Finding your way: menus, search and themes

The app menu, greyed-out items, the Help menu, searching help, light and dark themes, and using Vestoris on a phone.

The app menu

The menu bar is the same for everyone: Dashboard, Portfolio Center, Orders, Compliance, Workflow, Navigator, System and Help. Open a group with its name (it goes to the first page you may use) or the ▾ button (the list of its pages). Data and Interfaces is a submenu of System: point at it, click it, or press → on it to open its list beside the menu (on a phone it opens inside the ☰ menu).

Every help article has an At a glance box with the menu path ("Where") and the roles that can use the screen ("Who").

Greyed-out items

Every item is shown, so people can see what Vestoris does. An item your role and privileges do not allow is greyed out and is not a link; hover it (or use a screen reader) to see why, for example "Needs the privilege to load data." Ask your Admin if you need it.

System › Data and Interfaces for a Viewer: only History and as-of and the Data Feed Reference are open.

Help is always there

The Help menu, the help center and the developer docs are public: they need no sign-in. Search them from the box at the top of the help center or of any article: it covers every help article, the developer docs, the API reference and the Data Feed Reference. Press / to jump to the search box, the arrow keys to pick a suggestion and Enter to open it. Titles and headings rank above matches in the text; type a call such as POST /orders to go straight to that endpoint.

Light and dark

The moon and sun button (top right) switches between light and dark; your choice is kept in this browser. Without a choice Vestoris follows your device's setting. The trade blotter opens dark unless you chose light.

On a phone or tablet

Every page works on a phone: the menu becomes ☰, wide tables scroll sideways inside their box, and the blotter shows each order as a card with its details full screen. Uploading a folder needs a .zip of it on phones and tablets.

Keyboard

  • / focuses the help search; Ctrl+K the blotter search.
  • On the blotter, arrow keys move the selection and Enter opens the order's details.
  • Every page starts with a Skip to content link.

Do it with the API

Every action on this screen can also be done by your own systems, under the same permissions. See Authentication to get a token.

  • GET/api/v1/me Who the token acts as: user or service account, firm, role, privileges, scopes

Paper trading only: orders and fills in Vestoris are simulated. Nothing here is investment advice.
