Dashboards can be customized to create a workspace designed just for you. For example, you can build a dashboard that is project, task, or role focused. If you select Dashboard, your default view will go to your most recently used dashboard. For more information, see Create and share dashboards in the Azure portal.

When the portal menu is in Flyout mode, it's hidden until you need it. Select the menu icon to open or close the menu.
If you choose Docked mode for the portal menu, it's always visible. You can collapse the menu to provide more working space.
The theme that you choose affects the background and font colors that appear in the Azure portal. You can select from one of four preset color themes. Select each thumbnail to find the theme that best suits you.
Alternatively, you can choose one of the high-contrast themes. The high contrast themes make the Azure portal easier to read for people who have a visual impairment; they override all other theme selections.
Notifications are system messages related to your current session. They provide information like your current credit balance, when resources you just created become available, or confirm your last action, for example. When pop-up notifications are turned on, the messages briefly display in the top corner of your screen.
To enable or disable pop-up notifications, select or clear Enable pop-up notifications.
To read all notifications received during your current session, select Notifications from the global header.
If you want to read notifications from previous sessions, look for events in the Activity log. For more information, see View the Activity log.
The inactivity timeout setting helps to protect resources from unauthorized access if you forget to secure your workstation. After you've been idle for a while, you're automatically signed out of your Azure portal session. As an individual, you can change the timeout setting for yourself. If you're an admin, you can set it at the directory level for all your users in the directory.
Select the drop-down under Sign me out when inactive. Choose the duration after which your Azure portal session is signed out if you're idle.
The change is saved automatically. If you're idle, your Azure portal session will sign out after the duration you set.
If your admin has enabled an inactivity timeout policy, you can still set your own, as long as it's less than the directory-level setting. Select Override the directory inactivity timeout policy, then set a time interval.
Admins in the Global Administrator role can enforce the maximum idle time before a session is signed out. The inactivity timeout setting applies at the directory level. The setting takes effect for new sessions. It won't apply immediately to any users who are already signed in. For more information about directories, see Active Directory Domain Services Overview.
If you're a Global Administrator, and you want to enforce an idle timeout setting for all users of the Azure portal, follow these steps:
Select the link text Configure directory level timeout.
On the Configure directory level inactivity timeout page, select Enable directory level idle timeout for the Azure portal to turn on the setting.
Next, enter the Hours and Minutes for the maximum time that a user can be idle before their session is automatically signed out.
Select Apply.
To confirm that the inactivity timeout policy is set correctly, select Notifications from the global page header. Verify that a success notification is listed.

There are two settings that control how the text in the Azure portal appears:
The Language setting controls the language you see for text in the Azure portal.
Regional format controls the way dates, time, numbers, and currency are shown.
To change the language that is used in the Azure portal, use the drop-down to select from the list of available languages.
The regional format selection changes to display regional options for only the language you selected. To change that automatic selection, use the drop-down to choose the regional format you want.
For example, if you select English as your language, and then select United States as the regional format, currency is shown in U.S. dollars. If you select English as the language and then select Europe as the regional format, currency is shown in euros.
Select Apply to update your language and regional format settings.
Note
These language and regional settings affect only the Azure portal. Documentation links that open in a new tab or window use your browser's language settings to determine the language to display.
