  • Items to action widget
  • Recent activity widget
  • New documents widget

Widgets that are added to your project from the widget library can be seen by your project team only (i.e. contacts from outside of your organisation collaborating on your project will not be able to see these).

Follow the steps below to add widgets from the widget library to your project.

Step 1: Go to your widget library

Navigate to your project dashboard and click the WIDGET LIBRARY button.
