Get to know the Bluebricks home page
The home page is the first screen you see after logging in to Bluebricks. It gives you a snapshot of your organization's infrastructure activity and surfaces any deployments that need your attention before they can proceed.
What the home page shows
The home page is divided into sections that give you quick access to the information you use most.
Dashboard stats
At the top of the page, a row of summary cards shows key numbers across your organization:
Collections: total number of collections in your account
Enabled blueprints: number of blueprints currently installed across collections
Latest runs: recent environment runs and their statuses
Environments: total number of active environments
These cards link directly to the relevant pages, so you can click any stat to drill into the details.
Your collections
A carousel of the collections you are a member of. Each card shows the collection name and its current status, giving you a quick way to check the health of the collections you work with without leaving the home page.
Enabled blueprints
Displays the three most recently enabled blueprints along with their creation date.
Latest runs
Shows the three most recent environment runs, each with a status icon, the user who initiated the run, and when it was triggered. Use this section to quickly check whether recent deployments succeeded, failed, or are still in progress.
Required Actions
The Required Actions table is the operational core of the home page. It lists every environment run that is in a planned status and waiting for review or approval before it can proceed.
Runs appear here when a policy on the target collection requires manual approval, such as:
An Owner Approval policy that pauses runs until a collection owner confirms the change
A Cost Limit policy where the projected cost exceeds the threshold and needs owner sign-off
The table displays the following columns:
Environment
The environment name
Blueprint
The blueprint being deployed
Collection
The target collection for the deployment
Reason
Why the run requires action (for example, "Owner Approval" or "Cost Limit Exceeded")
Initiator
The user or automation that triggered the run
Review
A button that takes you directly to the run's plan page
Only runs that require your action appear here. If you are not an owner or approver for a collection, its pending runs do not show in your Required Actions table.
Reviewing a pending deployment
When a run appears in the Required Actions table:
Click the Review button in that row
Bluebricks opens the run's plan page, showing the unified plan with every change across all packages in the blueprint
Review the planned changes, including resource additions, modifications, and deletions
Approve the run to proceed with applying changes, or Reject it to block execution
After you approve or reject a run, it is removed from the Required Actions table. Approved runs continue to the apply phase automatically.
For more on how policies trigger these approval workflows, see Policies. For details on how runs and plans work, see Environments.
