What is Navigation pane in D365?

The navigation pane provides access to workspaces, main menu elements, recently opened pages, and user-defined favorites. You can open the navigation pane by selecting the Show navigation pane button under the navigation bar.

The navigation pane consists of four collapsible sections.

• Favorites - This section provides quick access to the list of pages the user has explicitly marked as a favorite. Marking a page as a favorite is accomplished by clicking the star icon next to the page in the navigation pane. This can be helpful for areas of the system that are used frequently, or, conversely, areas of the system that are not used frequently but could benefit from being easily accessible when the need arises.

• Recent - This section is a list that is auto populated with links to the areas in the system that have been viewed most recently. This can be helpful for reference purposes, as well as easily switching back and forth between separate areas of the system.

• Workspaces - This is the set of workspaces a user has access to.

• Modules - This section provides the full list of modules. Clicking on a module will open the right side of the navigation pane, where you can navigate to a specific page in that module.
