# Viewing and Managing Systems in the Catalog

With the system view, you can create the overall architecture of your system. It displays the interaction of various components (like integration flows, API, and messaging layers) with non-TIBCO components like databases, UIs, and other resources.

If you select the System from the Kind dropdown, a catalog list of the systems opens in the catalog table with different columns.

When you provision TIBCO Developer Hub without adding catalog `location` config, you get the following system - `document-generation-system`.

There are Common Searching and Managing Features in the Catalog that can help you find the system you want to manage.

You can search the key information of a system by using the following columns.

## System Name

This column shows the list of systems present in the catalog. Click any system name from the column to view the following details.

- Service Overview - The overview tab is segmented into the following details.

  - About - You can view the source repository of the system in the View Source and technical documentation in the View TechDocs. To edit the About section, click the Edit Metadata icon. This takes you to the source repository location of the system, where you can edit the about information. To view the changed metadata of a system, click the Schedule Entity Refresh icon. To view owner or domain information in detail, click the name of the owner or domain.

  - Relations - This is a non-exhaustive and read-only list of relations between the existing entity and other entities. Each relation has a source, a target, and a type that shows what relation the source has with the target. Relations are commonly bidirectional, so that there is a pair of relation types each describing one direction of the relation.

    In Relations, you can see the simple view of system relations with other entities. To view the elaborated relations of the system, click View Graph. Use the search filters like max depth, kinds, relations, directions, and curve to find the entity relations. Use the Simplified and Merge Relation toggle switches to see the simple or complex relations view. You can scroll to zoom in and zoom out and move around the relations diagram. Click to change the active node. To navigate the entity, press the Shift+Click button.

  - Has Components - You can see the components list of the system. Click Component name or Owner name to see their information in details.

  - API - You can view a list of APIs associated with the system. Click API name or Owner name to their information in details.

  - Has Resources - You can view the resource list of the system. Click Resource name or Owner name to their information in details.

- Diagram - You can view the relation diagram of a system with other entities. To view the elaborated relations, click View Graph. You can refer Relations to learn more about the entity relations.

## Owner

In the catalog table, if you click the owner name of the system, you can see the owner overview details like organization information, members, and ownership of other entities. Learn more about the owner from Viewing and Managing Groups in the Catalog.
