Hey, you can press the shortcut Cmd + Shift + S or click on the sidebar icon at the top of the window.

Thx, as this is outside the sidebar, this is not straightforward to get from a UX standpoint

Thank you for the feedback and the report, we’ll work on improving this.

Thankfully found this post.. spent way too long trying to figure this out, definitely needs a more obvious way to close.
