App: Overview

  • The Overview page summarizes an app's activity, agents, and channels.
    It is available at https://dashboard.<your-domain>/apps/<slug>, where <slug> is the app identifier used in the URL.

  • All apps in your Quill instance are listed in the My apps view.
    From My apps, click an app's name to open its Overview page.
    You can also use the app selector in the header to switch between apps.

The app overview

App overview

  1. App selector
    The header shows the current app. Click the app's name to switch to another app.
    When switching from Overview, the selected app opens on its Overview page.

  2. Overview
    To open the current app's Overview page, click Overview under Database in the sidebar.
    When an app is open, the sidebar shows its Database, Data prep, and Settings sections.

  3. Activity
    Four tiles show the app's conversations, prompts, tokens, and write usage for the selected period.
    Each chart shows how the activity is distributed over that period.
    Learn more in Activity below.

  4. Period selector
    Select the period reported by the Activity tiles.
    The selection does not affect the tables below them.
    Learn more in Select the period below.

  5. Agents
    The Agents table shows each agent's status, model, last run, and lifetime activity.
    Learn more in Agents below.

  6. Channels
    The Channels table shows each channel's assigned agent, status, type, active links, and creation time.
    Learn more in Channels below.

Activity

The Activity section reports conversations, prompts, tokens, and write usage for this app during the selected period.

App overview - Activity

Select the period

  1. Period selector
    The selected period applies only to the Activity tiles.
    It does not affect the Agents or Channels tables.

    • Select Year, Month, or Day to set the chart's granularity:
      • Year - monthly buckets.
      • Month - daily buckets.
      • Day - hourly buckets.
    • Use the arrows to move between periods, or click the period label to select a specific year, month, or day.
    • The initial selection is the current month.
    • The app's creation date determines the earliest selectable day, month, and year.
      If the app has no usable creation date, Quill uses the deployment's setup date instead.
    • Future periods are unavailable, and future buckets are not shown in the chart.
    • This selection is independent of the periods selected on My apps, Usage, and the app's Analytics page.

Activity tiles

Each tile shows the app's total for the selected period and a chart that breaks the total down by time bucket.
Hover over a chart to see the value and the bucket it covers.
A chart is not shown when the selected period contains only one bucket.

  1. Conversations
    The number of conversations users started with any of this app's agents.
    A conversation is a single chat thread between a user and an agent, carried over a channel.

  2. Prompts
    The number of messages users sent within those conversations.
    Agents' replies and the internal parameter messages Quill adds when starting a conversation are not counted.

  3. Tokens
    The total number of input and output tokens reported by the LLM provider for those conversations.

  4. WRU
    A Write Request Unit is a measure of write activity in the app's RavenDB database.
    This includes writes made when Quill mirrors source data and records conversations,
    as well as direct writes made through the RavenDB Client API.
    Write usage is reported every 15 minutes, so recent writes may not be included yet.
    For license-wide write usage, see the Usage view.

How activity is reported

  • A conversation and all its prompts and tokens are assigned to the bucket in which the conversation started.
    For example, a conversation started at 23:50 and continued past midnight is reported entirely on the first day.

  • If the app has no activity during the selected period, every tile shows 0. This is not an error.

Agents

App overview - Agents

The table lists every agent configured in the app.
If the app has no agents, the table displays No agents yet.

  1. Agent name
    The name assigned to the agent when it was created.
    The agent's name cannot be changed.

  2. Status
    Active when the underlying RavenDB agent is enabled.
    The table can also display Disabled if the agent was disabled outside Quill, for example in RavenDB Studio.
    Quill does not provide a control for disabling agents.

  3. Model
    The LLM model defined by the agent's AI connection string.
    A dash is shown if the model cannot be resolved.

  4. Last run
    The start of the one-hour UTC bucket in which the agent's most recent conversation began, displayed in your local time zone, or a dash if the agent has not handled a conversation.
    Quill records the bucket at the start of the hour, so the displayed minutes reflect only your local time-zone offset,
    not the conversation's exact start minute.

  5. Lifetime activity

    • Conversations
      The number of conversations users started with this agent.
    • Prompts
      The number of user messages in those conversations, counted in the same way as the Activity tile.
    • Tokens
      The total number of tokens reported by the LLM provider for those conversations.
  6. Add agent
    Click Add agent to open the agent creation wizard.
    Learn more in Adding an AI agent.

  7. Agent actions

    • Edit
      Click the pencil to edit the agent's connection string, system prompt, parameters, tools, and actions.
    • Delete
      Click the trash can and then click Delete in the confirmation dialog. This action cannot be undone.
      An agent cannot be deleted while channels are assigned to it. Delete those channels or assign them to another agent, and then try again.

Agent activity history

  • Last run, Conversations, Prompts, and Tokens cover the agent's entire recorded history.
    They are not affected by the period selected in the Activity section.
    For period-specific totals and breakdowns, use the app's Analytics page.

  • Activity is associated with the agent's identifier, which is derived from its name.
    If an agent is deleted and then recreated with the same name, its earlier activity is included in the new row.

Channels

App overview - Channels

The table lists every channel configured in the app, with the newest channel first.
If the app has no channels, the table displays No channels yet.

  1. Channel name
    The name assigned to the channel when it was created.
    Click the name to open the channel's page.
    A second line identifies the connected account:

    • Telegram shows the bot's username with a leading @.
    • Discord shows the bot's username.
    • Slack shows the workspace name.
  2. Agent name
    The agent assigned to the channel.
    Each channel routes its conversations to one agent.

  3. Status
    Active, or Disabled when the channel has been switched off.
    A disabled channel does not carry conversations.
    For a Web widget channel, new embed links cannot be generated while the channel is disabled.

  4. Type
    The channel type: Web widget, Telegram, Slack, Discord, or WhatsApp.

  5. Active links
    For a Web widget channel, the number of embed links that have not expired or been revoked.
    A link that has reached its invocation limit remains included until it expires or is revoked.
    Other channel types display a dash.

  6. Created
    The date and time when the channel was created.

  7. Add channel
    Click Add channel and select the type of channel to create. A channel must be assigned to an existing agent.
    WhatsApp Personal and WhatsApp Business are marked Coming soon and cannot be selected yet.

  8. Channel actions

    • Open details
      Click the eye to open the channel's page.
      You can also open it by clicking the channel name.
    • Generate an embed link
      Click the link icon to generate an embed link for a Web widget channel. This action is available only for Web widget channels and is disabled when the channel is disabled.
      Learn more in Generating an embed link.
    • Edit
      Click the pencil to open the channel's page in edit mode.
    • Delete
      Click the trash can and then click Delete in the confirmation dialog.
      This action cannot be undone.
      Any widgets embedded with this channel stop working.

Sync errors

App overview - Channels

  • A Sync errors detected banner appears at the top of the page when Quill reports errors while mirroring changes from the source database.

  • The banner shows the number of error entries available to view, capped at 25.
    This number is not necessarily the total number of sync failures.

  • Click View errors to open the Sync errors side panel, which lists up to the 25 most recent errors,
    with the newest first.

  • Each error card shows the data-sync task name, timestamp, and processing step.
    Click Show details to view the complete error message.
    If the message contains multiple lines, its first line is also shown on the card.

  • The banner is not shown when Quill returns no sync errors.

Empty and error states

A failure can affect the whole page or an individual section.

SituationWhat the page shows
The app does not existApp not found and Go to dashboard
The app cannot be loadedCould not load app, with Retry and Go to dashboard
Activity cannot be loadedA dash instead of the total on each Activity tile
Agents cannot be loadedCould not load agents and Could not load channels, each with Retry
Channels cannot be loadedCould not load channels, with Retry; the Agents table remains available
Active-link counts cannot be loadedNo error message; the channels remain listed, with 0 shown for each Web widget channel

The Channels table also loads the agents to populate its Agent name column.
Therefore, an agent-loading failure affects both tables, while a channel-only failure does not affect the Agents table.

A value of 0 on an Activity tile means the data loaded successfully but no activity was recorded during the selected period. A dash means that the total could not be loaded.

When no agents or channels have been added, the tables retain their headers and display No agents yet.
or No channels yet.
