Canvas Reference

A canvas is a combination of one or more unique sections of content to be shown to users. When user's navigate your application, or take actions that require that new content is loaded, the JavaScript API takes care of loading the necessary canvas on the web page for you (see How It Works for more information).

A variety of options are available for you to choose a particular canvas to show on your web page and you can to adjust the layout, placement and composition of each canvas by manually loading it's content.
