Why create navigation layouts?

Navigation layouts allow administrators to create tailored navigation experiences and apply them to permission sets, ensuring each role in your organization easily sees the features most relevant to them. This is especially useful for organizations where different roles have varying workflows, helping users stay focused, work more efficiently, and spend less time looking for what they need.

For example, managers and field workers have different responsibilities, so rather than navigating through the same set of features, administrators can create layouts tailored to each role, giving every team a streamlined experience built around the way they work.
