Page index for the SharePoint intranet: What are the benefits?
Our web part is designed to gather the titles present on a SharePoint page into an automated index. By scrolling through the index, you can quickly see the topics covered in a news post, a company update, or a newsletter. Simply click on a title to jump to the corresponding content.

Simple configuration
Automatic detection of page headings
The In This Page web part automatically detects the section headings of a SharePoint Online page and displays them as a clickable index. It identifies Heading 2, Heading 3, and Heading 4 levels, building the table of contents without any manual setup. Clicking an item jumps the reader directly to the matching section, so people can move through long news posts, company updates, and documentation pages without scrolling through the entire content.
An index that stays in sync with your content
Because the web part reads the live structure of the page, the index updates automatically whenever the page changes. Editors who add, rename, or reorder headings do not need to maintain a separate list of links: the table of contents stays accurate on its own. This keeps lengthy procedures and frequently updated communications easy to navigate over time, reducing the maintenance burden on content authors across the SharePoint intranet.

Frequently asked questions
Which heading levels does the page index include?
The In This Page web part detects and lists Heading 2, Heading 3, and Heading 4 levels from the SharePoint page. These headings are gathered automatically into the index, so structuring your content with standard heading styles is all that is required for the table of contents to appear.
Does the index update when the page changes?
Yes. The index updates automatically whenever changes are made to the page. When you add, rename, or reorder headings, the table of contents reflects those changes without manual editing, ensuring the index always stays accurate and in sync with the page content.
How is the web part added to a SharePoint page?
In edit mode, click the plus button between web parts and search for the component, officially named IAI - InThisPage. Once added, open its properties panel to adjust the view settings, such as the background, shadow style, title, and whether heading levels are collapsed by default.
Can the appearance of the index be customized?
Yes. From the properties panel you can show or hide the background and shadow, select a shadow style of High Contrast, Light, or Dark, set a custom title or hide it, and choose to collapse all levels by default, letting the index match your page design.
