Overview

Use Widgets to add functionality to Pages, Spaces, and Dashboards. Each Widget provides a specific type of functionality; however, they can be broadly grouped into four categories:

• Widgets that display or enable the creation of content
• Widgets that assist with navigating to and finding content
• Widgets that display information specific to the viewer
• Widgets that add additional utility

Content Widgets

Content Widgets connect to Channels within a digital workplace. A common use of this type of widget is to aggregate and display the most recent content from multiple Channels. These Widgets do not change where the content is located and only act as windows into the connected Channels. Because of this, the displayed content still maintains the Access Rules applied to the underlying content. Users need at least Read level access to content to view it in a Widget.
