 - `widget-action` - When a user interacts with a widget, and state of the widget is not important, e.g. a button click
 - `widget-send` - Used by `ui-template` to send a custom `msg` object, e.g. `send(msg)`, which will be stored in the server-side data store.
 
+#### Syncing Widgets
+
+The `widget-change` event is used to emit input from the server, and represents a change of state for that widget, e.g. a switch can be on/off by a user clicking it. In this case, if you have multiple clients connected to the same Node-RED instance, Dashboard will ensure that clients are in-sync when values change.

+For Example if you move a slider on one instance of the Dashboard, all sliders connected will also auto-update.
+
+To disable this "single source of truth" design pattern, you can check the widget type in the ["Client Data"](../../user/multi-tenancy#configuring-client-data) tab of the Dashboard settings.
