# Assign Layouts for the Agent Console

After you create console layouts, assign which layouts users see in the Agent console on the console tab. A user’s profile determines which console layout is seen.

For example, if you want users to see list views of cases and contacts in the console, then you add both cases and contacts to a console layout, and then assign that console layout to the appropriate user profiles. A user can only view objects in the console's list view frame if those objects are added to the console layout to which their profile is assigned.")
