Overview of widgets, including methods for creating and adding widgets. Use widgets to analyze and display data in a dashboard or report in Cortex XSOAR.
Cortex XSOAR provides out-of-the-box system widgets, such as Late Incidents and Saved by Dbot (ROI Widget). You can edit these widgets when creating or editing a dashboard or report.
Note
Some content packs include a widget that tracks API rate limit errors. You can use this information for troubleshooting and to make decisions about indicator enrichment. From the Widgets Library, click + and choose SOAR Metrics from the dropdown. From the Operations tab, in the Sum field, select Total API Calls. In the Group by dropdown, select API Response Type. Note that this widget only displays data if there is an installed content pack that supports API rate limit information.
You can create custom widgets as follows and then add them to a dashboard or report as required.
