Portals

Purpose

The Portals page in the Admin Console allows you to manage environment-wide behaviors for portals.

Access

To access the Portals page, go to the Admin Console. Then, in the left navigation menu, under System, click Portals.

Settings

On the Portals page, you can choose whether to add a UUID to all portal URLs created in your environment. Adding UUIDs to portal URLs allows you to restrict access to portals that are intended for development and testing. Only users that you share the URL with will be able to easily find the portal, allowing you to test and develop your portals with a selective audience.

This setting is selected by default on all development and testing environments, but not selected for production environments. We recommend keeping the default selection for your environment.

When you deploy to a different environment, the portal automatically uses the URL settings for the new environment. For example, when you deploy a portal from a testing to a production environment, the portal in the testing environment will have a UUID but the portal in the production environment will not.

Below is a comparison of two portal URLs with and without UUIDs:

To preview your portal URL, check out Configurations in your portal object.
