Dashboard at a glance

The Sanity Dashboard is the central hub for your organization's content operations. Here you'll find your deployed studios, custom apps, and official Sanity apps like Canvas and Media Library.

Your dashboard is centered around your organization, and gives access to deployed studios and apps within the organization, across projects and datasets.

What about the dashboard plugin?

Touring the dashboard interface

Your dashboard consists of the main area, which will adapt to the app you are currently working in, side navigation sections, and expanding panels.

1. Main content area

The main content area adapts to whatever app you're currently working in. Shown below is a studio as the active app in the dashboard.

If there is no active app, this area defaults to show you links to your most likely destinations, favorites, and insights about your content.

2. Dashboard navigation and expanding panels

The top section in the left sidebar is where you'll switch between your organizations and toggle panels like notifications, favorites, or the Content Agent.

Content Agent

If your organization has Content Agent enabled, you can open it from here at any time. Content Agent lets you ask questions about your data, make changes, and more.

3. Application navigation

Dashboard with application navigation highlighted

The application navigation section lets you navigate between Sanity applications, your studios, and your custom apps.

Canvas & Media Library

The official Sanity apps available to your organization, such as Canvas and Media Library, appear here. Selecting them will open them in the main section of the dashboard.

Studios and custom apps

Below the official Sanity apps, you'll find any custom apps and studios deployed by your organization. If you can't find an app or studio you expected to see here, your studio maintainer might have to do a little configuration first.

You can pin any studios or applications from the “Studios & Apps” page by selecting the “pin” icon. Pinning a studio or app only pins it for you, not everyone in your organization.

4. Account settings and help

Account settings area of dashboard highlighted

Select the “question mark” icon to open the help and feedback menu. Here you'll find links to contact support, view the documentation, and more. Hope to see you in our community!
