Field notes
Page view surfaces details such as editorial ownership, update dates, Welsh versions, and links that may not be apparent from the page itself. Estate view can filter an organisation’s search-index entries by content type before loading a full list. Map view exposes settings for shared destinations and external sites, and its page cautions that larger maps are slower and busier for the API.
