# About Tiles

## Overview

**Tiles**are [**Page Components**](/v9/docs/page-control-glossary)****that are used to display dynamic and interactive content such as infographics, **Forms**, a running **Flows**, etc. Additionally. Tiles can be used as a method of interface and allows for additional opportunities to present brand identity and as way to tie together relevant elements in one location. **Tiles**can be added to any **Page**by dragging one into a **Page****Designer**workspace via the **Toolbox > TILES** category, The following document discusses the three primary **Tile**types; **Simple****Tiles**, **Form****Tiles**, and **Diagram****Tiles**; and provides insight into their functions and links to additional relevant documentation.

## [Simple Tiles](/v9/docs/simple-tiles)

A **Simple Tile** is the easiest type of **Tile**to configure and therefore the quickest way to display relevant data on a **Page**or **Dashboard**with background color and styling to achieve a user's desired aesthetic. A **Simple Tile** can also perform **Entity Actions**, navigate to the **Portal**, run a **Flow**, navigate a user to a defined URL, and more based on user configuration.
