Core Library

APM Connect your usage data to Chart component and set up a Query to catch spikes and write incident data to another data source like Postgres, all within one client.

Search Run your queries through Retool and visualize your results (text, images, logs, whatever) in a Text component. You can also connect queries to TextInput fields to make search accessible to non-technical end users.

Logs Parse and format those logs in a language you’re familiar with. You can populate a Table component with records, and display relevant details in a Container component when you select a row.

Components

Build from a handful of drag-and-drop components

Table display the output of a query and control your table appearance and the visible columns.

Text the simplest components out there — use text components statically as labels, or dynamically to display values.

Button trigger actions that do things like run queries, export data, or open other apps.

Text Input take a text input to modify the parameters of a query — say the `ILIKE` in a SQL statement, or a URL parameter in a REST query based on the value of the component.

Dropdown allow users to select one value from a list of options.

Container organize your admin panel by using containers as top-level components and to nest other components.
