Settings reference
Service Settings has four tabs. Service metadata — service ID, who created it, when it was created, and when it was last updated — is shown alongside all of them.
General
Section titled “General”| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Service Name | What the service is called |
| Description | What it is for. Shown in the catalogue |
| Department | The part of the organisation it belongs to |
| Owner | The person accountable. May be left unlinked to a user account |
| Tags | Up to 12 labels, to make the service easy to spot in the catalogue |
Tags use the same emotes as comments, so they read the same everywhere.
Appearance
Section titled “Appearance”| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Icon | A single emoji, chosen from an emote picker |
| Accent colour | Tints the service wherever it appears |
| Banner | An image for the service header |
The banner uses an image generated in this service’s Image Generation module. You can choose an existing one or generate one from a prompt.
Modules
Section titled “Modules”A toggle for every module on the platform.
Turning one off keeps the sidebar focused. Nothing is deleted — turning a module back on restores it with its content.
All modules are enabled by default, including any added to the platform later.
Advanced
Section titled “Advanced”| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| URL slug | A readable link such as /s/app-user-guides. The numeric link keeps working either way |
| Show in the service catalogue | When off, the service stays reachable by direct link but is hidden from lists |
| Duplicate service | Creates a new service with this one’s configuration. Content is not copied |
| Archive service | Retires a service that is no longer in use |
Duplicate and archive sit in a danger zone section, which is a fair description of the second one.
Settings that are not here
Section titled “Settings that are not here”Two service-level controls live in their own dialogs rather than in settings.
Team manages members, linked teams, and the audit log.
Content Access sets the publishing ceiling and the external publishing rules.
Both are reached from the row of tools at the top of the service, not from this dialog.
Related
Section titled “Related”Keep a service tidy covers when to use the advanced options. Feature list puts these settings in the context of everything else a service does.
