Same way as with configurations made in Page Designer, Navigator Configurations can be made either in a Global Context or in additional contexts. See Configuration Context for more information about the Configuration Context concept.
In the Navigator Configuration Overview page, all Navigator configurations are listed by Context. From here they can be added to Application Configuration Packages to take the navigator configurations between different environments.
See Translations in Configurations for information on how to add translations to configured items.
