Headless CMS

Content, URL rewrites and cookie consent.

Headless CMS homepage is the entry point to content management screens in the console. This page does not contain counters, charts, or summaries generated from your data; it consists of an introductory section explaining what the product does and its scope. For daily tasks such as store menus, URL rewrites, translations, storefront sorting, and cookie consent, you use the screens in the left menu. The page is intended to quickly show e-commerce and content teams responsible for storefront content what the CMS covers.

Accessing the screen

  • In the left menu, go to Headless CMS › Overview. When you are in any CMS screen, clicking the Headless CMS name at the top of the left menu also brings you to this page.
  • Clicking the products icon (All products) in the top bar opens the Items window. In the All products tab, clicking the Headless CMS name opens this page. Under the product name, shortcuts to frequently used CMS screens (Store menus, URL rewrites, Localization) are available; these take you directly to the related screen. Shortcuts to screens you do not have permission for are not shown.

If you do not see it in the menu, your account does not have permission for this screen.

Actions

Opening a CMS screen

  1. Select the screen from the list under Headless CMS in the left menu.
  2. Screens with group headings (Storefront, Cookie consent) appear under their respective headings.

Screens open in the same tab. You can add frequently used screens to your favorites by clicking the star that appears to the right when hovering over them in the left menu, then open them from the Favorites tab in the Items window. Recently opened screens are listed in the Recently visited tab in the same window.

Common situations

There are no numbers or charts on the page. This is expected behavior. The CMS overview page is not a dashboard but a product introduction page. Information related to your content is found in the relevant screens.

I cannot find a screen for a capability described in the introduction. The introduction covers the entire CMS product; not all capabilities have a separate screen in the console. Manageable parts are listed in the table above.

A CMS screen I expect is missing from the menu. Your account does not have permission for that screen. Contact your system administrator for access.
