# `ui` Block
<Placement groups={['ui']} />
The `ui` block configures the Nomad agent's [web UI].
```hcl
ui {
enabled = true
consul {
ui_url = "https://consul.example.com:8501/ui"
}
vault {
ui_url = "https://vault.example.com:8200/ui"
}
label {
text = "Staging Cluster"
background_color = "yellow"
text_color = "#000000"
}
}
```
A default `ui` block is automatically merged with all Nomad agent
configurations. Note that the UI can be served from any Nomad agent,
and the configuration is individual to each agent.
## `ui` Parameters
- `enabled` `(bool: true)` - Specifies whether the web UI is
enabled. If disabled, the `/ui/` path will return an empty web page.
- `consul` <code>([Consul]: nil)</code> - Configures integrations
between the Nomad web UI and the Consul web UI.
- `vault` <code>([Vault]: nil)</code> - Configures integrations
between the Nomad web UI and the Vault web UI.
- `label` <code>([Label]: nil)</code> - Configures a user-defined
label to display in the Nomad Web UI header.
## `consul` Parameters
- `ui_url` `(string: "")` - Specifies the full base URL to a Consul
web UI (for example: `https://consul.example.com:8501/ui`. This URL
is used to build links from the Nomad web UI to a Consul web
UI. Note that this URL will not typically be the same one used for
the agent's [`consul.address`]; the `consul.address` is the URL used
by the Nomad to communicate with Consul, whereas the
`ui.consul.ui_url` is the URL you'll visit in your browser. If
this field is omitted, this integration will be disabled.
## `vault` Parameters
- `ui_url` `(string: "")` - Specifies the full base URL to a Vault
web UI (for example: `https://vault.example.com:8200/ui`. This URL
is used to build links from the Nomad web UI to a Vault web
UI. Note that this URL will not typically be the same one used for
the agent's [`vault.address`]; the `vault.address` is the URL used
by the Nomad to communicate with Vault, whereas the
`ui.vault.ui_url` is the URL you'll visit in your browser. If
this field is omitted, this integration will be disabled.
## `label` Parameters
- `text` `(string: "")` - Specifies the text of the label that will be
displayed in the header of the Web UI.
- `background_color` `(string: "")` - The background color of the label to
be displayed. The Web UI will default to a black background. HEX values
may be used.
- `text_color` `(string: "")` - The text color of the label to be displayed.
The Web UI will default to white text. HEX values may be used.
