Welcome to the DIAL Admin Panel Home page — your central command center for managing and configuring your DIAL environment.

The Home page provides administrators with a comprehensive overview of the system and quick access to essential management functions.

  • Shortcuts to the main sections and dashboards
  • Importing/exporting configurations for backup, migration, or sharing
  • Definition of global interceptors in system properties
  • Shortcut to the relevant DIAL Chat environment
  • Shortcut to system documentation portal
  • User settings

Sections​

  • Entities: In this section, you can configure all AI models, applications, toolsets, interceptors and routes within the DIAL environment.
  • Builders: In this section, you can add and configure application runners, model adapters and interceptor templates.
  • Assets: In this section, you can view, add, and manage public system resources such as applications, toolsets prompts and files.
  • Deployments: This section requires an additional component to be installed. In this section you can deploy and configure images and containers for Model Servings, MCPs, Interceptors and AI Model Adapters.
  • Access Management: In this section, you can create and manage user groups, roles, API keys, and usage limits to implement access and cost control policy.
  • Approvals: In this section, you can view and manage publication requests submitted by DIAL users for applications, files, toolsets and prompts.
  • Audit: In Dashboard, you can monitor real-time system usage, including token consumption, system load, and other telemetry data for performance tracking. Activities give access to changelog and perform rollback if needed. In Usage Log you can monitor usage for traces, conversations and MCPs.

Import Config​

Use Import Config to upload a configuration file. Can be used for migrating between environments or restoring backups.

  1. Click Import Config to invoke the import screen.

  2. In the Files section, you can make the following selections:

    • Components: Choose to import configuration of Deployments (Model Servings, Images, MCP, Interceptor and Adapter Containers) or Entities (Models, Applications, Toolsets, Interceptors, Routes), Builders (Application Runners, Adapters, Interceptor Templates) and Access Management configurations (API keys and Roles).
    • Conflict resolution: To resolve possible conflicts between imported and existing files you can choose a conflict resolution strategy:
      • Override: During the import process, any resource in the archive that matches an existing one by the identifier will override it.
      • Skip: Any resource in the archive that matches the current one by the identifier will be ignored, and the current resource will remain unchanged.
    • File type: Choose to import DIAL Core .json file or a.zip archive.

  3. Add a file or an archive in the File section and proceed with the Configuration step where you can preview all resources being imported.

  4. For each resource, click Compare changes in the actions menu to compare current and a version to be imported:

  5. Click Import to start the import process.

Export Config​

Use Export Config to download full or selected configuration of the current instance. Great for backups, audit snapshots, or sharing with teammates.

Deployments​

You can export configuration of the selected Deployments (Model Servings, Images, MCP, Interceptor and Adapter Containers)

  1. Click Export config and select Deployments in Components.
  2. Add deployments you want to export. Here, you can choose to ignore or include dependencies required by the selected resources to operate.
  3. Click Export to invoke the Export File Preview window.
    • Enable Include secrets to include secret values (e.g. keys, passwords etc.) in the deployment configuration.
    • Enable Include global firewall to include global domain whitelist in the configuration file.
  4. Click Export to download a .zip archive.

Entities, Builders, Access Management​

You can export configuration of the selected Entities (Models, Applications, Toolsets, Interceptors, Routes), Builders (Application Runners, Adapters, Interceptor Templates) and Access Management configurations (API keys and Roles)

  1. Click Export config and select Entities, Builders, Access Management in Components.
  2. Choose export format:
    • DIAL Admin Archive — export a .zip archive.
    • DIAL Core JSON File — export a single .json file compatible with DIAL Core.
  3. Chose export type:
    • Full: When this option is selected, use Resources toggles to enable/disable specific categories of resources you want to export.
    • Custom: When this option is selected, use tabs with resources where you can manually select what entities in each category you want to include.
      • Include dependencies: When exporting a Custom config type, dependencies (e.g. adapters, interceptors, applications, application runners etc. required by the selected resources to operate) can be included or ignored.
  4. Use Topics to filter out resources associated with the selected topic(s).
  5. Click Export to open the Export File Preview window, where you can:
    • Preview your selections and any included dependencies.
    • Enable Include secrets to include secret values (e.g. keys, passwords etc.) in the exported configuration file.
  6. Review and click Export to download a .zip archive.

System Properties​

Click the Globe icon in the footer or in Quick Actions on the home page to open the System Properties screen. Here, you can add and configure global interceptors.

Global interceptors apply to any deployment (applications and models) in DIAL. If local interceptors are also configured for specific models or applications, global interceptors process each request first, before the local interceptors, and review the response after the local interceptors have processed it.

Refer to Interceptors to learn more.

To add a global interceptor:​
  1. Click + Add on the System Properties screen.
  2. Select from the list of available interceptors.
  3. Click Apply to add the interceptor. Repeat steps 1-3 to add more interceptors. If there are more than one interceptors, you can drag-and-drop them to change the execution order. Interceptors run in ascending order (1 → 2 → 3...). A request will flow through each interceptor's in this order. Response interceptors are invoked in the reversed order.
  4. Click Save on the System Properties screen to apply changes or Discard to cancel all unsaved actions.

When a global interceptor is added, its status in Entities/Interceptors changes to Global and you can also see it listed under the Global Interceptors tab in configuration of any application or model.

DIAL Core Version​

Administrators can manually set the version of DIAL Core to resolve any possible compatibility issues that may arise during upgrades.

  1. Click the Edit icon in the footer next to the Core version.
  2. In the pop-up, enter the desired DIAL Core version manually or choose to auto detect it.
  3. Click Apply. The updated version is displayed in the footer.
