Design a page layout

Create new page layouts or modify existing layouts to allow your teams to easily consume information according to the themes and priorities of your business. Rearrange or hide tabs, panels, grids and specific attributes to prioritize the information that your team needs.
Create a new layout for a page or clone an existing layout. You can apply the following customizations to Data Marketplace pages:
Assign one or more layouts to users with specific roles, to users that are part of specific user groups, or to all users in your organization. If your users have multiple page layout options assigned to them, they can use the Switch Layout button to switch between the layouts to see a different presentation of information on each page. If they have a personal preference, they can also override the default layout and set a particular page layout as their personal default.
The following image shows how you can switch between the various layouts available on the Search page:
