# Find your way around

> The sidebar, your inbox, quick add and the other shortcuts around Arkata.

Everything in Arkata is reached from the sidebar on the left. This page covers what is there and the shortcuts that save you clicks.

## The sidebar

The top of the sidebar has two tabs. **Home** is the main menu. **Inbox** holds your notifications, with a badge counting the unread ones.

The **Home** menu holds:

| Entry             | What is there                                            |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Dashboards**    | General, Timeline and Billing                            |
| **Projects**      | Every project in your firm                               |
| **Tasks**         | Tasks across all projects                                |
| **Calendar**      | Meetings, hearings, site visits and leave                |
| **Finance**       | Quotes, Expenses and Invoices. Partners and Admins only. |
| **Clients**       | Your client records                                      |
| **Collaborators** | The outside firms you work with                          |

Click the panel icon at the top to collapse the sidebar to icons and give yourself more room. Click it again to expand.

Architects do not see the Finance menu or the Billing dashboard. See [Roles](/getting-started/roles).

<Note>
  A lock icon on Finance means your firm's Finance trial has ended. See [Finance trial](/billing/finance-trial).
</Note>

## Create something from anywhere

The round **+** button in the bottom corner of every page creates a **Project**, a **Task** or a **Client** without leaving the page you are on.

## Ask Copilot

The Copilot button sits beside quick add and opens the assistant in a side panel. On a phone it opens as a full page. See [Arkata Copilot](/copilot/overview).

## Share a page with a colleague

Projects and tasks have a **Share** button next to Edit. It copies the page's link to your clipboard. Whoever you send it to still needs their own Arkata login to open it.

## Your profile menu

Click your name at the bottom of the sidebar for **Settings**, **Documentation**, which opens these help pages, and **Log Out**.
