Embedded into page layouts.

Visualforce pages can be incorporated into the rest of the user interface in several ways in Salesforce. Here are two common ways:

  1. Adding Visualforce pages to page layouts: Visualforce pages can be added to the page layouts of standard and custom objects. This allows users to see Visualforce pages within the context of the object they are viewing. To add a Visualforce page to a page layout, you can use the Page Layout Editor in the Salesforce setup menu. Once you have opened the page layout editor, you can drag and drop the Visualforce page component onto the page layout. You can then configure the component settings to specify which Visualforce page to display.

  2. Embedding Visualforce pages in Salesforce tabs: Visualforce pages can also be embedded in Salesforce tabs, allowing users to access the pages directly from the Salesforce interface. To embed a Visualforce page in a Salesforce tab, you can use the Custom Tabs option in the Salesforce setup menu. You will need to create a new custom tab and specify the Visualforce page you want to display in the tab. Once you have saved the custom tab, users will be able to access the Visualforce page by clicking on the tab in the Salesforce interface.

Overall, incorporating Visualforce pages into the Salesforce user interface can provide users with a more customized and streamlined experience, allowing them to access the information and functionality they need more easily.
