# Studio at a glance

> Find your chats, automations, skills and files in Studio.

Studio has three main areas: navigation on the left, your conversation in the centre and viewers beside it when you open a file or model.

## Find your work in the sidebar

| Area | What you use it for |
| - | - |
| **Conversation** | Talk to AI and continue the current task. |
| **History** | Find earlier chats and organize them into projects. |
| **Workbench** | Edit your personal working copies of files. |
| **Automations** | Find and run saved tasks, or share them with your workspace. |
| **Skills** | Keep reusable instructions and your workspace Guidelines. |
| **Project files** | Browse files shared in the workspace. Some versions label this area **Projects**. |
| **Timeline** | Find recent files produced in the workspace. |
| **Trash** | Find deleted files and restore them when available. |

Use the workspace selector to choose whose library and shared resources you are working with. A project groups related chats; the project name at the top of a chat shows where that chat belongs.

## Send a request

The message box at the bottom of the conversation is where you type a prompt. Its controls let you choose an AI model, connect an application, attach files and select skills.

**Connected Apps** selects the application document AI works on. For example, choosing a Revit project here lets AI work with that open model. See [Prompting](https://docs.ideatura.ai/v2/get-started/prompting.md) for the controls.

## Open a result

Click a file or model card in a conversation to open it in a viewer beside the chat. Use the viewer to inspect PDFs, images and 3D models while discussing them with AI. Changes to a connected Revit or AutoCAD document can also be inspected in that application.

## Settings and help

Open **Settings** for your account, preferences, updates and add-in repair. To report a problem, use the **bug icon** in Studio and describe what happened. Include the affected chat and what you expected to happen.
