Tour of the Console

What the Console is

The Console is where you create projects and manage their databases, files, functions, keys, backups and billing. You use it at console.pgbhub.com. A project holds one application's resources. An organization owns projects and is the account that gets billed.

Two levels

Account pages cover your whole account: Projects, Usage & Billing, Account Security and IAM. Project pages appear in a left sidebar once you open a project.

The sidebar groups pages: Overview; Core Services & Infrastructure (Databases with Fleet Instances, Connection, Table Editor, RLS Policies, SQL Editor, DB Metrics & Spikes, Query Advisor, Backups, Network Access, DB Settings, plus Authentication, Storage Vault, Functions, Containers, Queues & Workers, Realtime Channels, Cron Jobs, Tasks, Transactional Mail, Custom Domains); Platform Services; Observability; and Configuration with Secrets & Env and Project Settings.

The top bar shows Projects / your project / the active database, a theme toggle and your account menu with Usage & Billing, Account Security and Sign Out.

Try it

1. Sign in at console.pgbhub.com/login.
2. On Projects, open the organization menu and see which organization you are in and your role.
3. Open or create a project (you will do this properly in lesson 3).
4. Expand Databases and hover each sub-page.
5. Press the sidebar collapse button and reopen it. The Console remembers your choice.
6. Switch the theme.

Where things are

Need a connection string? Databases > Connection. Need to run SQL? SQL Editor. Need a backup? Backups. Need a key? Project Settings. Need to add money? Usage & Billing.

Roles shape what you see

If a page is missing, your role may not include it. You will meet roles in lesson 3.

Recap

• Account pages versus project pages.
• Organizations own projects and are billed.
• Most database work lives under Databases in the sidebar.
