## Quick Actions
Cmd+K (Ctrl+K on Windows) is a keyboard shortcut to quickly navigate between different workspace, table, view, or a menu items. For example, if you want to quickly navigate to the "API Tokens" page, you can open Quick Actions menu using ⌘+K, type "Token" in the search box and press enter.
This shortcut is often referred to as "Command-K". It's a great way to save time when you're navigating around NocoDB.
