Introduction
The dashboard is your home base in Gamma. From here you can start a new gamma, pick up a recent chat, find and organize your work, and manage templates, themes and workspace settings.
🔷 Note: The dashboard has two side panels. The icon bar on the far left switches between main areas (Home, Media, Templates, Customize, Settings, More). The panel next to it changes depending on which area you're in.
How to Use the Gamma Dashboard
Step 1: Start Creating from Home
When you open Gamma, you'll land on Home → Create. Type what you want to make into the "What do you want to make?" box and send it.
+ (Add or connect): Upload files and photos, add a template, add an existing gamma, or use Connectors.
Settings (slider icon): Pick Plan mode (the default: review the template and plan before Gamma creates anything) or Express mode (faster, skips the plan review). You can also turn on Research here.
Model picker: Choose which AI model creates your gamma.
Quick-start buttons: Jump straight into a Presentation, Document, Carousel, Image, Beautify or Import.
Suggested templates: Start from one of your workspace's templates, or click View all templates.
Step 2: Pick Up Where You Left Off
Recent chats: Every AI conversation you've had in Gamma. Use the Active and Archived tabs to sort them.
Recent gammas: The gammas you've viewed or edited most recently.
Step 3: Search
Click Search, or press ⌘+K (Mac) / Ctrl+K (Windows), to search the titles and content of every gamma you can access. Results are ranked by relevance.
Step 4: Browse All Your Gammas
Click All to see your folders and every gamma you have access to.
Filter by All, Recently viewed, Created by you or Favorites, sort by Last edited and other options, and switch between Grid and List view.
Each thumbnail matches the format of its gamma, so documents, 4:3 presentations and social carousels each preview in their own shape.
💎 Pro Tip: Add the gammas you use most to Favorites so they're easy to find.
Step 5: Shared with You
See gammas other people have shared with you, with the same filters and view options as All.
Step 6: Sites
Every Gamma site you've created lives here. Sites also show up in All.
Step 7: API Generated
Anything you’ve generated with the Gamma API shows up here.
Step 8: Stay Organized with Folders
Under Folders, click Create a folder (or the +) to add a new folder.
When you create a folder, you decide who can see it: only you, specific people you invite, or your whole workspace.
To add a gamma to a folder, drag and drop it onto the folder.
To take it out, open the folder, click the gamma, then select Remove from folder.
Step 9: Trash
Click Trash to restore deleted gammas or delete them permanently.
Step 10: Manage Your Media
Click Media in the icon bar to find images you've uploaded or made with AI. You can browse them, reuse them, and generate new ones from this page.
Step 11: Browse Templates
Click Templates in the icon bar.
Workspace templates: Your team's own templates. Filter by Recent, Created by you or Archived, and click Add a gamma to turn an existing gamma into a template.
Explore templates: Browse Gamma's template gallery.
Step 12: Personalize Gamma with Customize
Click Customize in the icon bar to control how your gammas look and how the AI works for you.
Themes: Browse Custom, Standard and Archived themes, or click New theme to build your own. You can also import one from a PPT.
Custom fonts: Upload your own fonts for custom branding.
Custom instructions (Beta): Set instructions that apply to all your AI generations automatically, from personal preferences to workspace-wide brand rules.
Icon library: Manage the icon sets available in your gammas.
🌀 Insight: Looking for the old Library tab? It hasn't gone anywhere. It's now called Customize to reflect that it's where you customize fonts, instructions, icons, and themes.
Step 13: Manage Settings
Click Settings in the icon bar.
Workspace: Overview, Members & groups, Billing, Sharing & access, and Design & templates.
Personal: My connectors and My API keys.
Step 14: Switch Workspaces or Manage Your Account
Click your workspace avatar or initials at the bottom of the icon bar to switch workspaces, open account settings, change your language or sign out.
Step 15: Explore More
Click More (•••) in the icon bar to find the Gamma API, Gamma’s social channels, open roles and Gamma Lab.
Step 16: Get Help or Share Feedback
Click the ? in the bottom-right corner for What’s new in Gamma, Help center, Contact support and Share feedback.
You can also click the feedback icon near the bottom of the icon bar to reach the Help center, Contact support or Share feedback.
