You have a few options for activating a Lightning record page as an
override.
Make the page the org default for the object.
After you activate the
Lightning page as the org default, the page is selected as the Lightning
Experience override for the View action in the Override Properties
panel.
Make the page the default object record page for specific Lightning
apps.
If you activate the Lightning record page for specific Lightning
apps only, the page takes precedence over the Lightning Experience
Override setting for the View action on the object in those
apps.
Assign the page to a combination of Lightning apps, record types, and
profiles.
To remove the Lightning page as an override, return to the Activation page in
the Lightning App Builder, select the type of override you want to remove, and
walk through the activation wizard.
Example In this Override Properties panel, the Lightning page
Account_Lightning_Page_Test is the specified Lightning
Experience override for the View action.
