Settings

After joining the workspace and being assigned permissions, you can see a series of settings about the current workspace.

Basic Information

Workspace Language

In the workspace, you can modify the workspace language. Currently, there are two options: Chinese and English.

This configuration affects templates such as events, alerting, and SMS within the workspace. After switching, the above templates will default to using the language template that was switched to.

Note:

  • The workspace language here is different from the display language of your space page: Guance will use the default display language of the system console based on your local browser history login or the local browser language as the default display language when you log in to the workspace. For example, if your browser is set to use Chinese, the workspace console will default to displaying Chinese.
  • Only the workspace Owner and Administrators have permission to modify the workspace language.

Remarks

Guance supports setting remarks for the current workspace to help users obtain clearer information about the workspace name, etc.

In Management > Settings > Basic Information, set the remarks to be viewed.

After the settings are completed, you can view the remarks in the upper-left corner of the workspace.

Click on the workspace name to view all workspaces and their remarks. Click the Edit button next to the remarks to add or modify the content.

Change Token

Guance supports the Owner and Administrators of the current space to copy/change the Token in the workspace and customize the expiration time of the current Token. Go to Management > Basic Settings > Change Token, select the expiration time, and confirm Change. Guance will automatically generate a new Token, and the old Token will expire within the specified time.

The effect of change Token
  • Changing the Token will trigger Operation Audit and Notification;

  • After changing the Token, the old Token will expire within the specified time. The expiration time includes: immediate, 10 minutes, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours. Immediate expiration is generally used for Token leaks. After selecting immediate expiration, the old Token will immediately stop data reporting. If anomaly detection is set up, events and alarm notifications cannot be triggered until the old Token in the datakit.conf of DataKit collector is modified to the newly generated Token.

For the storage directory of the datakit.conf file, see Getting Started with DataKit.

Migration

Guance supports Owners and Administrators to import and export JSON configuration files of dashboards, custom explorers, and monitors in the workspace with one click. Go to Management > Settings, and choose Export or Import in Migration.

During the import process, if there are duplicate names for dashboards, explorers, or monitors in the current workspace, a prompt will appear indicating that the imported file has duplicate names. You can choose whether to Skip, Still Create, or Cancel based on your actual needs.

  • Skip: Only create files that are not duplicate names;
  • Still Create: Create corresponding dashboards, explorers, and monitors based on the imported file names;
  • Cancel: Cancel the file import operation, no files will be imported.

Note: JSON configuration files of dashboards, explorers, and monitors in other workspaces can be imported in compressed format.

Advanced Settings

Security

Invitation Approval

After enabling the switch, after the notification for inviting members is sent, the invited members need to be approved by the current workspace Owner and Administrators before they can join the workspace. If not enabled, the invited members can directly enter the workspace.

MFA Security Authentication

After enabling, all members of the workspace must complete MFA binding and authentication to enter the workspace.

IP Whitelist

Guance supports configuring an IP whitelist for the workspace to restrict visiting users. After enabling the IP whitelist, only IP sources in the whitelist can log in normally, and other source requests will be denied access.

Only Administrators and Owners can set the IP whitelist, and the Owner is not subject to IP whitelist access restrictions.

The IP whitelist is written as follows:

  • Multiple IPs need to be separated by line breaks, and only one IP or subnet is allowed per line, with a maximum of 1000 IPs;
  • Specify an IP address: 192.168.0.1, which means allowing the IP address 192.168.0.1 to access;
  • Specify an IP range: 192.168.0.0/24, which means allowing the IP addresses from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.255 to access;
  • All IP addresses: 0.0.0.0/0.
