Is there a way to make page searchable without developer?

I can access the page via URL but I am not able to find that page in any menu options or by searching it in “tell me”. Is there a way to make page searchable without developer help/without any coding?

    Do you want to make it available for everyone or only yourself? What is the page name that I can check in my system

    You can bookmark a page without any coding. But to make it searchable for everyone you need to extend the pages application area definition in AL code.

    Hi, Unfortunately, there is no good way.

    For example, the Sales lines page. You can open this page from Customer list.

    But you can't search it directly or add it to Bookmark.

    This is related to ApplicationArea Property. But the property 'ApplicationArea' cannot be customized. So if you develop, you can create a Menu to open these pages.
