Getting Started

Logging in

First things first, you need to log into Monolith. You can use the default user, by typing in

  • Username: admin
  • Password: admin
  • Mastro URL: localhost (or http://localhost:8989/mws/rest/mwsx where actually the services are available). This is only required in a Remote Installation where the server is hosted in a remote machine.

Home Page

Now that you’re logged into the Home Page, you have access to Monolith’s main modules from the Main Menu, as well as your most recent ontologies and knowledge graphs.
Before you do anything else, you should look at the interactive walkthrough accessible by clicking on the flag button.

The Main Menu is divided in two parts, the upper part supplies the everyday main functionalities for OBDM:
