4 Configuring Widgets

Widgets modularize functionality and content to provide a responsive layout and configuration capabilities for your web portal. Widget configuration is composed of two areas:

• Configuring Widget Behavior: Widget behavior includes various concepts that impact the user experience for a widget. This can include simple behavior such as showing or hiding certain parts of a widget to more complex behavior such as whether customers have the option to select the bill considered for their bill comparison.
• Configuring Widget Messages: Widget messages are the text elements that appear in a widget. This includes the headings, labels, insight message, long form text, and all other text elements displayed to customers that are interacting with a widget.
