Portal
The inorigo® Portal is a landing page that gives inorigo® operators access to selected applications, data, and resources.
Overview
The inorigo Portal® provides an organized entry point to the workspace.
Key Features:
- Customizable Content: Tabs, content, and structure can be customized by an admin. This includes the categorization of apps and data, the ability to set icons, and a News/About page.
- Themable: The Portal’s theme, including the logo and background, can be customized to align with the client's brand. The theme will be inherited by inorigo® applications opened in the Portal.
- Personal & Contextual: The Portal surfaces the operator's recent applications and bookmarks, so they can pick up where they left off.
- Smart Search & Filter – The search and filter function lets users quickly find and navigate to content and apps.
Search
The search is located in the "Jumbotron" section of the Portal. When the page is scrolled up, the search field will be docked in the header so it is available.
The Search allows users to find any app or entity made available through the Portal's configuration. A query requires at least 3 characters. It is possible to filter by one or more categories directly in the search by first entering a forward slash "/" and selecting a category from the list.
Cards
Content is displayed as cards, which can represent an inorigo® application, an external URL, or an inorigo® entity. Cards for inorigo® entities are configured through Knowledge sets. When selected, a dialog opens with the entity’s details.
Portal Tabs
The Portal features a landing page with four tabs. The content and themes of these tabs are customizable, and they can be renamed according to the client's preferences.
My Collection
The My Collection tab contains a grid of cards for the user's items; they can be sorted by recent or bookmarked. To Bookmark an item, press the icon in the top right corner of the card. Recent items can be cleared from the […] menu.

Open in Portik
Portik is an inorigo® term for the frame or chrome that surrounds the content of the portal and application. This includes the logotype, title, toolbar, and icons.
This option is toggled On by default. A linked inorigo® application will open with the Portal's Portik, incluing its theme and logotype. inorigo® applications opened with Open in Portik will be limited to the basic toolbar icons: Automatic Calculation, Clear Selection and Update.
Note: that currently the icon color and icon's accent color is set by the workbench theme (configured in the workbench theme settings). For best result the workbench theme and portal theme should be matched.
When Open in Portik is toggled Off, a linked inorigo® application will instead be opened in the Workbench, with the workbench's theme and toolbar, including the inorigo® launcher menu and side panel. The functions/icons available for the application can be customized in the settings for the application (Application Builder).
Note: In order for an user to open an application in the workbench, the user must have the apppropiate rights.

Linking External Webpages
When open in Portik is toggled On, a link to an external webpage will open within the Portal's Portik, including the Portal's title, but the only available item in the toolbar will be the user menu icon. This option is useful when you want an external page to feel like it is embedded in the Portal, and it allows for navigating back to the portal by clicking the logotype.
When open in Portik is toggled Off, a link to an external webpage will open as normal.

Categories
Allows for customizing the appearence of the categories shown on the third tab of the Portal "Index".
These Categories works as filters for the list, and it is possible to select more than one.
Selected Background

Selected Text
Sets the text color of the selected category.
Force Colorless Icons
When toggled On, icons for the categories will appear monochrome. inorigo® will automatically set the icon as either white or black depending on the background color to ensure legibility.
Content
The Content tab allows you to set which entities users can interact with in the portal.
The content is configured through inorigo's® Knowledge Sets.
Applications
Applications added through the Application tab, will automatically available and categorized as Applications.
Note that this also includes links to external webpages.
Add Knowledge Set
The dropdown contains all availabe Knowledge Sets for the inorigo® instance. The portal will use the Data Type of the Knowledge set to determine the entity.
Example: To add all entites of the instance "Person" you must first create a Knowledge Set with the Data Type 'Instance' and a filter to find the entities with the Defintion Person.
Action Type
Default Window is the standard setting. When a user opens an entity/clicks a card it opens a dialog with the details about the entity. The Portal reads the underlying Knowledge set structure and sorts its fields into two categories: attributes (the properties of the entity, shown at the top of the dialog) and connections (related entity, shown as an expandable tree below).
In the knowledge set, the selected columns from the base query becomes the attributes.
Everything else becomes a connection. Fields named ID, presentation, or name are never shown directly. URLs, email addresses, and phone numbers are automatically turned into clickable links.
URL is a simpler mode. Instead of opening a detail view, clicking the card takes the user directly to an external page. This requires a field named URL to exist somewhere in the knowledge set. inorigo® finds it automatically and turns the whole card into a link.
Name
Sets the name of the category.
Description
A short description of the type of entity. This text will appear on the card of the entity.
Icon
It is mandatory to upload an icon for the entity type. This is show both on the cards and in the category under Index. The icon should ideally be 16x16px or a .svg.
