Collect
Gather feedback on the hosted portal, with a widget, inside an embed, or from public guests.
Most teams start collecting feedback on the hosted portal, then add a widget or embed when they want Boarbs inside their product.
Choose a collection surface
| Guide | When to use it |
|---|---|
| Portal | Fastest no-code launch on your workspace subdomain |
| Widget | A floating Feedback button on any page |
| Embed | The full board inside your app with a server-created session |
| Guest feedback | Voting and comments from visitors who do not have an account |
The portal is the default public surface. Widget and embed reuse the same boards, posts, and guest rules.
To open the hosted portal as the same person already identified in the widget or embed, use Automatic Login.
