Find services and build your architecture

Use the catalog, resource cards, and connection handles with confidence.

Find a supported service

Search the service catalog using the service name or a relevant description. Open Details to inspect available placement, defaults, and support information before adding it. The catalog is curated; a service being available in AWS does not mean every configuration is available in Cloud Markup.

Add and inspect a resource

  1. Choose the service's Add action. On a small screen, use Add instead of relying on a precise drag gesture.
  2. Select the new resource and review its name and placement.
  3. Expand the resource card when you need more detail, or open Configure for its settings.
  4. Review Issues after applying a configuration change.

Recently used catalog entries help you return to services you have worked with on that browser. They are a convenience, not an inventory of every resource in your project.

Understand connections

Input handles appear on the left and output handles on the right. Hover or focus a handle to inspect its name or group. A supported connection represents a specific relationship; drawing a line is not a promise that any two services can communicate.

Keep layout and design separate

Moving cards helps explain the architecture. It does not replace configuring a service, selecting the correct boundary, or resolving validation findings. Use Fit architecture and zoom when resources seem missing, and create a typed connection for the review flow.
