# Navigation

## Side Navigation Overview

The side navigation in Cloudscaff is your main workspace control panel. It provides quick access to all key modules — from your profile and company branches to site and inventory management, logs, and reports.

This helps maximize workspace on smaller screens like tablets or laptops.

The **User Profile** section allows you to manage your personal information and account details within Cloudscaff. Keeping your profile up to date ensures accurate communication, clear identification on reports and logs, and a personalized app experience.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cloudscaff.com/navigation/navigation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
