+# Sparky - Inventory UI Service
+
+### _View & Inspect_ Overview
+
+_View & Inspect_ provides a graph based view of elements within AAI. A single entity is the entry point into each graph, and from that base element a graph is generated based off relationships.
+
+### Navigation to _View & Inspect_
+
+The _View & Inspect_ view can be reached by two means:
+
+1. Main navigation menu
+2. Selecting a search result related to an entity instance (e.g. an entity called readme-entity)
+
+### Using _View & Inspect_
+
+_View & Inspect_ is driven by using the search bar at the top of the UI to find and select entity instances. Once an instance has been slected, a request is proccessed in _Sparky's_ backend component that generates a graph representation of the selected entity. The graph data is returned to _View & Inspect_ and rendered on screen.
+
+#### Node Details
+
+Upon node selection, the selected graph node details will appear in a panel to the right of the graph titled, _Node Details_.
+
+### Interacting with the Graph
+
+The graph can be panned by clicking and holding empty space amongst the graph and moving the mouse. This will pan the entire graph.
+The graph can be zoomed in and out by using a mouse scroll wheel.
+Nodes in the graph can be select by clicking on them.
+Nodes in the graph can be moved by clicking, holding, and dragging them using the mouse. \ No newline at end of file
