Developing for Process Portal spaces (deprecated)

IBM® provides widgets in IBM Business Process Manager Advanced. In addition, you can create your own custom widgets and integrate them within Process Portal spaces to provide custom content for your business.

Overview of widgets (deprecated)
A widget is an application or dynamic content that can be placed into a page in a Process Portal space.
Migrating custom widgets
When you migrate IBM Business Process Manager to V8.5.5, you must migrate your custom widgets that are used in Process Portal spaces to the prerequisites, specifications, and formats of IBM Business Process Manager V8.5.5. Support for custom iWidgets is deprecated in V8.5.5.
Creating widgets (deprecated)
To create custom widgets, you create the files for the widgets, create a catalog file to register the widgets, and then package and deploy the widgets.
Opening temporary pages using code (deprecated)
You can code a widget to open a page from another Process Portal space as a temporarily visible page. The page can have data relevant to the current space.
Switching pages using code (deprecated)
You can make the Process Portal switch the page that a user can see.
