Example of the Marketing Cloud components

The Marketing Cloud UI is made up of four distinct areas:

• The Sidebar (1).
• The Main window (2).
• The Information panel (3).
• The Options drop-down panel (4).

The Sidebar

The Sidebar normal view with Customers > Overview selected

The Sidebar enables you to directly access all the pages of each Marketing Cloud section. For example, when you click Customers, links to its Overview, Customers and Events and the Customer list pages display.

Note:
The sections that are active in the sidebar depend upon your permissions. Only the sections you have access to can be highlighted and clicked.

The Sidebar itself can be displayed in two formats:

• The normal view.
  Displays the segment names and their associated icons.
• The compact view.
  Only displays the segment icons.
  Hover your mouse over the appropriate segment icon to display links to its pages.
