A composition contains one or more pages, each with its own URL. You arrange components on each page’s canvas, configure them, and publish when ready. UI Studio tracks every save as a new version so you can view the full history of your work.

The compositions list

The Compositions screen shows all compositions in your environment. Each row displays the composition name and the date and time it was last edited. Click any row to open the composition in the editor.
Use the search bar to filter compositions by name or description. Use the Filters button to filter by a date range for the Last Edited On column. Click the Name or Last Edited On column headers to sort the list.

Manage pages

A composition contains one or more pages. Each page has a name and a URL path. One page is designated as the home page, which loads when a user visits the root of your published composition. Pages can also contain subpages, each with a URL path nested under the parent page’s path.
Name
string
required
Display name for the page.
URL
string
required
URL path for the page, relative to the composition’s root URL.
Home Page
boolean
When true, this page loads when a user visits the root of the published composition. Only one page can be the home page.
Subpages
array
Optional child pages nested under this page’s URL path. Each subpage has the same configuration options as a top-level page.

Build your composition

Drag components from the left panel onto the canvas to build your page layout. Click any component to select it and configure it in the Customize panel. Repeat across pages until your composition is ready, then save your work. The Quickstart walks through this process end to end, and the component documentation covers every configuration option.
