About Navigating XM Discover

Users with Configuration Analyst licenses and with linked accounts can switch between the Studio and Designer applications. Depending on license type and permissions, users can also switch to Connectors and the inbox.

Switching to Designer allows linked users to upload data, configure topics (classification models), and tune sentiment. Please refer to Designer Basic Overview for more information.

You can log into either application and choose to open the second application in a new tab or new browser window if you wish to work in Studio and Designer in parallel.

Navigating Studio

There are 2 main menus within Studio that allow you to navigate to different pages within the application: the Spaces menu and the Avatar menu.

Spaces Menu

To access the Spaces menu, click Spaces in the top-right of your Studio account.
