Add customized tabs in the contextual side panel. Agents can use these tabs to view case information, add attachments, view recommendations, and perform other case-related actions.

## Before you begin

Role required: workspace_admin, ui_builder_admin, admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllNow Experience FrameworkUI Builder.
2. On the UI Builder home page, select the Page collections tab.
3. Select the desired page collection.  
   A [page collection](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=page-collections&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-application-development&ft:locale=en-US) is a group of pages that you can use in multiple experiences.
4. In the Pages and variants section, select the Create new page icon (+) to create a new page or add a variant to a page.
5. In the Set up your page details pop-up window, enter a name for the page and then select Continue.
6. Create a default page by entering a name for the variant and selecting Create.  
   The new page appears under the Pages and variants list.
7. Select the newly created page name.
8. Add a component to the page collection by selecting +Add component.  
   You can create a subpage that gets displayed in the contextual side panel.

## Result

The added component gets displayed on the UI. The location depends on where you want to create the custom content on the page.
