Entity Switcher

On a page that shows a single record, the page title is a control rather than plain text. It carries a small chevron, and selecting it opens a searchable list of the other records of the same kind, so you can move from one to the next without going back to the table you came from.

Where It Appears

Page
The list holds
Shown beneath each name

View Individual User, on every tab

Every user in the tenant

User principal name

Every group in the tenant

Mail address

Every Intune managed device in the tenant

The user principal name recorded against the device

View App Registration, on both tabs

Every app registration in the tenant

Application (client) ID

Every enterprise application in the tenant

Application ID

Relationship Summary, on both tabs

Every GDAP relationship, across all your customers

The relationship name

On the GDAP relationship pages each entry is named for the customer rather than the relationship, matching the page header, with the relationship name on the second line. A relationship that has no customer recorded against it is listed as No Customer Set.

Using It

Selecting the title opens the list, ordered alphabetically by name. The box at the top filters as you type and matches on both lines of an entry, so a user can be found by display name or by user principal name. A tick marks the record you are already viewing.

Choosing a record loads it in place. You stay on the tab you were on, so moving from one user's Exchange settings to another's takes a single selection rather than a trip back through the users list, and the tenant you are working in does not change.

The list is fetched the first time you open it rather than with the page, so there can be a short pause on a large tenant while it loads. Opening it again is immediate for the next five minutes, after which the following opening fetches it afresh.

On Narrow Screens

On a phone the list opens as a sheet from the bottom of the screen, headed with the record type, and works the same way. See Mobile Layout.
