| **Node Type**     | <p>Each site node can either be a <strong>Page</strong> or <strong>Label.</strong><br><br>A label is used for grouping site nodes where each child site node can either be a label or a page.</p>                                                                                                                                                                                              |                                                                                          |
| **Page Type**     | A Page can be of two types - **Internal** or **External**. **Internal pages** can be designed using Site Builder's built in page designer. On the other hand **external pages** are consumed from a micro app. External pages are coded by the developers and suitable for those requirements where a page is very complex and so can't be designed using built-in page designer.              |                                                                                          |
| **External Page** | <p>A vuejs component which is loaded from the micro app and which can be used to code any complex page which can't be designed using page designer. <br><br>Must be registered under the (unmanaged) parent team of this site node or under the parent team of this site node's (managed) parent team.</p><p></p><p><strong>This will be visible only when page type is External.</strong></p> |                                                                                          |
