Acting as
At the bottom of the sidebar, your name opens the Act as switcher: you, the organisations you own, the spaces you share. Communications, Knowledge, Library, Personal, Dashboards, Analytics and Data follow it, and your accomplice is told. Acting for a company is acting under its delegation, and every action says so. See Acting for a company.
Every place has a link
Each page and each item in it has its own address (/knowledge/clients/acme.md, /communications/mail:…, /agenda?view=week). Back, forward, reload and shared links land in the same place.
Search
The search button opens Find anything in your world: pages, and conversations by person or title. Searching documents and records from here is Coming soon; use Knowledge's search, or ask your accomplice.
Not yet
Coming soon — a simpler navigation: your accomplice, Inbox (Communications), Plan (Tasks and Agenda), Knowledge (vaults and Library), then one space per identity with its operations, records, numbers, rules and agents.
