This article provides useful information on the features and functionalities of your navigation bar. This is the menu that appears on your left-hand side once you log in to the Tradeshift platform, and which includes the Tradeshift apps installed and pinned on your account, your user settings and support space. 

These are some of the tasks you can perform through the navigation bar:

• Read your messages through the Messages app.
• Find the apps you need and navigate to them through clicking anywhere on the navigation bar or clicking on "All apps".
• Customize your view, by pinning apps to the navigation bar; click on "All apps", open the search and click the star icon next to each app that you want pinned.
• Switch between branches of your company by clicking on "Switch branch" under the apps list.
• Go to your user settings, where you can manage your account language, password, and notification, among others.
• Access your support page, where you can read documentation in the Knowledge Base, access your customer or company's landing page, and contact Tradeshift Support.

The navigation bar is expandable, which allows you to adjust its display and to use it as needed:

• To look for an app and navigate to it, expand the navigation bar, which then displays both the app name and the app icon.
• To gain more screen space for a detailed view of the app you are using, collapse the navigation bar. When collapsed, the navigation bar displays only the pinned app icons
