Organizing the contents of a portal
Help users increase productivity by populating your portal with tools that have the most relevance to user roles.
The portal in your application can include a mix of ready-to-use and custom components. For example, a portal for an HR Manager persona can include an out-of-the-box Dashboard page. You can then expand the portal further by adding a ready-made case status widget that provides quick insight into the number of pending applications. At the same time, you can set up a custom landing page that lists all the employees on the manager's team who are on leave in a given week, to help your other users plan their work with the resources they have at hand.
- Creating and managing pages for applications
Present additional resources to users by creating, configuring, and adding pages to menus in your application.
- Organizing the main navigation for a portal
Build a navigation menu that effectively organizes the content of your portal by adding pages to the menu and determining the available case types.
- Containers in portals
A portal is an interface through which users access documents, such as cases, dashboards, and pages. You use containers to arrange these items on the screen, and create a familiar work environment for your application.
- Adding the Pulse gadget to your application
Provide a collaboration tool for users of your application by adding the Pulse gadget to your application. By posting, viewing, and commenting on messages, users can work together to resolve cases faster.
