Use Assignments in the left hand navigation bar of the Horizon Universal Console to navigate to various pages in which you can get an overview or detailed view of all the assignments currently configured in your Horizon Cloud environment. You can view the details of individual assignments by clicking the respective assignment. For some assignment types, you can click on the assignment's hyperlink name to navigate to where you can perform actions on the individual assets used in that assignment.

Tip: The console is dynamic and reflects the workflows and settings that are appropriate for the up-to-the-moment situation in your Horizon Cloud tenant environment. The labels displayed for the console's assignment-related pages will vary depending on factors such as the tenant's configured brokering setting, the types of cloud-connected pods in your fleet, the tenant's regional cloud plane, and features that are based on specific licensing.
