# Getting Started

Welcome to ChainArgos, the world's most powerful blockchain intelligence platform. Get started with exploring and analyzing blockchain transactions here.

Getting started with ChainArgos is easy, so don't be overwhelmed by the seemingly countless options available to you, they'll make more sense and can add much more value as you grow accustomed to using the platform.&#x20;

In this section, you'll learn about:&#x20;

1. [ChainArgos Landing Page](/documentation/getting-started/chainargos-launch-page.md)&#x20;
2. [Exploring Your First "Look" ](/documentation/getting-started/exploring-your-first-look.md)
3. [Customizing Your First "Look" ](https://app.gitbook.com/o/tOGhLKeMfWz52eOrPasV/s/Cgjz9nFZqIwynK1SO4gz/~/changes/134/getting-started/customizing-your-first-look)

## 1. Under the Hood

ChainArgos is compatible with Google Cloud's Looker, one of the best Business Intelligence tools available. &#x20;

While ChainArgos documentation guides you through specific configurations, more generic documentation on Looker can be found here:&#x20;

Google also provides a series of on-line free tutorial classes for those that prefer that approach:

## 2. The Basics

Terms such as "Looks" and "Dashboards" will be used throughout this documentation, here's the difference between "Looks" and "Dashboards."&#x20;

### 2.1 Looks

Looks are saved visualizations, single visualizations, created in the "Explore" section of ChainArgos and are used to understand and analyze data.&#x20;

Looks can be shared and reused in multiple other dashboard implementations.

### 2.2 Dashboards&#x20;

Dashboards are multiple Looks combined on a single page.&#x20;

Dashboards allow you to place multiple tables or graphs or Looks on one page, so that you can get a quick view of the related content. If you like, you can also make Dashboards interactive, for instance with dropdown selectors, so users can filter them down to the specific data they are interested in.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.chainargos.com/documentation/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
