Here's what to expect the first time you sign in, and a quick tour of where everything lives.

## Signing in

1. **Go to the login page and enter your email and password.** Use the credentials from your welcome email. If you don't have a password yet, use **Forgot password** to set one.
2. **Pick a workspace if asked.** If your account has more than one organization or project, you'll choose one now. Otherwise you go straight to the dashboard. See [How HexaFloww is organized](https://hexafloww.com/docs/getting-started/how-hexafloww-is-organized.md).

## The dashboard

The dashboard (`/admin`) is your home screen. For a new project it shows a **"Get set up"** checklist at the top — follow it to connect a channel and send your first campaign. See [The setup checklist](https://hexafloww.com/docs/getting-started/onboarding-checklist.md).

## Finding your way around

- **Left sidebar** — every module, grouped: Contacts, Connect Accounts, Email, WhatsApp, Social Inbox, Automations, and more. Hover a group to see its pages.
- **Top bar** — the workspace switcher (your organization and project name), the AI credits chip, the **notifications bell**, and your account menu.
- **Settings** — at the bottom of the sidebar: email sending, AI provider, team, projects, API keys, and billing.

> [!TIP]
> **If a page says you don't have access**
> Your **role** controls what you can see and do. Ask an organization admin to adjust it — see [Invite teammates & user roles](https://hexafloww.com/docs/getting-started/invite-your-team.md).
