To access the Kentico administration interface: - Type **/Admin** after your site's domain into the browser address bar (for example _http://mysite.com/admin_)\    OR - Click the **Administration** link at the top of the sample Corporate site. A logon page appears where you need to enter a username and password. > **Info:** **Default user name and password** > > The default user name is **administrator**. The default password is **blank (no password)**. > > It is highly recommended to change the password before publishing the website to a live server. Once you log in, the Kentico administration interface opens. The interface is separated into _**applications**_. Each application represents a group of related functions. Applications allow you to perform various types of tasks, configure the system, and view information. The first page that you see after logging in is the _**application dashboard**_. The dashboard provides quick access to your most frequently used applications. Certain application tiles in Kentico work as _Live tiles_. This means that they provide information that may require the user's attention by displaying application data. ![The application dashboard for the default global administrator](https://docs.kentico.com/docsassets/k82tutorial/using-the-kentico-interface/App_Dashboard.png "The application dashboard for the default global administrator") #### Adding applications to the applications dashboard Each user in Kentico can individually configure the applications they see on their application dashboard. 1.
