### Intro
This article explains how to find and start creating content through Domo's navigation bar and main menu and how to personalize your navigation experience.
***
### Access Domo's Navigation
You can find Domo Navigation on the left side of your browser window from every screen in Domo—except full-screen editors like those in Workflows or App Studio.
By default, the navigation displays only the icon for each item.
To expand the navigation bar and show all icons with their titles, select the Domo icon at the bottom of the navigation or any empty space within the navigation bar.
### Enable Navigation in Your Instance
If you are a **Domo Administrator** , you can enable or disable the navigation for all users or a specific group of users. Learn more about the [Domo administrator role](https://domo-support.domo.com/s/article/360043438953?language=en_US#admin) .
To enable Domo Navigation in your instance, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to the
**Admin** menu.
2. Under
**Features** , select **Feature management** .
3. Choose one of the following settings:
1. **Not enabled in your instance**
— Disables the navigation for all users.
2. **Enabled for everyone**
— Enables the navigation for everyone in your instance.
3. **Enabled for admins**
— Enables the new navigation for administrators only.
4. **Enabled for a specific group**
— Enables the navigation for a specific Domo group.
You can create a group with a specific subset of users to enable navigation, or you can remove them from a group to exclude them.
4. Select
**Save** to apply your enablement settings.
### Lock the Navigation Bar
When the Domo Navigation is unpinned, it hovers over the rest of the screen.
When you select the pin icon in the left corner of the expanded navigation, it stays in the fixed location and does not cover any part of the screen.
To lock and unlock the expanded state of the navigation, select the pin icon in the top right corner of the navigation bar.
**Note:**
After locking the navigation, it remains pinned throughout Domo until you select
**Close**
to collapse it.
### Access and Create Content
In the Domo navigation bar, you can view your instance's logo, name, and URL, access and create content through the main menu, find your pinned items, and view your user profile.
#### Find Your Instance's Logo, Name, and URL

#### Find Your Pinned Items
When you pin an item, such as a Domo feature, App Studio app, card, or link, it shows in the pinned items section of the navigation. Learn how to [pin items to your Domo navigation](#pin-items) .
**Note:**
When you pin multiple items, the navigation bar automatically adjusts. If the space is filled, you can access all your pinned items from a sub-menu, indicated by the
**All navigation items**
icon. Select this icon to view the complete list and navigate to any of your pinned assets.
#### Open Your Profile
You can find personal settings and activity, including **Account Details** , **Notifications** , and **Sign Out,** by selecting the **User Profile** icon at the bottom of the navigation.
