FAQ

What should I check if a widget is not populating the data as expected?

Please check if the selected location is correct. When a widget is created from certain templates (e.g., Activity Stream), it's not possible to edit the location. In such cases, please try recreating the widget with the required folder/project/space selected as the data source.
