# Components - Airtable admin panel

| [**Plan availability**](https://airtable.com/pricing) | Enterprise Scale only |
| --- | --- |
| **Platform(s)** | Web/Browser, Mac app, and Windows app |
| **Related reading** | [Overview - Enterprise Admin Panel](/v1/docs/overview-enterprise-admin-panel) |

[Components](/docs/using-app-library-and-components-in-airtable) are standardized building blocks for apps in your organization. The admin panel’s “Components” page allows admins to view high-level information about their organization or org unit’s (Enterprise Hub only) component usage. It also provides a portal to create or manage development bases, transfer component ownership, and unpublish components from the org’s component library.

> [!CAUTION]
> Note
> 
> A setting in admin panel can prevent creation or publication of managed apps and components.
> 
> - When toggled on, anyone who has not been added to the allowlist will not be able to create or publish managed apps & components in this organization. Additionally, admins won't be able to select a base in the components feature dropdown menu in admin panel, unless they are added to the allowlist.
> - Additionally, note that if your organization uses the Enterprise Hub feature, then a super admin may have toggled off the ability for org unit admins to modify this setting at the org unit level.
> - If you don’t have admin/super admin permissions, then you’ll need to ask someone at your organization to adjust the setting or put you on the allowlist.
>   - To adjust this setting, click **Settings** in the left sidebar of your admin panel. Next, click the **Org resources** tab. Scroll to the “Apps & Components” section. Here, you will find the “Restrict managed app & component creation in this organization” setting.
>   - To add a user to the allowlist, click the “User allowlist” dropdown, enter the email address associated with the user’s Airtable account, and click **Allow**.

## Accessing the components page in admin panel

1. Open your [admin panel](https://airtable.com/admin).
2. Click**Components**.

## Navigating the components page

When you access the “Components” page you’ll see a layout similar to the image shown below:

![](https://cdn.airtable.document360.io/d0ee2ee4-3f78-47c7-b388-85e40be9fb89/Images/Documentation/admin_panel_components_page_info_2024.png)

You’ll be able to:

- Search for a component by it’s name
- Filter to show **All components**, only **Field** components, or only **Table** components.
- Click the **+ Publish a component** button to create and publish a new component in the builder hub
- Below these options you’ll see a list of all of the components associated with your org or org unit. Most of the column headers can be clicked to sort the list of components in ascending or descending order by the column of your choice.
  - **Component** - The name of the component
  - **Type** - The type of component created (“Field” or fields, “Table” or tables, or “Table and more” with more typically representing automations or interfaces)
  - **Owner** - The org user who currently owns the component
  - **Last published** - The last time the component was published (i.e. new updates were added in the development base)
  - **Audience** - The audience that is able to use / add the component ([Learn more here](https://support.airtable.com/docs/using-app-library-and-components-in-airtable#setting-a-managed-app-or-component's-audience))
  - **Times added** - The number of times the component has been added
  - **Org unit** - (Enterprise Hub only) The org unit where the component can be used

Clicking the **…** icon to the right of a component that is listed on the page will open a menu where you can:

- **Go to development base** - Navigate to the builder hub location containing the development base where this component is managed
- **View details** - Navigate to a more detailed view of information related to a specific component
- **Transfer ownership** - Covered in the “Transferring ownership of components” accordion below
- **Unpublish from library** - **CAUTION** Unpublishing will delete the component / development base. Any connected components will continue to exist, but the configuration of any managed fields, tables, automations, and interfaces that make up the component will continue to be locked unless they are converted to unmanaged. This action cannot be undone.

## Transferring ownership of components from admin panel

1. Navigate to the [admin panel](https://airtable.com/admin) for your organization.
2. Next, click on **Components**from the left side of the page.
3. Browse or search for the component that you want to transfer. You’ll see some helpful information listed so that you can identify the name, type, current owner, and other usage metadata related to the component.
4. Click the **…** icon to the right of the component that you want to transfer.
5. Click **Transfer ownership** in the menu that appears.
6. From the dropdown menu, choose the appropriate user to transfer ownership of the component.
7. Finally, click **Transfer**.

A few notes:

- Only members of the same org unit are eligible to become the new owner.
- The new owner will be added as a collaborator to the development base.
- The original owner will not be removed as a collaborator from the development base.
