You create catalogs in Web Studio. A catalog contains portlets grouped in user-specified branches. You can arrange portlets into different branches and subbranches within a catalog for sorting and organization.
Although you can create an unlimited number of catalogs, you can display only one catalog per resource in Portal Interface. The catalog that is downloaded to Portal Interface—the display catalog—is the only catalog in Web Studio with an approved status and marked as active.

When portal users select Add Portlets in Portal Interface, they can browse through the catalog and add portlets of their choosing to their personal pages and page groups. Users cannot add portlets to predefined or default pages or page groups.
A catalog can contain portlets associated with any role. In Portal Interface, a user sees only the portlets that have access roles assigned to the user.
