The Dynamic Highlights Panel catches up with its classic counterpart in Winter '27: it can now include the native Follow button.
Where
In Lightning App Builder, in the properties pane of the Dynamic Highlights Panel component.
How
Select or deselect the Hide Follow/Unfollow Button property to control whether the button appears for users. When users follow a record, they receive updates in their feed for field changes, posts, tasks, and comments on that record.
Why
Orgs migrating record pages to the Dynamic Highlights Panel lost the Follow capability, which blocked adoption for teams that rely on record subscriptions for change awareness. This closes that parity gap so admins can modernize highlight panels without removing functionality.
