About embedded page widgets

You can embed a page from an external website as a widget on a dashboard.
You may want to display important information from external systems (for example, a currency rate or a document from external cloud storage) in Visma Net to provide yourself and your colleagues (if they also use the dashboard) with consolidated information on one page.

When adding a page, you need to specify a link to the external page. Please note that a valid URL looks like this: https://www.visma.com.

You also have the option to add dashboard parameters to the link. By choosing to use the parameters, the system will add these to the source URL as query parameters. In this way the widget can be used to filter and customise the information displayed e.g. customer, project, and branch information. The following is an example: param1=param1Value&param2=param2Value.

The widget contains the standard toolbar, which is described in The widget toolbar.

By using an embedded page widget, you can open the source web page and update the widget view.
With some cloud storage providers, you can modify views of documents in the application where they are displayed.

For the step-by-step procedure on how to add a web page to a dashboard, see: Add an embedded page widget.
