Fleets and devices are the core operational objects in Golain. Everything else — Omega, telemetry, SSH — attaches to a device inside a fleet within a project.

​
Fleets

​
Create a fleet

  1. Open your project → Fleets → Create fleet.
  2. Provide a name and optional description.
  3. Save.
Fleets are unique by name within a project. You can also create fleets via CLI:

​
List and delete

  • Console: fleet list shows device counts and metadata.
  • CLI: platform-tui fleets list · delete with platform-tui fleets delete <name-or-id> --yes

​
Devices

​
Register a device

  1. Open a fleet → Devices → Add device.
  2. Set name and type (typically mqtt).
  3. Save and open the device detail page.
CLI equivalent:

​
Device detail

The detail view shows: Copy MQTT settings when configuring Omega or third-party MQTT clients. CLI:

​
Tags

Tags are project-scoped strings attached to devices. Console: device detail → Tags → add/remove. CLI:
Project-level tag CRUD: platform-tui tags list|create|delete.

​
Delete a device

Removing a device revokes its MQTT credentials and frees the name within the fleet. Confirm in UI or use:

​
Monitoring connectivity

  • Fleet view — aggregate online/offline counts.
  • Event stream — live connect/disconnect and MQTT access events.
  • platform-tui TUI — Stats & graphs screen shows Unicode gauge bars for fleet connectivity.

​
Edge enrollment

For Golain-managed certificate enrollment instead of manually copying MQTT passwords, open the fleet → Certificates → Issue certificate, download the bootstrap bundle, and follow JITR enrollment. JITR creates the device record for you — do not add the device here first, or enrollment fails with DEVICE_NAME_ALREADY_IN_USE.
