Tabs is a block that allows you to organize content into multiple sections within a single document. It's like a set of tabs that you can click on to reveal different information. Think of it as a way to create multiple pages within one page.

## Why to use it

- **Organize complex content**
  Group related content into separate tabs for better structure and readability.
- **Improve readability**
  Make your content easier to navigate and understand.
- **Save space**
  Use eficiently the space by displaying content sequentially rather than all at once.
- **Create interactive experiences**
  Engage users by allowing them to actively choose the information they want to see.

Also, most of our integrations work inside tab block. You can add embeds from other tools like Loom, Figma, Miro, Lucidcharts, and more.

## Markdown

Here's how to create a tab in your document using markdown code:

:::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Start with the `:::tabs` line.
:::

::::WorkflowBlockItem
Each tab content goes between `:::tab` and `:::` markers.

:::hint{type="warning"}
**🚨   Attention!**

A colon `:` should be placed in a parent markdown element to signify that it encloses another markdown element.
:::

In this case, `:::tabs` will change to `::::tabs` .

Give each tab a title with curly braces like `{title="Your Section Name"}`. This is the name that will show on the tab header.
::::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Put the content you want in this tab between those lines. See above the allowed blocks to be used inside the tab block. Check [Use Markdown shortcuts](<././Use Markdown shortcuts.md>) page to see how to use other blocks using markdown.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Create as many tabs you want and close your tab block. Don't forget to add columns for each nested level.

Below is an example of a tab block using markdown.
:::
:::::

```markdown
## Tabs

:::::tabs
::::tab{title="Tab 1"}
Some content for Tab 1

:::hint{style="info"}

```

Here is the result:

:::::Tabs
::::Tab{title="Tab 1"}

Alternatively, use this flavour of Markdown to generate a tabs block.

```markdown
:::::tabs
::::tab{title="tab 2"}
some tab fasdfasdfasdfasdfads 
::::
::::tab{title="tab 2"}
some tab fasdfasdfasdfasdfads 
::::
::::tab{title="tab 2"}
some tab fasdfasdfasdfasdfads 
::::
::::tab{title="tab 2"}
some tab fasdfasdfasdfasdfads
::::
:::::
```
