As a Portal creator or curator you can share this page with your audience so they can use your Portals effectively to browse and share your content.
Portals are designed to be intuitive to use, but you can quickly learn how to use them in this guide:
The asset gallery shows all content available on the Portal.
If you click on an individual asset you enter the “Detail view” where you can see:
Full view of the asset: complete with
the preview controls to zoom in/out for
details
Asset metadata: Shows every available info on the asset
Variants: Shows the different formats of the asset available for download
Asset types may have different variants available for download on the Portal:
Audio asset |
Document asset |
Image asset |
Video asset |
"Small"

*Small, medium and large variants are downloadable preview images that are generated independently of the asset type. For example, If you download the medium variant of an audio, document or video asset, the preview image of this asset lands on your computer and can therefore not be browsed or played.
If you hover over an asset thumbnail and click the check mark that appears in the upper right corner, a selection bar appears and you enter selection mode:
Select or de-select individual assets: by clicking the thumbnail of any individual assets. The number of selected assets is shown on the selection bar.
Select a range of assets: by clicking the first asset you want to select, holding the Shift key, and clicking the last asset you want to select.
End selection mode: by clicking anywhere other than an asset thumbnail.
You can easily share the content that interests you.
The Portal URL adapts to search results when you use the search bar or filter via facets.
Sharing the URL after the results are displayed will enable anyone visiting the Portal through your link to see the exact results that you see.
A Content Template on a Portal allows you to create and download your own content using the elements the Portal creator provided.
The canvas is the main area of the editor where you can interact with pages and blocks of the Template.
Pages: Your content consists of pages that serve as the base for the design elements.
Blocks: Are the individual design elements on a page that you can configure.
