# Dashboard (Control UI)
|
|
|
|
The Gateway dashboard is the browser Control UI served at `/` by default
|
|
(override with `gateway.controlUi.basePath`).
|
|
|
|
Quick open (local Gateway):
|
|
- http://127.0.0.1:18789/ (or http://localhost:18789/)
|
|
|
|
Key references:
|
|
- [Control UI](/web/control-ui) for usage and UI capabilities.
|
|
- [Tailscale](/gateway/tailscale) for Serve/Funnel automation.
|
|
- [Web surfaces](/web) for bind modes and security notes.
|
|
|
|
Authentication is enforced at the WebSocket handshake via `connect.params.auth`
|
|
(token or password). See `gateway.auth` in [Gateway configuration](/gateway/configuration).
|
|
|
|
## Fast path (recommended)
|
|
|
|
- After onboarding, the CLI now auto-opens the dashboard with your token and prints the same tokenized link.
|
|
- Re-open anytime: `clawdbot dashboard` (copies link, opens browser if possible, shows SSH hint if headless).
|
|
- The token stays local (query param only); the UI strips it after first load and saves it in localStorage.
|
|
|
|
## Token basics (local vs remote)
|
|
|
|
- **Localhost**: open `http://127.0.0.1:18789/`. If you see “unauthorized,” run `clawdbot dashboard` and use the tokenized link (`?token=...`).
|
|
- **Token source**: `gateway.auth.token` (or `CLAWDBOT_GATEWAY_TOKEN`); the UI stores it after first load.
|
|
- **Not localhost**: use Tailscale Serve (tokenless if `gateway.auth.allowTailscale: true`), tailnet bind with a token, or an SSH tunnel. See [Web surfaces](/web).
|
|
|
|
## If you see “unauthorized” / 1008
|
|
|
|
- Run `clawdbot dashboard` to get a fresh tokenized link.
|
|
- Ensure the gateway is reachable (local: `clawdbot status`; remote: SSH tunnel `ssh -N -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789 user@host` then open `http://127.0.0.1:18789/?token=...`).
|
|
- In the dashboard settings, paste the same token you configured in `gateway.auth.token` (or `CLAWDBOT_GATEWAY_TOKEN`).
