--- title: Dashboard overview description: Navigate Eigent's Home dashboard and manage Spaces, Projects, Tasks, and Triggers. icon: grid-2 --- The Home dashboard is the management surface for work across Eigent. Use it to find active work, review history, organize projects, and manage automations without opening each project first. ## Open the dashboard 1. Open Eigent. 2. In the main navigation, select **Home**. 3. Select **Spaces**, **Projects**, **Tasks**, or **Triggers**. The active section appears in the URL, so returning to the same link restores that section. > **Screenshot placeholder:** Add a full-width screenshot of the Home dashboard with the four section tabs and toolbar visible. Use sample data that does not contain customer information. ## Dashboard sections ### Spaces Spaces are top-level work areas. A Space can use an Eigent-managed scratch folder or connect directly to a local folder. Each Space contains projects, tasks, files, and triggers. ### Projects Projects group related tasks and follow-up runs. Open a project to continue its conversation, review files, or inspect agent activity. ### Tasks Tasks provide a cross-project history of requests. Use this view when you know the prompt or task status but not the containing project. ### Triggers Triggers run project prompts on a schedule, through a webhook, or from a supported application event. ## Use the toolbar The toolbar changes the active dashboard section without changing how its items are managed. | Control | Purpose | | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | Search | Filters the active section by name or prompt | | Sort | Sorts by created time, updated time, or name | | Grid | Shows visual cards with key metadata | | List | Shows compact rows for scanning many items | | Board | Groups items into status columns | | Create | Starts a blank Space or a Space connected to a local folder | Search and sort reset when you move to another section. The selected layout persists for future visits. ## Understand board status Board view organizes work into three operational groups: - **Default:** Work that is not currently executing or waiting for review. - **Running:** Work with an active task or execution. - **Awaiting review:** Work that needs user input or a decision. The exact status of a card still appears in its metadata. ## Start new work 1. In the Home toolbar, open the create menu. 2. Choose **Start from scratch** for an Eigent-managed workspace, or **Use local folder** to connect existing files. 3. Eigent opens the new Space in the Workspace. 4. Enter a task, select Single Agent or Workforce mode, and send the request. > **Video placeholder:** Add a short MP4 showing a user creating a Space, starting a task, and returning to the dashboard to find the new Project and Task. Include captions. ## Manage existing work Cards and rows expose actions appropriate to their type: - Rename or delete a project. - Open, share, or delete a task. - Pause or resume an ongoing task. - Edit, enable, disable, or delete a trigger. - Open a Space and continue work in its Workspace. ## Next steps Learn how Spaces define file and project boundaries.
