# View & Edit
When you click **"View & Edit"** from the Dashboard, youβll be brought to this configuration screen β where you can review performance, make edits, and customize settings for each bot.
You can also **pause or activate your bot** directly from the dashboard using the on/off switch (π). This makes it easy to temporarily stop your strategy without needing to delete it.
