Orbit AI settings

Use Settings → Orbit AI to open Help & support and choose whether the floating Orbit help button appears while you work.

Settings → Orbit AI is where you choose how Orbit offers help while you work in Spacebrain. Use it to open the Help & support panel or to show or hide the floating Orbit help button. These settings are personal, so they only affect you.

Before you begin

  • Any signed-in user can open this page. You don't need an admin role.
  • The setting is saved for your account in this browser. If you use another browser or device, set it there too.
  • This page doesn't change how Orbit answers questions about your workspace, or what AI Copilot does for your customers. For those, see Orbit, your AI assistant and AI Copilot.

Open Orbit AI settings

  1. Select Settings at the bottom of the sidebar. On a phone, open the menu first.
  2. In the Settings list, select Orbit AI.

What you should see: a page titled Orbit AI with the note Choose how Orbit helps you while you work in Spacebrain. It has one card, Your Orbit assistant.

Open Help & support

Select Open Help & support. The Help & support panel opens with these tabs:

  • Get Help: ask a question in your own words. Orbit looks for relevant guides and writes an answer. When you're on a page it recognizes, you can select Use … page context so the answer fits the page you're on.

  • Contact: send our team a note. Choose Contact support, Report a bug or Share an idea. If you've been chatting with Help, you can select Send conversation to support so you don't have to repeat yourself.

  • My requests: replies from our team. A number, such as My requests (1), shows when there's something new to read.

The bottom of the panel also links to the Help Center and to Email support.

Show or hide the floating help button

The floating Orbit help button sits in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Its tooltip says Help & support, and it opens the same panel. Now and then it may show a small Need help? bubble, which you can dismiss.

  1. Open Settings → Orbit AI.
  2. Turn Show floating Orbit help button on or off.

What you should see: the change applies straight away. The note under the switch reads Saved for your account in this browser. Help is always available here. Even with the button hidden, you can always come back to this page and select Open Help & support.

FAQ

Does hiding the button turn off Orbit?

No. It only hides the floating help button. Orbit is still available from Home, Ask Spacebrain and records.

Do these settings affect my teammates?

No. They only apply to you, in the browser where you changed them.

Where did the Orbit settings in General go?

Orbit's help settings now have their own page, Settings → Orbit AI. Your profile, preferences and sign-in options stay in Settings → General.
