Learn how to open an app and take action from the information on the App details page. ## Opening an existing application for the first time {#qs-find-info-about-an-app-servicenow-studio__id_xtm_tnd_4fc} The first time you open ServiceNow Studio, open your apps from the Navigator panel on the left side of the screen. You can search for the app or select it from the list. When you select an app, it opens the entire contents of the app in the Navigator panel, with all file types organized by category, such as Automation. Open the app in a new integrated tab by selecting App details. For more information about opening applications, see [Find an app or app file using the Navigator panel](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/fsSYuh5cwiYHdkGtUqdJ6A "Use the Navigator panel in ServiceNow Studio to find and open an app or app file."). ## Opening apps for continued work {#qs-find-info-about-an-app-servicenow-studio__id_glx_snd_4fc} After the first time you've opened an app, it displays on the ServiceNow Studio home page in the Recently opened apps section. Recently opened files are also accessible from the home page. You can also access the Recent section of the Navigator panel to find apps and files you've worked on based on certain time periods. ## App details features {#qs-find-info-about-an-app-servicenow-studio__id_fx5_215_rfc} On the App details page, you can find information about your app and perform several actions in your application. 1. From the Navigator panel, see a high-level view of the files organized by category. You can bookmark files or apps, open the full list of any file type, or filter the list to see just what you're looking for. For more information, see [Bookmark apps and app files in ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/OYvkUs~jgAftPAS_pNDfyA "Easily bookmark apps and app files from several locations for quick access in ServiceNow Studio."). 2. The Files section shows featured file types (Data, User Interface, Automation, and Security) or all file types. You can also filter or sort the list to see the files you want to work with. For more information, see [Working with metadata app file categories in the ServiceNow Studio Navigator](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ISvTc3qR~HpHCFCSptYAbA "ServiceNow Studio enables you to work with all types of metadata that the ServiceNow AI Platform supports, from automations and integrations to user interface files."). 3. The page header shows metadata about your app and enables you to summarize an app using Now Assist for app summary generation and create files directly in the app using the + Create option. You might see a badge next to the app title such as Creator Studio, AI, or Fluent. These badges help you understand where an app was created and how it might need to be deployed. For more information, see [Summarize the contents of an app in ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/pNgvpqcWQpaa5dO1uVV0Ww "Generate a summary of your app using Now Assist for Creator in ServiceNow Studio.

View app origination information on the App details page in ServiceNow Studio."). 4. In the top right corner, you have access to several actions you can perform in your app. Select the more options icon ![]() to link the app to source control, invite collaborators, access settings, or publish, refresh, or delete the app. If an app is linked to source control, the available source control operations display in a menu next to the Summary button.

Each file record shows metadata about the file. You can select the file to open it, select Add to add new files of that type, or easily bookmark files.

For example, you could add a security file using ServiceNow Studio to define which users can access the app."). 6. At the bottom of each App details page, you can see the scope and update set associated with the current app. Remember, scope switches automatically as you switch between integrated tabs in ServiceNow Studio. You can also create a new update set and associate app changes to it for publishing. For more information, see [Open apps and app files across scopes in ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/2FUIr8MQcc2BOuG9QfSAWQ "In ServiceNow Studio, you can open and edit apps and app files in any scope, global or custom.
