# Bookmark the current view in the Management Client

You can create a bookmark for the currently active tab and other window-level elements in the configuration you select.

##

Some view-specific options are stored in bookmarks. For example, the:

- Currently active filter in the Logs view.
- Type of elements that are listed in a Configuration view at the time the bookmark is created.

Bookmarking is a main window action, so the properties dialog boxes for the various elements are never included in the bookmark.
