What is this widget in Service Portal?

[marloii]

Please help me identify what widget is this in Service Portal.

It has a tooltip of "Open Analytics Window" with a pie icon, located above the Performance Analyzer widget.

I need help identifying it so I can control its role access. 

Thank you very much.

Hi @marloii 

As per my understanding,  The button with the pie chart icon is not a standard Service Portal widget.

It is the User Experience Analytics Page Overlay.

Unlike typical portal components, this icon is not driven by a record in the sp_widget table. Instead, it is dynamically injected into the portal's DOM 

The platform natively restricts its visibility based on user roles. Standard portal users will never see this button.

It is strictly visible only to users who possess one of the following roles:

• admin

• analytics_admin

• ui_analytics_admin

If you want to disable it :

• Navigate to Service Portal > Portals (sp_portal.list).

• Open the record for your target portal.

• Click on 'View Analytics Settings' button
• And make it active false

Hope this helps! 😊 If it worked for you, please mark it as correct ✅ so others can benefit too.

Regarding the mentioned roles for the icon, is it possible to locate where it is defined?

I looked into the Script Includes and widgets, but it seems like this is a protected component. The configurations might be hidden in their internal files, so we probably can't change it directly
