## Where to Work in the Interface

Main work with requests happens in the `OperatorLine` module:
- **`OperatorLine` module**: `Apps -> OperatorLine` — here you process all client requests.
- **Chat list**: for navigating between requests.
- **Active chat**: for conducting a dialog with a client.
- **Details panel**: for viewing client and request information. The client card here is **the same** as in the [Clients module](/en/broadcastusers/operator-hub.md) (click pencil in client row).
