Realtime status displays live monitoring results across your workspace with customizable views, multiple display formats, and advanced filtering. You can organize results by product, test, or monitor, switch between card and list layouts, and adjust which metrics you see.

## Views and tabs

The same monitoring data serves different purposes: a status wall for the team, a focused view for one product, a debugging session on a few flaky monitors. Views let you save one configuration per purpose and switch between them instantly instead of rebuilding filters every time.

Each view is a tab at the top of the page and remembers its own settings:

- **Display settings**: layout, grouping, and chart options.
- **Filters**: each view keeps its own filter rules, so one tab can show everything while another focuses on a single product.
- **Time range**: each view keeps its own period, preset or custom.

From the view tabs you can:

- **Create** a new view with the add view button.
- **Rename, duplicate, or delete** a view from its tab menu.
- **Set a default**: one view loads automatically when you open the page. Right-click a tab and select "Set as default" to change it.
- **Reorder**: drag tabs to rearrange them; the order persists in your settings.
- **Share**: copy the current view's URL with the share button to send the exact view to a teammate.

## Display formats

How you read the data depends on what you're doing: cards make status visible at a glance, even from across the room, while the list packs many more monitors onto one screen.

Open the **Display** menu to choose the layout and adjust how results are shown:

- **Cards or List**: switch between the two layouts.
- **Grouping**: organize results by product, test, or monitor. The List layout adds two more options: location and agent.
- **Columns**: lay results out in 1, 2, or 3 columns.
- **Show execution by**: analyze results over a time range or by execution count.
- **Bar chart**: standard stacked or 100% stacked bars.
- **Show period without executions**: include or hide periods with no runs.
- **Show**: display each item's status or its availability percentage. The List layout adds two more metrics: frequency and average execution time.

**Cards** show one summary card per grouping. Each card displays:

- **Status badge**: Up, Partial outage, or Down. Items with no executions in the period show grayed-out bars.
- **Uptime percentage** over the selected period.
- **Stacked bar chart** of availability, with the period start and end as labels.

**List** shows a condensed multi-column list. Each row displays:

- **Status icon and name** of the monitor.
- **Status chip**: Up or Paused.
- **Execution dots** for the most recent runs, green for success and red for failure.

Adjust the column count to fit more rows on screen. It's a compact way to scan many monitors at once. For the full monitor table with scheduling and device details, see the [monitors list](/monitoring/overview).

## Time range and execution mode

Whether you're checking the last few hours after a deploy or reviewing a quarter of history, the analyzed period is yours to set. The time range picker lets you select preset ranges (Last 2h, 4h, 12h, 24h, 48h, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or 12 months) or define a custom range with a precise start and end. This controls the data shown in cards and uptime charts.

Toggle between two execution modes with **Show execution by** in the Display menu:

- **Time-based mode** analyzes results over the selected time range and displays the time range picker. Chart labels show the period start and end.
- **Count-based mode** analyzes a fixed number of recent executions (30, 60, or 90) without needing a time range. The time range picker is replaced by a count selector, and chart labels switch to "Oldest execution" and "Most recent".

In either mode you can also zoom directly on a chart: click and drag across the bars to narrow the view to that period or set of executions. In time-based mode the time range picker switches to "Custom", and you can keep zooming until you isolate the moment you're after.

## Uptime charts

The stacked bar chart in each card visualizes availability over the selected period. Choose between stacked bars (sized by the number of executions in each period) or 100% stacked bars (normalized to the same height to show proportions). Toggle "Show period without executions" to include or hide time ranges with no runs.

Hover over any bar to see the exact time period it covers and a breakdown of successful, failed, and unexecuted runs. Empty periods show "No tests played during this period".

## Filtering

A workspace can hold far more monitors than any one person watches. Filters narrow the view down to exactly the ones you care about, from a simple "only this product" to logic like "everything in this product except these three tests".

Click **Filter** to open the filter builder. The badge on the Filter button shows how many rules are active. Each rule combines:

- **A parameter**: product, monitor, test, device, or status.
- **An operator**: "is exactly", "not exactly", "contains", "does not contain", "starts with", or "ends with".
- **A value**: picked from a searchable dropdown of your products, tests, or devices. Status rules offer Up, Degraded, Down, Paused, Running, or Scheduled.

Build more complex logic by combining rules:

- **Chain rules** with "and"/"or" operators.
- **Add groups** to nest conditions: for example, show everything in one product except three specific tests, or everything from two products.
- **Manage rules and groups** from their menus: duplicate, convert, or delete them.

Save the filters to apply them to the current view, or cancel to leave the view unchanged.

## Refresh

A status page is only useful while it's current, so the view updates itself. A countdown next to the time range shows the time until the next automatic refresh.

- **Pause or resume** automatic refresh with the pause button.
- **Change the refresh interval** from the countdown dropdown.

View settings remain until you change them; leaving without saving will prompt a confirmation if you modified filters or settings.

## Details drawer

Click any card or row to open a details drawer showing the full hierarchy: product → test → monitoring result. Browse execution history, logs, and error details without leaving the view. The drawer reflects your current filters and grouping.

## Go deeper on one product

Clicking a card's **name**, rather than the card itself, opens [Status Details](/monitoring/status-details) for that product: every monitor as a timeline, bucket by bucket. Your current time range and aggregation come along, and the test too when the view is grouped by test.
