Toolbar

Use the toolbar to configure and customize the component. The following options are available:

  • Color: Select a fill color for the top of the component and an accent color for the bottom. You can use the same colors on the 2D and 3D views or different colors for each.
  • Name: Enter a name for the service.

You can also add the ECS Service component to VPCs, security groups, and subnets.

API

Use the Cloudcraft API to programmatically access and render your architecture diagrams as JSON objects. T
