# Get started with the Navigation API

The Navigation API allows you to navigate within a Qlik Sense app, and is meant
to be used in visualization extensions. It will not work in mashup scenarios.

The Navigation API can be used when creating navigation button widgets.

```html
<div class="lui-buttongroup">
  <lui-button ng-click="navigation.nextSheet()">Next sheet</lui-button>
  <lui-button ng-click="navigation.prevSheet()">Previous sheet</lui-button>
  <lui-button ng-click="navigation.setMode('edit')">Edit mode</lui-button>
</div>
```
