How To Close All Tabs In Salesforce

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to clear all workspace tabs in Salesforce for every new console session.

Quick summary

Closing all tabs in Salesforce is done by enabling the Clear workspace tabs setting inside App Manager, which automatically resets open tabs at the start of each new console session. This setting is managed through Salesforce Setup and applies per app, giving admins precise control over the console workspace experience.


Steps

  1. Head to the top right of Salesforce, click the Gear icon, and select Setup from the dropdown.
  2. In the Quick search bar, search for and select App Manager.
  3. Find the app you use, then select Edit from its options menu.
  4. Navigate to App Options in the left sidebar.
  5. Enable the checkbox labeled Clear workspace tabs for each new console session under App Personalisation Settings.
  6. Click Save to apply the changes.

📌 Why this matters

Uncontrolled open tabs in Salesforce's Service Console can clutter agents' workspaces, slow navigation, and reduce productivity during high-volume sessions. Enabling the Clear workspace tabs setting in App Manager ensures that every new console session starts with a clean slate, eliminating tab buildup without requiring manual intervention. This is a critical configuration for Salesforce admins managing support or sales teams who rely on the Lightning console for daily operations. By automating tab cleanup through App Personalisation Settings, teams maintain a consistent, distraction-free interface that improves agent focus and response times.
