The notification bell surfaces system alerts and error-level events. User-initiated operational events (start, stop, restart, deploy, update) appear exclusively in the per-stack Activity tab, keeping the global tray focused on conditions that need your attention.
|
|
</Accordion>
