Dashboard Widgets are small custom applications that can be used to display graphs, reports, news, or any other useful information to your business.

The widgets will be located on your Dashboard in place of a mini graph.

Our example widget is shown below displaying content from Business Insider RSS Feeds using Google Feed API.

Dashboard Widgets have limited visible space on the Dashboard.

The size restriction for the widgets are as follows:

• Has maximum height of 200 pixels.
• Has no specific width limitation. The width is dependent on the screen resolution.

Dashboard widgets are JavaScript apps. You are allowed to use only JavaScript, HTML, Cascading Style Sheets and Image (png, jpeg, gif) file formats.
