Portal menu

Note

The menu is displayed if authentication is successful.

Categories and applications

Configuring the virtual hosts is not enough to display an application in applications menu. Indeed, a virtual host can serve several applications (http://vhost.example.com/appli1, http://vhost.example.com/appli2).

In Manager, you can configure categories and applications by using General Parameters > Portal > Menu > Categories and applications.

Application parameters:

  • Name: display text

  • Description

  • URI: URL of the application

  • Tooltip: information display on mouse over the button

  • Logo: file name to use as logo (Since 2.0.17 you can also use a Font Awesome icon code)

  • Display application:

    • Enabled: always displayed

    • Disabled: never displayed

    • Automatic: displayed only if the user can access it

    • Special rule: define a rule or “sp: <name>” where “name” is the key name of the service provider, the corresponding rule will be applied (available for CAS, SAML or OpenID-Connect)

Tip

Categories and applications are displayed in alphabetical order. Applications are displayed based on access rule only to propose the reauthentication mechanism. It means that authentication level is not taken into account. To hide applications depending on authentication level, you have to append an authentication level condition like this: $uid eq ‘dwho’ && $authenticationLevel == 5

Tip

The chosen logo file must be in portal applications logos directory (portal/htdocs/static/common/apps/). You can set a custom logo by setting the logo file name directly in the field, and copy the logo file in portal applications logos directory
