Observe UI Elements

AppDynamics Cloud incorporates several UI functions.

Nav Tool	Icon	Description
Navigation path	–	A hyperlinked navigation map that indicates the path you took to get where you are in the application. As you navigate AppDynamics Cloud, each click is appended to the navigation path. To return to a previously viewed page, click the corresponding link in the navigation path or click the back arrow in your browser. In a multiple-entity view, the path is appended until you click an entity. When you switch to a single-entity detail view, the navigation path is replaced with a link to the entity in focus. The navigation path continues to build again until you select a multiple-entity view by, for example, clicking Services.
