Widgets display information and charts on dashboards. Many of them are configurable and display information available from one or more data stores or charts maintained within the system.
To add a widget to a dashboard or copy a widget from one dashboard to another, see Add a widget to a dashboard.
The following widgets are organized under the service they support. Widgets that derive their data from Analytics are annotated with Analytics.

Note
Widgets and multiple dashboards are not supported features in TFS 2013, instead, you can pin items to a team homepage. Consider upgrading to the latest TFS version to get access to the widget catalog and multiple team dashboards.

Hover over each color within the chart to see the count of items for a particular Kanban column.
Cycle time
Displays the cycle time of work items closed in a specified timeframe for a single team and backlog level. The cycle time of a work item is defined as the time taken to close a work item after work on it has started.
Each marker on the chart corresponds to one or more work items with a particular cycle time. The lower the cycle time, the faster work is progressing through your development pipeline. To learn more, see Configure a Burndown or Burnup widget.
Lead time
Displays the lead time of work items closed in a specified timeframe for a single team and backlog level. The lead time of a work item is defined as the time taken to close a work item after it was created.
