Overview
Open buildwithtrace.com/dashboard and sign in to the intended account. The dashboard separates personal conversations, team designs and account management.
- Sessions: personal chat histories at
/dashboard/sessions. - Teams: team selection at
/dashboard/teams. - Team Projects: shared designs at
/dashboard/t/{teamId}/projects. - Usage/Billing: current account allowance, purchases and subscription controls where offered.
- Orders/Settings: permitted order and account controls.
The team identified in the URL determines the team page. Use its picker or
return to Teams to change teams; do not assume a default team owns every design.
Legacy /dashboard/projects is a personal Sessions route, not a team-project
directory.
Ask Mode (Web Chat)
Open a personal session to read its message history. If web chat is offered for that session and account, use it for supported questions and inspect the response.
How It Works
- Open Sessions, not a team's Projects list.
- Select the intended conversation and read its context.
- Check any offered chat controls, access restrictions and attachment support.
- Ask a bounded question without assuming the browser has the desktop's live design or native tools.
Supported chat, usage and rate limits depend on the current account and deployment; do not treat an older fixed daily limit as a current allowance.
Project Thumbnails
A session or project card may show a preview image. It is a navigation aid, not proof that the current design was loaded, synchronized or verified. Use the name and actual project/session details to identify your work.
Team projects
Open the intended team and its Projects tab. These are shared designs, not all members' personal conversations. Available actions come from current project capabilities.
To edit a cloud working copy, use the compatible desktop's Workspaces flow. Web browsing does not change the project or branch open in Trace. Review the included content when adding a saved project.
Crash Reporting
Desktop crash reporting is separate from dashboard project sharing. Read the reporting prompt and current privacy disclosure before submitting diagnostics. Logs and identifiers can contain sensitive information; this guide does not promise that every report excludes all personal/design data. Use the agreed support path for confidential attachments.
Notifications
In-App Notifications
Use the dashboard's notification controls for available team/account messages. A notification or email is not a Workspaces completion receipt. Inspect the operation itself before assuming a Push, Open or merge finished.
Email Notifications
Review the offered preferences under Settings → Notifications. Product/marketing preferences and necessary account or transaction messages can have different handling; follow the current screen rather than assume a master toggle suppresses every email.
Dark Mode
Use the dashboard's theme control when offered. Browser and desktop theme preferences are separate settings.
If something is unavailable
Check the signed-in account, URL's team and displayed permission/error. An empty list and a failed load are different. Refresh a read when appropriate; do not create duplicate projects to recover a failed list. For an uncertain native action, use Workspaces recovery.
