Custom Tab not showing in Salesforce Lightning navigation menu

Posted by Kumar on December 19, 2016 at 1:44 pm
Hi everyone,

I have a custom tab in my org which is available in classic and I can access it from the waffle icon in Lightning. But even when I add it to the navigation menu in lightning, it still doesn't show up in the navigation menu. Any help?

Thanks

Hi Kumar,

If the tab is set to Tab Off on any of the profiles that use the navigation menu, then the tab will not show up for any of them. It doesn't make logical sense, but I've tested it and sure enough. After changing each of the profiles included in the navigation menu to have the Tab On permission for the tab that wasn't showing up, the tab now appears.

Thanks
Kumar
