Asset layout widgets

Important This feature is available only in the latest UI.

Asset layout widgets enable you to show custom content on all the asset pages of a given asset type. For example, if you want to show Catalog elements on the asset pages of the Column asset type, you can achieve this using widgets. As an administrator, you can add widgets to the asset pages of a given asset type or reposition them when you edit the asset page layout for that asset type.

Note Widgets are predefined, meaning that you can't create new ones or delete existing ones. However, you can add and reposition them as needed. To add a widget, drag it from the left pane to the layout. To reposition it within the layout, use
