Adding folder info viewer to page

A folder viewer displays the contents of a folder on a page. You can set a default report that will display when the folder viewer opens.

To add a folder viewer, in the Page Designer, from the Toolbox panel, drag a Folder Viewer component to the workspace, and configure its properties in the Properties panel.

Example

In our example, we’ll add a folder viewer to an existing page.

First, navigate to a Designer folder, select the portal page thumbnail and click the Edit link.

In the Page Designer, from the Toolbox panel, under the Integration category, drag a Folder Viewer component to the workspace.

Next, we configure the Folder Viewer.

In the Properties panel, in the Behavior section, select a report from the Default Report drop-down list.

Finally, save the page and close the Page Designer.

To view the page with the folder viewer, select the portal page thumbnail and select View > Preview Page in its Action menu.

The page displays with a folder viewer component and displays the selected report.
