The content of Main Menu is dynamic. Content depends on roles, permissions, and services activated for the namespace. The picture on the right shows the full Main Menu. The following list of selections is not available for all user accounts. Only Dashboard is available for everyone.

Some user accounts see more information than others, as available information depends on the roles each user account has. You are able to hide/show panels by pressing the button on the top-right side of the screen "Panels".
For normal users, Dashboard provides easy access to some more common functions.
Users can quickly change their user preferences from the dashboard and can make some other actions regarding their user data from here. The user can also quickly view information about their current log in session from here.

Namespaces
As described briefly earlier, Trivore Identity Service is a multi-tenant system. A tenant is a customer organisation. A namespace in Trivore Identity Serivce Service roughly represents a tenant, and menu selection Namespaces is where tenants are managed. To make things more flexible, one customer organisation may have multiple namespaces, which can be managed with a single, or multiple user accounts (as needed). It is recommended to combine customer organisations (tenants) multiple namespaces together by defining a common prefix for the namespace code, when it is created. This is not mandatory, but makes managing the platform easier and less error-prone.
Below is a picture of Trivore Identity Service after selecting Namespaces on the Main Menu. This selection opens the list of namespaces. The current namespace will be highlighted in bold.
The selection buttons Add, Edit, and Delete are rather intuitive, and deserve not much explanation. In the upright corner is a menu button Actions, which opens a menu for executing less common tasks, such as importing new namespace(s), exporting a selected existing namespace(s), exporting all existing namespaces, or printing a report on namespaces.
This Main Menu selection is only available for user accounts with role Portal Admin or Portal Auditor.
Namespace
As described briefly in the chapter introduction, this is where basic information and settings of current namespace is managed. Selecting this menu selection on the Main Menu directly opens namespace editor. The configuration button will show you a drop-down menu, The following options within this drop-down menu are:
- Edit namespace, which will open the editor for the selected namespace.
- Default policies, which will open the default policies editor for the selected namespace.
- Outside user access, which will open a dialogue for managing users who do not belong to the namespace but are allowed access to it. You can add and remove the users from this dialogue.
This Main Menu selection is only available for user accounts with role Namespace Portal Admin or Namespace Auditor who can edit or view (respectively) their “own” namespace settings.
Next we will cover briefly the namespace editor tabs. It is important those responsible of namespace settings in general and security specifically, are familiar with these settingsPortal Auditor.
Core
This tab contains the basic information about the namespace. Name given to namespace makes the namespace identifiable and unique. Other settings define some general settings used for all users in the namespace.
