# Find your way around Qualflare

Where things are in the Qualflare app: the project and workspace sidebars, the header switchers, Search, Quo, notifications and the side panel.

This page shows where everything is in the Qualflare app at app.qualflare.com: the project sidebar's four groups, the workspace sidebar, the header with its switchers, and the side panel that opens a suite, case, launch or defect.

## Project sidebar

Inside a project, at `app.qualflare.com/project/<project-identifier>`, the sidebar lists the project's pages in four groups:

| Group             | Pages                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Overview**      | [Overview](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/analytics) (the dashboard, or the setup guide until the first launch), [Browse](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/test-management/test-suites), [Explore](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/test-management/explore)                                 |
| **Planning**      | [Milestones](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/test-management/milestones), [Shared Steps](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/test-management/shared-steps), [Test Plans](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/test-management/test-plans), [Launches](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/runs/launches) |
| **Analysis**      | [Defects](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/defects), [AI Insights](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/ai/insights), [Failure Clusters](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/ai/failure-clusters)                                                                                                     |
| **Configuration** | [Teams](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/administration/teams), [Integrations](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/integrations), [Settings](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/administration/project-settings)                                                                                    |

**Launches** is under **Planning**. There is no Test Cases or Dashboard item: test cases are in **Browse**, and the dashboard is **Overview**.

*Figure: Inside a project, the sidebar groups its pages under Overview, Planning, Analysis and Configuration.*

## Workspace sidebar

On a workspace's pages, at `app.qualflare.com/workspace/<workspace-identifier>`, the sidebar has three parts:

* **Projects**, at the top with no group label, lists the workspace's projects.
* **Management** holds **Plan & Billing**, **Tags**, **Integrations** and **Users**.
* **Administration** holds **Audit Logs**, **Single Sign-On**, **Verified Domains**, **SCIM Provisioning**, **Authentication** and **Settings**.

The sidebar shows only the pages your workspace role can open: see [Workspace pages by role](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/administration/roles-permissions#workspace-pages-by-role).

## Header

| Item                      | What it does                                                                                                                                                            |
| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Workspace switcher        | Lists your workspaces, with the active one's plan in capitals, such as `STARTER`, and links to **Workspace Settings** (if your role can open it) and **All Workspaces** |
| Project switcher          | Lists the workspace's projects, and links to **Project Settings** and **All Projects**                                                                                  |
| **Feedback** and **Docs** | Open the contact page on qualflare.com, and this documentation                                                                                                          |
| **Search...**             | Opens the [command palette](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/get-started/search-and-filters#command-palette), as Shift+/ does                                            |
| Quo button                | Opens and closes [Quo](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/ai/quo). It shows only when [AI features](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/ai) are on for the project             |
| Notifications bell        | Shows your unread count and opens your notifications, with **Mark all read**                                                                                            |
| Account menu              | **Account** (see [Account security](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/administration/account-security)), **Invitations** and **Log out**                                  |

Every shortcut is in [Keyboard shortcuts](https://docs.qualflare.com/docs/get-started/search-and-filters#keyboard-shortcuts).

## Side panel

* Suites, cases, case runs, launches, defects, milestones and shared steps open in a side panel over the page you are on.
* The address bar carries the open record, so a copied URL opens the same panel for a teammate with access.
* **Close panel**, Esc while focus is in the panel, or the browser's Back closes it. Back steps back one panel at a time. A click outside leaves it open, so a half-done edit isn't lost.
* Drag its left edge (**Resize panel**) to make it wider or narrower.

## On a narrow screen

* Below 1,024 px wide, the sidebar opens from the menu button, **Open navigation menu**.
* Search and the Quo button aren't shown there, so use a wider window for Quo. Below 640 px, **Feedback** and **Docs** are hidden too.
* Both sidebars have **Toggle theme**, which switches light and dark. On a wide screen, **Collapse sidebar** narrows the sidebar to icons, and **Expand sidebar** brings it back.
