If you are new to Atloria, the easiest way to feel comfortable is to learn the main places you will move between every day. Atloria is organized around a few core areas: account access, the admin workspace, project areas, and documentation pages.
This guide explains how to move around Atloria, how to open records, and how to use breadcrumbs and search to stay oriented.
Start from the Main Entry Points
Most people begin in one of these places:
- the sign-in page
- the registration page
- the admin workspace
- the project list
- a specific project dashboard
- a documentation page or public documentation link

Understand the Main Navigation Areas
Admin workspace
The admin workspace is where administrators and other authorized users manage higher-level settings and oversight areas.
From the admin workspace, you may move to areas such as:
- analytics
- users and permissions
- security and audit
- AI assistant pages
To learn how these areas are grouped and used, see Using the Admin Workspace, Managing User Access and Administrative Permissions, Reviewing Security and Audit Controls, and Monitoring Administrative Analytics and Activity.
Project areas
Project areas are where most day-to-day documentation work happens. A common path is:
Project list → Project dashboard → Project settings, versions, or documentation work
From the project list, you can open a project record and move into its dashboard. From there, you can continue into setup, settings, performance views, or documentation-related work.

Documentation work areas
When you are writing or reviewing content, you will usually move through paths like:
Project dashboard → Documentation pages
Project dashboard → Versions
Project dashboard → Editor
If your focus is creating or updating content, see Creating and Editing Documentation Pages.
Use the Menu to Move Between Areas
The menu is your main tool for moving around Atloria. It helps you switch between broad work areas without needing to go back to the beginning each time.
In general, use the menu when you want to:
- switch from one major area to another
- move from the admin workspace to project work
- open settings or management pages
- return to a list after viewing a single record
As you move through Atloria, pay attention to whether you are in:
- a top-level area, such as admin or projects
- a list view, such as a project list
- a single record, such as one project or one page
- a detailed working area, such as the editor
This simple habit makes navigation much easier, especially when you are new.
Follow Common Navigation Paths
Here are a few common ways people move through Atloria.
Open a project from the project list

Projects → Project list → Select a project → Project dashboard
Use this path when you want to:
- review project status
- continue setup
- open project settings
- access documentation work
For more detail, see Working with Project Lists and Dashboards.
Move from a project dashboard to project setup or settings
A common path is:
Project dashboard → Setup or Settings
Use this path when you need to:
- finish onboarding
- review website options
- update project controls
- manage related project options
For more detail, see Managing Project Administration from the Project Home, Creating Projects and Completing Onboarding, and Managing Project Settings and Website Options.
Move from a project dashboard to documentation work

Use this path when you want to create, update, or organize content.
For more detail, see Creating and Editing Documentation Pages.
Move through admin pages
A common path is:
Admin workspace → Analytics, Users and Permissions, or Security and Audit
Use this path when you need to review organization-level information or controls.
For more detail, see Using the Admin Workspace.
Open and Review Records
In Atloria, a record is a single item you open from a list or dashboard. For example, a project in a project list is a record. A documentation page can also be treated as a record when you open it to review or edit it.
A simple pattern to remember is:
List → Select item → Record view → Related actions
When you open a record, look for:
- the title at the top of the page
- the surrounding menu options
- nearby actions for editing, reviewing, or managing that item
- breadcrumbs that show where the record sits in Atloria
If you are not sure where you are, return to the related list or dashboard using the menu or breadcrumbs.
Use Breadcrumbs to Keep Your Place
Breadcrumbs help you understand where you are inside Atloria. They usually show the path from a broader area to the page you are viewing.
For example, you may see a path that follows this pattern:
Projects → Project name → Current page
Use breadcrumbs when you want to:
- go back one level
- return to the project dashboard
- confirm which project or section you are working in
- avoid getting lost after opening several pages
Breadcrumbs are especially useful when you move from a list into a single project and then into a deeper page such as settings or documentation work.
Use Search to Find What You Need Faster
Search is the quickest way to find a project, page, or other item when you do not want to browse through menus.
Use search when:
- you already know the name of what you want
- you need to jump directly to a project or page
- you want to avoid clicking through several levels
- you are returning to something you worked on recently
When searching, try:
- the full name
- part of the name
- a distinctive word from the title
If your first search does not help, go back to the related list or dashboard and browse from there.
Stay Oriented as You Move Around
When learning Atloria, use this quick check on every page:
- Where am I? Look at the page title.
- What area is this in? Check the menu and breadcrumbs.
- What can I do here? Look for the main actions on the page.
- How do I go back? Use breadcrumbs or return to the related list.
This small routine helps you build confidence quickly.
