A walk through the Sela dashboard sidebar, section by section, plus the mobile app and the customer-facing surfaces: the chat widget, storefront, form pages and public catalog.

آخر تحديث: 2026-10-08

This page walks through the Sela dashboard in the order the sidebar shows it, says what each section is for, and links to the page that covers it in depth. It ends with the other surfaces of the platform: the mobile app and the pages your customers see.

How the dashboard is laid out#

The dashboard has two levels of navigation. A narrow rail shows groups: Overview, Conversations, Work, Customers, Automation and Settings. Choosing a group shows the pages inside it in a second column. The dashboard is available in Arabic (with right-to-left layout) and in English.

Two shortcuts help everywhere. Press Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on Mac) to search from anywhere in the dashboard. A padlock next to an item means your plan does not include it yet. Choosing it leads to Settings, then Plan & usage. What you see also depends on your role, which is explained in Team, roles and permissions.

Overview#

PageWhat it is for
HomeThe live performance dashboard: what is waiting, who is unassigned, and 7 to 90 day trends. Trial workspaces also see an activation checklist here.
ActivityA feed of what is happening across the workspace.
ReportsWork, appointment and invoice summaries with export.

Read Reports and analytics for what each screen shows and which permissions it needs.

Conversations#

PageWhat it is for
InboxEvery conversation from every connected channel, with views, filters, assignment, statuses, internal notes, shortcuts and a context panel.
Operations inboxThe queue of pending operations, such as orders your team must approve. Needs the AI Assist add-on. See Orders and payment links.

The inbox is where your team spends most of the day. See Inbox and conversations. To pause the assistant on a conversation, take it over or hand it back, see AI control and takeover.

Store#

Restaurant and Standard Store workspaces have a Store group for selling from your own page.

PageWhat it is for
OverviewStorefront status, your public link and QR code, the setup checklist, today's orders, and pausing orders.
OrdersThe live orders board for storefront and AI chat orders, from new to delivered, plus history.
StorefrontDesign and publish your store page.
Options, InventoryOption groups and add-ons, product or dish editing, rows and image cards, stock counts for stores and sold-out switches.
Reports, CustomersSales, best sellers, cancellations, and the people who ordered.

See Storefront and Orders and payment links.

Work#

PageWhat it is for
WorkBoards, work items, tasks and reminders.
AppointmentsThe team calendar.
ApprovalsRequests that need someone's decision.
Delivery: SLA, PlaybooksResponse-time targets and operating guides.

Work and appointments need the Operations plan or higher. See Tasks, work items and approvals, Notifications, SLA and escalations and Bookings and appointments.

Customers#

PageWhat it is for
ContactsYour customer records, with lifecycle stage, fields, tags, channel identities, merging and import.
CompaniesOrganizations your contacts belong to.
FilesFiles linked to your work and customers.
BillingQuotes, invoices and receipts you send to your own customers.

This Billing page is about your customers' invoices, not your Sela subscription. Your subscription is under Settings, then Data & plan, then Plan & usage. See Contacts and CRM and Orders and payment links.

Automation#

The Automation group holds two things: the automation hub, and the tools that shape the AI assistant.

PageWhat it is for
AutomationThe hub with Templates, Workflows, Built-in and Activity tabs. Rules that run without the AI.
WhatsApp marketing (under Outbound)Broadcasts to WhatsApp audiences.
Knowledge base (under Catalog & AI)The documents and notes the assistant may quote.
AI toolsExisting tools, connections and skills for the assistant.
AI assistantTurning AI and its replies on or off, and the assistant's name, brand, tone and rules.

Read Automations and proactive messages, then the AI pages: Assistant identity and scope, Knowledge base, Tools and actions and Catalog and products.

Settings#

Settings is organized in labeled groups.

GroupPages
Top levelWorkspace setup, Environment
PeopleTeam, Team settings
Inbox settingsContact fields, Lifecycle, Conversations, Business hours, Shortcuts, Forms, Tags
Channels & appsIntegrations, WhatsApp, Calls, Email, SMS, Voice assistant, Webhooks, API keys, Widget, White label
Data & planFile settings, Import & export, Plan & usage, Support

This is where you connect channels (Integrations), set business hours, configure lifecycle stages and notification routing, manage your team, buy a plan and create API keys. See Settings and white-label, Plans and billing and Team, roles and permissions.

The mobile app#

The Sela app for iPhone and Android is for your team, not your customers. The bottom tabs are Chats, Contacts, Work, Overview and More. It has the same account, roles and plan limits as the dashboard, and adds push notifications and an escalation queue with claim and release buttons that the web does not have. See Mobile app.

Surfaces your customers see#

These are not part of the dashboard, but they are created from it.

SurfaceWhat it isWhere to learn more
Chat widgetA chat button and panel on your website, powered by one script tag.Web chat widget, Widget JavaScript API
Customer form pageA personal link (on forms.usesela.com) your team sends from a conversation to collect information, such as an address.Contacts and CRM, Forms and catalog embeds

None of the storefront, the form page or the catalog page is an embeddable script or a developer API. Link to them. Only the chat widget is embedded in your site.

Where to go next#

Catalog learning in the AI assistant#

For Store workspaces, AI assistant, then Catalog learning contains product imports from files, images and Instagram, and import draft review. Add and edit products in Store, then Inventory, where you can choose rows or image cards. Connected Instagram accounts also link to catalog learning from Extra features. See Catalog and products.

AI assistant, then Reply style learns from saved employee replies on Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp. Active channel connections link to it from Extra features. Review the suggestion before applying it to the default assistant. See Learning employee reply style.
