Page Components. Page developers use this portlet to display the contents of a My webMethods Server folder. The portlet displays each item within the folder as a tab. Additionally, the portlet displays the contents of the item associated with the selected tab.
For example, if the Tabs View portlet is configured to display "folder.admin.dashboard.portal_analysis" (i.e., the Analysis folder of the Administration Dashboard), the Tabs View portlet would display three tabs, one for each item in the Analysis folder: Logging Configuration, Logging Viewer, and Session Monitor. When a tab is selected, for example, the Logging Configuration tab, the portlet would display the Logging Configuration portlet.
