About This Webpart

Essentials Quick Links creates a visually consistent shortcut panel made from icon tiles/grid that point to the most-used links like intranet destinations, policy pages, help desk requests, team sites. The layout is optimized for fast recognition and mobile-friendly navigation.

Tiles are sourced from the central Links Admin catalogue, allowing administrators to manage the full shortcut set centrally while page authors select the most relevant subset for each page. Audience targeting and per-page filtering keep the experience focused, so users only see shortcuts that matter to their role.

Ideal for intranet homepages, department portals, and employee task hubs, Essentials Quick Links turns a scattered navigation menu into a compact visual launchpad for the resources employees use most.
