# Starting your first Session

If you're a new user and want to explore the features of ENGAGE at your own pace, or are familiar with ENGAGE but just want to test a specific feature, you can create your own private Session.

1. Open the ENGAGE app, and then log in.
2. On the menu screen, select **Start Session**.
3. Select a Location.
4. Select **Just Me**. For instructions on how to create a shared Session, see [Sessions](/engage/sessions.md).

After the Location downloads, you are placed in your own private Session. See the following section for information about basic controls.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.engagevr.io/engage/getting-started/starting-your-first-session.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
