Navigation bar

From the navigation bar, you can access the actions and sections at the core of your workspace:

  • Create lets you create a new view

  • Workspace lets you handle the settings of your workspace

  • Users lets you invite users to your workspace and set their roles

as well as access the views that are part of your workspace and that you have access to.

View

A view is a lens you can use to look at and interact with the items saved in a database from your workspace.

View top bar

Every view has a top bar that contains:

  • breadcrumbs to let you climb back the tree structure of your views

  • the Setup link that directs you to the view settings bar

  • the Help link that directs you to the Intercom messenger where you can ask for help from the Skippet team

View header

Every view has a header where you can:

  • (re)name the view

  • use the view toolbar to:

    • create new items

    • filter and sort existing ones

    • access the view settings bar

View body

Every view has a body where your data is displayed as items in a table, calendar, ….

View settings bar

Every view has a setting bar where you can set the settings of the view and its inner database.

In the settings bar, you can find the following subsections:

  • Bookmarks, where you can manage combinations of filters and sorts saved as shortcuts

  • View, where you can set how to display items in the view

  • Permissions, where you can define who can interact with which items

  • Fields, where you can define the structure of your items

  • Automations, where you can automate changes to your items

and, last but not least, actions to take on the view itself.

What’s next?

In Skippet, you can organize your data in databases of items, using different types of fields, such as text, date, or file.
