# Applications

The **Applications** page provides a top-level overview of all your cluster **Applications** and provides links to take actions for each. When a cluster is selected, this page displays your backup and restore options available for all **Namespaces** within the selected cluster.

## Accessing Applications

1. Log in to the T4K **Management Console**.
2. From the left panel menu, click **Backup & Recovery**.
3. Select one of your clusters from the left panel menu, which displays a dropdown menu for you to select from.
4. From this dropdown menu, select **Applications**.
5. From the page displayed, choose what you want to configure or action. Refer to the following image and descriptions in the associated table.

## Applications Overview

Applications can be of the following types: **Labels**, **Helm & Operator,** or **Objects**. On the **Applications** page, these three types are arranged in separate tabs.

{% hint style="info" %}
Below is an overview of the **Helm & Operator** tab only. The other two tabs are not detailed as they are almost identical, with the exception of a couple of column headings and the filtering options. The **Actions** and **Bulk Actions** are identical for all three tabs.
