# Views

Configure IKO Servers and Views to connect to backend data sources and define how data is presented.

## Overview

A View represents a type of integrated view, for example "Customer (BRP)", "Object", or "Building". Before creating Views, an IKO Server must be configured. Multiple Views can be configured per IKO Server.

## Configuration

### Adding an IKO Server

1. Navigate to **Admin** → **IKO**.
2. Click **Add IKO Server**.
3. Configure the server properties.
