A research project will often have the feel of a report. You can use a structure of entities, connected to your project study, to organize and structure your findings.

Step 1: Create a new study or open an existing study

Click the create new button to start a new study, or in the universe.

Step 2: Open the universe navigation pane

Step 3: Navigate to List or Tree view and populate your new study with new or existing entities and studies

If the view that opens is not centered on the study you want to work on, search for the search bar and set the focus on the study

The difference between the tree and the list view is that in the list view, the links are automatically made for you for studies you drag into the list. In the tree view, you need to make the connections yourself.

You can start building a structure for your project in the tree and list view. This can be done in multiple ways.

  • Creating New Study or entities: On the left bar, you have a New Study and New entity button, you can drag those into your tree or your list to create a new study. You can directly change the name of those studies in the tree or list view

  • Connect an existing study or entity: In the search bar, you can search for an existing study or entity, and drag it into your current project.

Once you have created your page, you can ‘Pin it’ to easily access it from anywhere on the platform. To see how, visit: Pin your page

Go to the Universe button and open your Universe navigation pane. The whole universe graph will open
