Note

This topic is for CMS administrators and developers with administrative access rights. Access to Settings requires membership in the Content Admins group or an equivalent Opti ID role.

The Settings panel in Optimizely CMS 13 groups the administrative tools that control how the platform runs. Administrators use it to govern access, schedule jobs, configure content structures, and move data between environments. The links in this article open each feature area covered under Settings.

Many Settings tools act on the structure that content types and properties define. Examples include Edit Tabs, Convert Pages, and the content import and export tools. New administrators benefit from reading Content types and Configure properties before using these tools.
