Explanation
In Cisco FMC, dashboard widgets must be explicitly configured before they appear. The Correlations Events widget specifically requires that a Correlation Policy be created and active in FMC-without it, there is nothing for the widget to display and it will not render on the dashboard. Because the analyst can access other dashboards and widgets, the issue is not a role permission problem (which would block access broadly). If it were a permissions issue, the analyst would likely see an error or empty/grayed-out widget rather than it simply being absent. No API restriction specific to one widget would cause this behavior. The root cause is that the widget has not been set up because no correlation policy has been configured in FMC.
