Use the UI Config tab to add tabs
to the Build Forge UI.
You can add tabs to the Build Forge user interface by using the
UI
Config tab. Each new tab contains a URL. You can use the
tabs to link to external resources such as information about your
applications, operating systems, servers, or users.
Note: Do not create
tabs that link to internal Build Forge URLs.
To add a tab, do the following:
- Select the UI Config tab.
- Click Add Tab.
- At Name, enter the title or name of the
tab.
- At Link, you can enter any of the following:
Option |
Usage |

- At Target, select one option:
- Internal (the default): Select to open the link in the existing
browser window.
- External: Select to open the link in a new browser window.
- At Enabled, select one option:
- Enabled (the default): Select to enable the tab. If enabled,
a connection to the URL is attempted when you select the tab.
- Disabled: Select to disable the tab. If disabled, the tab is hidden.
- At Visible, select one option:
- True (the default): Select to show the tab in the UI.
- False: Select to hide the tab in the UI.
- At Root Only, select one option:
- True (the default): Allows only the root user or a Build Forge
user with root access to select the tab and connect to the URL link.

to the URL link.
Note: After saving a new tab, the tab title will appear in the
list. If the tab itself does not, refresh the page.
