Managing Add-ons
Add-ons are managed through the Add-ons tab in your Porter dashboard. From there you can:
- Create new add-ons
- View and modify existing add-on configurations
- Connect add-ons to your applications via environment groups
- Delete add-ons when no longer needed
Deleting an add-on may cause connected applications to lose access to the resource. Ensure you’ve migrated any data before deleting datastores or storage add-ons.
