To open the command bar press *Command + K* (Mac) or *Control + K* (Windows). From there you can search for actions by typing, use up/down arrows to navigate, and click *Enter* to select an action.

The command bar is context-aware so the options you will differ based on the page you are on. For example if you are on a client details page, the first set of actions will relate to the client you are viewing.
