The properties sidebar on the left side of a record displays certain properties and the record's values for those properties. Users with Account and Edit property settings permissions can customize which properties and sections appear by default in the sidebar for each object. Individual users can also customize their own About section to display additional properties beyond those included by default.
To further customize your records, learn how to select the properties displayed on record association cards and on records in board view. If your account has a Professional or Enterprise subscription, you can also set up default right sidebars.
