The launchpad allows for shortcuts or quick links to both internal and external locations, providing easy access to relevant tools and information. Admins have the ability to create and manage platform-wide or user group-wide links. Additionally, you can allow users to create their own personal links. Users also have the option to mark links as favorites, which will then be displayed in the quick launchpad for convenient access.
