The New Navigation
Gen3 replaces the left sidebar with a unified app launcher. Instead of fixed menu items, you have apps — each feature is an app you can pin, search, or launch.

Key UI Changes
Unified Search
Press Ctrl+K (or Cmd+K) anywhere to search for entities, apps, settings, or documentation. This replaces the old search bar.
Notebooks Replace Data Explorer
The classic Data Explorer is replaced by Notebooks — interactive documents where you write DQL queries, add markdown notes, and share analysis with your team.
Dashboards Are DQL-Powered
Classic dashboards used pre-built tiles (host health, service flow, etc.). Gen3 dashboards use DQL queries for every tile. More flexible, but requires DQL knowledge.
Problems View
The Problems screen looks similar but now shows data from dt.davis.problems in Grail. You can query problems with DQL directly.

Account Management Portal
Gen3 introduces a separate Account Management portal for:
- User and group management (moved from environment level)
- OAuth client creation (replaces API tokens for many use cases)
- Policy and permission management (ABAC)
- Environment provisioning
- License and subscription management
