When you add a modern page to a site, you add and customize web parts, which are the building blocks of your page. This article focuses on the Page properties web part.

Properties are details that provide information and help describe your page, such as title, date, content type, or custom properties that you set by adding columns to your pages library.

You can add properties of your page to your page to provide users with more information.
