# Use panel Object Views Panel Object Views are embedded into applications across the Palantir platform to provide users with a consistent experience of object data across workflows. All object types have a [standard Object View](../standard-object-views/index.md) panel available by default, and you can build [configured panel Object Views](../config-panel-views/index.md) to display either an *object instance* or an *object set*. ## Panel Object Views in platform applications Panel object views can appear across Palantir platform applications, such as [Vertex](../../vertex/overview/index.md), [Map](../../map/overview/index.md), and Gaia. ### Object instance panels Object instance panels display a single instance of an object type and appear in an application's selection panel. Panel object view embedded in Vertex. Panel object view embedded in Maps. Panel object view embedded in Gaia. ### Object set panels Object set panels display an aggregated view of multiple instances of a single object type. They appear in applications when you select an object set comprised of several instances of the same object type. Object set view panel embedded in Gaia, Maps, and Vertex. ## Panels in Workshop applications Panels can be used in custom Workshop applications to provide a compact view of object data. To enable this, use Workshop's [Object View widget](../../workshop/widgets-object-view/index.md), configured to show the panel form factor.
