Browser Widgets

A Browser Widget displays a website or an HTML Page. Use a Browser Widget to display:

• Your company's website.
• A website that Users access often (a hardware troubleshooting site, a forum, etc.).
• A custom CSM-built HTML Page for an IT or HR department.

The following figure shows an example Browser Widget.

Good to know:

• A Browser Widget is highly configurable; define the website or HTML Page to display, and the refresh rate.

• Refresh executes only when a Widget is active and being displayed. If you leave a Dashboard and come back to it, the data will be automatically refreshed, and the refresh timer will start over.

• A Dashboard's Refresh properties determine whether or not to 1) use the Dashboard's scheduled refresh instead, and/or 2) allow its Widgets to refresh themselves in addition to the Dashboard's scheduled refresh. For more information, refer to Dashboard Refresh in the Dashboards documentation.
