Groups are named collections of hosts. Use them to separate environments (e.g. production, staging), projects, or regions. A host can belong to more than one group. Groups appear as folders in the sidebar under Hosts, sorted by name. A host in several groups is listed under each one. Hosts in no group are listed after the folders.

Open the groups list

Click a folder in the sidebar to open that group, then click Groups in the page header to see every group. You can also open the command palette (⌘K or Ctrl+K) and choose Groups. Each row shows the group’s color, the first hosts in it, the host count, and how many hosts are online. A host counts as online when it has a connected session or a reporting monitoring agent. Use Filter groups to search by name.

Create a group

1

Open New group

Click the New group button next to Hosts in the sidebar, or click New group on the groups list.
2

Name it

Enter a Name and pick a Color: Blue, Green, Yellow, Purple, Orange, or Pink.
3

Save

Click Create group. A new group starts empty.

Add hosts to a group

Open the group and click Add hosts. Select hosts from the list (search by label, host, or username) and click Add 2 hosts (the count matches your selection). Hosts already in the group are not listed. If every host is already in the group, the dialog offers New host. You can also assign groups from a host’s Add host or Edit host sheet. Use the Groups field to add the host to one or more groups.

Group detail

The group page lists its hosts with the same status, address, CPU, memory, and last-connected columns as the hosts list. Click a host to open its detail page, or hover a row and click Connect. The side panel shows:
  • Color: click a swatch to change the group’s color.
  • Summary: Hosts, Online, With agent, and Last seen.
  • Rename and Delete group, keep hosts.

Connect to every host in a group

Click Open all in the group header to open one terminal session per host. If the group has more than 3 hosts, Termique asks you to confirm first. For a group with one host the button reads Connect.

Remove a host from a group

On the group page, right-click the host and select Remove from group, then confirm. The host is not deleted. The same context menu has Connect, Details, and Edit host. Edit host is not shown for hosts shared with you.

Rename or delete a group

On the group page, click Rename to change its name, color, and members in the Edit group dialog. On the groups list, hover a row and click the pencil icon to do the same. To delete a group, click Delete group, keep hosts on the group page, or the trash icon on the groups list. The hosts in it are not deleted.

Sync

Groups and their host lists sync through the API to your other devices. When you add or remove a host on one device, the change appears on your other devices on the next sync.
