Resource Manager Actions and Resources Reference

Direct reference for every current Resource Manager resource type, context-menu action, toolbar operation, and supported provider capability.

Introduction

Find the selected node type in these tables to see the actions Resource Manager exposes. Actions appear only when they are valid for that provider, resource, platform, and current state.

Global and Properties toolbars

The main toolbar handles tree-wide work; the Properties toolbar handles the selected operational resource.

Surface Actions
Main toolbarAdd, Delete, Search, Refresh, Show Tour
Docker lifecycleDeploy, Shutdown and Clear, Start/Stop all services, Restart, Kill, Clean Up Unused Docker Images
ServerOpen SSH Terminal, Resize, Reboot, Delete
ServiceService Configuration

Resource tree types

These are the current organizational and operational node families.

Family Nodes
RootsLocal, Cloud Providers, SSH Agent
ProviderProvider account, resource group, resource group child
ComputeServers, Server, Projects, Project, project services
DockerServices, Service
DataDatabase Clusters, Databases, Database, Users, User
AccessProvider SSH Keys, SSH Key, Server SSH Keys, authorized Server SSH Key

All creation and import actions

Creation is exposed on the branch that will own the new resource.

Selected branch Actions
Cloud ProvidersAdd New Provider
Provider resource groupCreate <Resource>, Import Existing <Resource> where supported
Named resource group / childCreate New <Child>
ServicesAdd Service: Portainer, Traefik, Netdata, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, CouchDB, Redis
DatabasesAdd New Database
UsersAdd New User
SSH AgentAdd New Key; Start/Stop SSH Agent on Windows
Server SSH KeysAuthorize SSH Key

Provider operation matrix

Current integrations expose these provider resources and API operations.

Provider Resource Operations
LinodeServerimport, list, create, get, reboot, power off/on, delete
LinodeSSH Keyimport, list, create, get, delete
DigitalOceanServerimport, list, create, get, actions, reboot, power off/on, delete
DigitalOceanDatabase Clusterimport, list, create, get, CA, delete
DigitalOceanCluster Databaselist, create, get, delete
DigitalOceanSSH Keyimport, list, create, get, delete
HetznerServerimport, list, create, get, actions, reboot, power off/on, delete
HetznerSSH Keyimport, list, create, get, delete
CustomServerimport and list

Server and local machine context actions

Provider servers emphasize provider-safe inspection and access. Local/legacy server entries expose the local Docker machine lifecycle directly.

Selection Actions
Provider ServerSystem Check, Open SSH Terminal, Remove, Refresh
Local/legacy ServerStart, Stop, Restart, Kill, Delete Server, Open In Editor, Refresh
Projects / ProjectExpand child services and Refresh
Server ServicesAdd Service, Open In Editor, Refresh

Service actions

A new service can be removed before deployment; an existing service exposes operational terminal and destruction actions.

Selection/state Actions
New ServiceRename where supported, Service Configuration, Remove
Existing ServiceRename, Service Configuration, Open Service Terminal, Destroy and Remove, Open In Editor, Refresh
Traefik-integrated ServiceUpdate Traefik Service when applicable
Server/service toolbarDeploy, down/clear, start, stop, restart, kill, clean unused images

Database and user actions

These actions can appear below provider-managed clusters or self-hosted database services, according to their supported resource definition.

Selection Actions
DatabasesAdd New Database, Refresh
DatabaseInspect/configure where supported, Delete Database, Refresh
UsersAdd New User, Refresh
UserInspect/configure where supported, Delete User, Refresh

SSH key and agent actions

Local key availability and remote authorization are separate, complementary steps.

Selection Actions
SSH AgentAdd New Key, Start SSH Agent, Stop SSH Agent
Local SSH KeyAdd To SSH Agent
Provider SSH KeysAdd SSH Key, Import Existing SSH Key, Refresh
Provider SSH KeyRemove/Delete, Refresh
Server SSH KeysAuthorize SSH Key, Refresh
Authorized Server SSH KeyRevoke SSH Key, Refresh

Common tree actions and safety

Rename changes a supported selected label or definition. Delete/Remove requests resource removal. Refresh reloads the selected branch. Open In Editor opens the owning compose or configuration file. Destructive provider and Docker operations require confirmation; verify scope, backups, dependencies, credentials, costs, and active workloads first.

Action Rule
RenameCheck references and generated names before committing.
Delete / RemoveConfirm whether this deletes the provider resource, Docker resource, or only its Wappler definition.
RefreshUse after external/provider changes or stale state.
Open In EditorUse for advanced configuration while preserving valid compose structure.
F5Refreshes the active selection context.
Delete keyRequests deletion for a supported selected node.
