Network widgets

Widgets are an integration pattern that enable you to interact directly with Network data through the Network Portal or your internal application. To use widgets, administrators configure widget settings in their Network instance. You can add widget to applications to use in the Network Portal or Network provides the code that web developers can add to an internal application. Using single-sign on, your business users can interact directly with master data without logging into your Network instance.

Widgets are available as part of your Network license and can be used for an unlimited number of users and integrated systems.
