Configure the platform experience

You can configure settings for the overall platform experience using the Platform experience page in Control Panel. To view the Platform experience tab, you must have User experience administrator Organization permissions.

Configure the home page URL

An Organization's home page URL can be configured per Organization as well as per user group in the Platform experience tab of Control Panel.

Configure the home page URL in the Platform experience settings.

Examples of some common setups:

  • Most new Foundry enrollments will display a default narrative home page that helps users learn about the Foundry platform. The URL for this home page is /narrative.
  • If a Slate dashboard should be used as the Organization's home page, set the value to /slate/<dashboard-rid-or-permalink>.
  • If a Carbon workspace should be used as the Organization's home page, set the value to /carbon/<workspace-rid>

If certain user groups should be sent to a home page URL that differs from the Organization default, you can add group-specific overrides under **Group override` from the left sidebar. The first entry in that list, where a user is a member of any of the listed groups, will be used.

Configure the platform title

Your Organization's platform title can be configured per Organization and replaces references to the platform with the provided title. The default platform title is Palantir. You can configure this in the Platform title tab.

Once you configure your platform title to a new name, this update will also be reflected in the name of your in-platform documentation. For example, if you rename your platform to ABC, the in-platform documentation application will change from the default Custom documentation title to ABC documentation.

Configure the title of your platform in the Platform experience settings.

Configure available languages

You can also make additional languages besides English available to your users from the Platform experience page.

Configure languages in the Platform experience settings.

Users who have access to additional languages will see a locale switcher in their Foundry sidebar that enables language selection. If the Respect user's browser language preferences or Always use browser's language preferences when localizing values options are enabled, users will initially see Foundry in the available language that is set as highest priority in their web browser preferences. Otherwise, English is used by default until the user selects a different language from the language switcher.

Certain widgets in Foundry are set to the user's browser language preference and may require the browser language setting to be updated where necessary.
