Browsing Bookmarks within a Portal This Use case is the Base Case for Bookmark functionality. General Bookmark attributes and procedures are detailed here.


The Collaborative Portal bookmarking model has one important distinction from browser bookmarking: In CW, Bookmarks can be shared. In a Collaborative Portal, the bookmark portlet is available for reading and use in most cases, by all participants. The ability to create a bookmark and have it appear within the bookmark portlet for a particular portal, is controlled by write privelage on the bookmark portlet.


A system user may have participant status in many different portals, including their own personal portal. When using a collaborative portal or an application associated with a collaborative portal, the bookmark portlet instanced by that portal only shows bookmarks associated with that portal. When a user is at his or her own personal portal, the Bookmark portlet can be configured to show just personal bookmarks, or import bookmarks as read/use only from collaborative portals that include the user as a member.
