Navigating the workspace

Before you begin ingesting data and creating dashboards, take a few minutes to become familiar with Observe user interface.

Overview of the Observe Workspace

Observe provides a workspace as a starting place to begin ingesting data and building your observability dashboards. When you navigate the menu on the left, choosing an icon allows you to perform different functions to work with your data.
