What is a Widget in Dashboard Builder tool?

Updated yesterday

A Widget allows you to source companies based on an underlying query and view them on a single board. Dashboards typically consist of multiple widgets, with each widget corresponding to a distinct query.

You can create a query for a Widget using:

  • A Custom Tracxn Query URL (e.g., Unicorns based in India)

  • Importing from a Saved Search (e.g., specify the name of a saved search)
