# Investigations starter pack The **Investigations Starter Pack** consists of a collection of pre-designed basic investigations that help you analyze IT environments. ## Problem Nexthink is a powerful platform, but getting started with investigations and writing NQL queries can be challenging. Nexthink users often rely on [Nexthink Assist](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/search-and-nexthink-assist/using-nexthink-assist#query-data-with-assist) to build investigation queries that analyze their environment effectively. However, common and recurring issues should be easily investigated without needing assistance or writing queries manually from scratch. ## Solution The **Investigations Starter Pack** provides a collection of pre-built investigations covering various metrics. These investigations, ranging from simple to advanced, allow you to address common questions and accelerate familiarity with NQL. You may deploy these investigations as-is, reuse them as investigation templates and modify them to create customized analyses. ## Benefits and Outcome By implementing the **Investigations Starter Pack**, you: * Leverage pre-built investigations or out-of-the-box solutions—customize and reuse library investigations as templates. * Simplify common troubleshooting and analysis tasks. * Accelerate your NQL proficiency by exploring the underlying queries. ### **Getting started with the Investigation starter pack** Configure and start using your packs by following these links: * ​[Usage guide: investigations](/platform/library-packs/it-operations/investigations-starter-pack/usage-guide-investigations-starter-pack.md)[ starter pack ](/platform/library-packs/it-operations/investigations-starter-pack/usage-guide-investigations-starter-pack.md)for standard users. * ​[Configuration guide: Getting started investigations ](/platform/library-packs/it-operations/investigations-starter-pack/configuration-guide-investigations-starter-pack.md)Only accessible to users with an administrator role. --- # 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.
