Dashboard tour
After you sign in, you land on your dashboard. This is your home base in Acme. This tour points out the main parts of the screen so you know where to find things.
The sidebar
Section titled “The sidebar”The sidebar runs down the left side of the app and holds your main navigation. You can collapse and expand it with the toggle button in the top-left of the header.
At the top is the workspace switcher; below it are your navigation links (including Dashboard); and at the bottom is the support menu, alongside an occasional prompt to upgrade your plan.
On smaller screens the sidebar collapses, and a navigation bar appears along the bottom of the screen.
The workspace switcher
Section titled “The workspace switcher”At the top of the sidebar, the workspace switcher shows your current workspace and its organization. Select it to:
- Switch to another workspace you belong to — your own workspaces and any shared with you are listed separately.
- Add workspace — create a new one (available to organization owners).
- Workspace settings — jump to the current workspace’s settings.
For more, see Switch workspaces and What is a workspace.
The header
Section titled “The header”The header runs across the top of the app. On the right side you’ll find:
- Notification bell — your in-app notifications (see below).
- Account menu — your avatar and name, with quick links to settings and a way to sign out (see below).
The notification bell
Section titled “The notification bell”Select the bell in the header to open your notifications. A badge on the bell shows how many are unread. From the panel you can read items, mark them as read, and clear them. See In-app notifications.
The account menu
Section titled “The account menu”Select your avatar in the top-right to open your account menu. It shows your name and email and links to your settings, including:
- Account — your profile and preferences.
- Security — password, two-factor authentication, and sessions.
- Workspace — the current workspace’s settings.
- Depending on your role, links such as Members, Billing, and Rewards also appear here.
- Log out — sign out of Acme.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”You can reach Settings from the account menu or the workspace switcher. Settings is organized into areas — Account, Security, Workspace, Members, Organization, Billing, Rewards, Integrations, and Developer — with the available areas depending on your role and which features are enabled.
The support menu
Section titled “The support menu”At the bottom of the sidebar, the Support menu links to helpful resources — such as what’s new, the blog, and this help center. Select it to expand the list.
