What can be done in the Widget Manager:

Note that you can only change or update the widgets that you created 

...

  1. Share/Disable Sharing of a widget with administrators with the same admin “Role” 
    Widgets may only be shared to other administrators who belongs to the same Admin Role. 

    An example of how role sharing works:
    Scenario: A system is set up with three different administrator roles
    Roles -Full Administrator
    -Project Manager
    -HR
    A "Project Manager" administrator creates and shares a widget. This widget will only be available to other Project Manager admins. The "Full Administrator" and "HR" admin will not see the shared widget for this case.
