The CodeStream sidebar surfaces all the items you need to see, and do, in a
customizable tree-based view that is always available.

Subsequent articles will go into more detail on each section, but here's a quick
overview.
<figcaption>The main sidebar sections are: Pull requests, Feedback requests, Codemarks, Observability, and Issues.</figcaption>

* [Pull Requests](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/pull-requests-section) - If your team uses GitHub or GitHub Enterprise to host your code, you'll see all of your open pull requests listed and you can just click on one to edit it or perform a review.
* [Feedback Requests](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/feedback-requests-section) - Any open feedback requests either assigned to you or requested by you are listed.
* [Codemarks](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/codemarks-section) - Whether they originated in a pull request, a feedback request, or through ad-hoc code comments/issues, "codemarks" are the discussions that annotate your codebase and all of the codemarks in the current repository are listed for reference.
* [Observability](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/observability-section) - Track error assigned to you on New Relic One, and discover recent errors in the repositories you have open in your IDE.
* [Issues](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/issues-section) - See all of your open issues, across multiple services, in one place, and click on one to update its status, create a feature branch to do your work, and even update your status on Slack.
## Sidebar overview [#overview]

The CodeStream sidebar is completely customizeable. Use drag-and-drop to reorder
the sections. Resize each one individually. Expand or collapse a section as
needed. There's also an option to maximize a section when you want to get a good
view of a longer list.
Here's a quick overview of the sidebar sections:

If there's a section you don't think you'll be using, you can hide it via the
View menu by clicking on your headshot at the top of the CodeStream pane.
* [Pull requests](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/pull-requests-section) - If your team uses GitHub or GitHub Enterprise to host your code, you'll see all of your open pull requests listed here. Click a specific pull request to start reviewing or editing it.
* [Feedback requests](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/feedback-requests-section) - If you've been assigned a feedback request or you've requested feedback from someone else, find those listed here.
* [Codemarks](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/codemarks-section) - Codemarks are the discussions that annotate your codebase. Codemarks are created pull requests, feedback requests, or through ad hoc code comments/issues. All of the codemarks in your current repository are listed for reference.
* [Observability](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/observability-section) - Track errors assigned to you in New Relic One and discover recent errors in the repositories you have open in your IDE.
* [Issues](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/issues-section) - See all of your open issues, across multiple services, in one place. Click a specific issue to update its status, create a feature branch to do your work, and update your status on Slack.

At the top-right of the CodeStream pane you'll find access to some options for
creating and discovering content in your team.
The CodeStream sidebar is completely customizable:

![Global Options](/images/GlobalOptions2.png)
* Drag and drop the sections to reorder them.
* Click and drag a section divider to resize the sections on either side.
* Expand or collapse each section as needed.
* Click the maximize button in each section to fill the whole screen. This is useful when you're looking at a longer list. Click it again to return to your previous view.

* Compose "+" - Click to create a code comment/issue, request feedback on changes, or to create a pull request.
* [Activity Feed](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/activity-feed) - The Activity Feed will let you know about new code comments/issues and feedback requests, as well as replies to existing ones.
* [My Organization](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/myorganization) - See who is in your CodeStream organization, invite new members, and create blame maps.
* [Filter & Search](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/filter-and-search) - Filter & Search allows you to slice and dice your team’s collection of code comments/issues and feature requests however you see fit.
## The username menu [#username]

* **Integrations**: Connect CodeStream to the code host, issue, and messaging providers you use.
* **New Relic setup**: Connect your New Relic account to CodeStream to get the most out of New Relic CodeStream's observability tools.
* **Feedback**: Got feedback for us? Write a GitHub issue.
* **Help**: Links to documentation, our video library, keybindings, the CodeStream workflow, what's new, and reporting an issue.

## Header menu items [#header-menu]

<figcaption>The header menu items provide different options for creating and discovering content in your organization. From left to right: **Create**, **Activity feed**, **My organization**, and **Filter & search**.</figcaption>

* **+** (Compose) - Click to create a code comment/issue, request feedback on changes, or to create a pull request.
* [Activity feed](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/activity-feed) - The activity feed will let you know about new code comments/issues and feedback requests, as well as replies to existing ones.
* [My organization](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/myorganization) - See who is in your CodeStream organization, invite new members, and create blame maps.
* [Filter & search](/docs/codestream/codestream-ui-overview/filter-and-search) - Filter & search allows you to slice and dice your team’s collection of code comments/issues and feature requests however you see fit.

And lastly, at the top-left of the CodeStream pane, click on your username for
options related to [account settings](/docs/codestream/codestream-settings/account-settings), [notifications](/docs/codestream/codestream-integrations/notifications) and [organization
administration](/docs/codestream/codestream-settings/team-administration).
