Chapter 8: Building Catalogs

Overview

You create catalogs in Mobile Web Studio. A catalog contains applications grouped in user-specified branches. You can arrange applications into different branches and subbranches within a catalog for sorting and organization.

NoteCatalogs are for use with Portal Interface and do not display on mobile devices.

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 Mobile Web Studio with an approved status and marked as active.

When portal users select Add Applications in Portal Interface, they can browse through the catalog and add applications of their choosing to their personal pages and page groups. Users cannot add applications to predefined or default pages or page groups.

A catalog can contain applications associated with any role. In Portal Interface, a user sees only the applications that have access roles assigned to the user.
