Agents Interface is designed for support agents and administrators to manage content and community easier. You can get to any object in the system, have a system overview and go to the Administration area.
Only administrators and agents can see this interface
You are automatically redirected to the agent interface on login. But once you enter the community home screen, you can access to it manually from the top bar directly to the Dashboard or Requests.
If you want users to have access to a specific location in the system, please define top tabs in Administration » Interface » Home Screen.
