Getting Started with ORIA Reasoner

Making ORIA Your Landing Page

You can have ORIA Reasoner open directly after you sign in, instead of the ARPIA home page.

• /?home=1 always opens the classic home page, regardless of your setting.

Tip: If you previously set ORIA as your default landing page, clicking the `🚀 again will disable this setting, bringing you back to the standard ARPIA home page upon login.

Next: Configure Your Session

Once you have a session open, move to The Session Workspace to understand what each panel does.
