4.3 About the Activity sidebar

The Activity sidebar shows activities (specifically, tasks) initiated during the current session. The most recent task is displayed first.

Task notifications provide information (including in-progress, error, and completion messages) about tasks that were launched.

The Activity sidebar differs from the Activity screen because it displays only recent activity. The Activity screen, in contrast, displays all activities and allows you to list, sort, and filter them. For more information, see “About activities” (page 173).

The main menu provides access to resources; each resource screen contains an Actions menu.

If you are not authorized to view a resource, that resource does not appear in the main menu.

If you do not have the appropriate permissions to perform an action, the action does not appear on the Actions menu.
