Access points

1. Sign in to the Django admin and open the home dashboard.
2. Select User Data from the header shortcuts (the button routes to the admin:user_data view defined in locals/user_data/views.py).
3. The data list view renders the template locals/templates/admin/data_list.html, providing a searchable table of exported fixtures grouped by app and model.

Use the filter field at the top of the table to narrow the list by any fragment of the app name, model name, or entity label. The table updates instantly without a full page refresh.
