The Nuvolos logo

The breadcrumb

The breadcrumb shows your current location in Nuvolos and provides links to higher levels in the hierarchy. It helps you understand where you are and lets you quickly navigate back to previous levels.

For example, when you are viewing a state overview, the breadcrumb indicates which space you are in and which instance you are currently working in.

You can use the breadcrumb to navigate back to your Dashboard or to move one level up to the Space overview. After selecting the space level, the breadcrumb updates to reflect your new location.

The sidebar

The navigational sidebar provides access to the main views in Nuvolos when working at the state level or inside applications.

From top to bottom, the icons in the sidebar take the user to the following views, which are also shown when hovering over an icon:

• Overview

• Files

• Tables

• Applications

• Snapshot creation

• Staging and distribution

The currently active view is highlighted with a darker background.

The organisation selection

Organisations serve as the highest structural level in Nuvolos. Depending on which organisation you are working in, you will be able to access different datasets, different research projects and classes. Consequently, if you cannot find a certain project, always check the organisation selection that is available on top.
