The View widget is used to display a view from a specified app on your portal.
Having a view on your portal lets users immediately access certain records that need to be checked or processed.

The view widget is commonly used to:

  • List inquiries that are currently being processed.
  • Show all approval requests that are awaiting action so that none are overlooked.
  • Display important company-wide announcements, making it also easy to check past announcements.
