Lightning page activation and assignment
Key Takeaway
Building a Lightning page in the Lightning App Builder does not show it to anyone. Activation publishes the page and decides who sees it.
When you activate a page, you can show it to the whole org, to certain Lightning apps, or to specific record types, profiles, and form factors (such as desktop or phone). Record pages, Home pages, and app pages each have their own activation options.
How to activate a page
You need the "Customize Application" permission to create and save Lightning pages.
- Open the page in the Lightning App Builder.
- If the page is new or you just changed it, click "Save" first.
- Click "Activation". If you just saved the page, click "Activate".
