You can search for pagelets or tiles in other databases (remote content provider nodes) only after unified navigation has been configured. When you select a remote pagelet on the Pagelet Search page or a remote tile on the Tile Search page, you import the pagelet or tile definition into the local database. This imported definition is then available to all features that use pagelets or tiles, such as homepages, dashboards, WorkCenters, and so on.
