Objective
This article shows you how to collapse the Twilio Console left sidebar to a narrow strip of icons to give a page more room, how to expand it again, and how to keep navigating while it is collapsed.
Product
Twilio Console
Environment
Twilio Console
Procedure
- In the Twilio Console, find the Collapse control at the bottom of the left sidebar.
- Select Collapse. The sidebar narrows to a strip of category icons. The Twilio logo, the help control, and the product switcher stay visible, and the account name button moves up into the top bar.
- To navigate while the sidebar is collapsed, point at a category icon. A panel opens beside it showing that category's name and its product groups. Select a group to expand it, then select the page you want.
- To expand the sidebar again, select Expand at the bottom of the sidebar. Category names reappear beside the icons.
Additional Information
- Your choice is remembered for your login, so the sidebar opens the same way the next time you sign in and on your next visit to the Console.
- On a narrow browser window the sidebar collapses on its own and the Collapse and Expand controls are hidden. Widen the window past roughly 1280 pixels and your previous choice is restored.
- Collapsing or expanding never changes the page you are on.
