Page Layout

Configuration controlling the arrangement of fields, sections, related lists and buttons on a record detail and edit page.

Definition

Page layouts are assigned by the combination of profile and record type. They can make fields read-only or required on the layout, but field-level security always takes precedence for access. In Lightning Experience the record details component renders the page layout unless Dynamic Forms is used.

Exam tip

Removing a field from a layout hides it in the UI but not from reports, list views or the API; use field-level security.
