_(Find the Unifi Controller service widget [here](../services/unifi-controller.md))_

You can display general connectivity status from your Unifi (Network) Controller. When authenticating you will want to use a local account that has at least read privileges.

An optional 'site' parameter can be supplied, if it is not the widget will use the default site for the controller.

_Note: If you enter e.g. incorrect credentials and receive an "API Error", you may need to recreate the container to clear the cache._
