Visibility of portals
The visibility of portals for a user in the DAM depends on the portal's sharing settings. Refer to the sharing documentation for more details.
Visibility of assets within a portal
The visibility of assets within a portal is governed by the same rules as in the main DAM system. This means that users will only be able to view the assets they are authorized to see, even when accessing them through a portal.
For example, if a portal contains both assets a user is authorized to view and assets they do not have permission to view, the user will only see the assets they are permitted to access. This ensures that segmentation and access control are always maintained within the portal environment.

Searching for a Portal through the DAM
The DAM search functionality now includes portals in its results. If portals matching the search criteria are found, a dedicated section will display suggested portals for the user. This section can show up to 10 suggested portals, allowing the user to directly access a portal by clicking on it.
1️⃣ Click the Search Field or Select a Filter in the DAM Search
Result Display Rules
Priority based on title and description: For each search, the system checks if the titles or descriptions of existing portals contain the searched keywords or filters. If so, these portals are prioritized in the list of results.
Priority based on associated media: If the search returns media that belong to a portal, the portals containing the highest number of matching media are prioritized. This ensures that the most relevant portals for the user appear at the top of the list.
Excluding Specific Portals from Search
It is possible to exclude certain specific portals from the search results. Exclusion can be based on an existing field in the portal data model (for example, private portals are excluded by default). If a project wishes to offer users the option to specify, during portal creation, whether the portal should be indexed in the search or not, this is possible by creating a new field in the portal structure and modifying the search query accordingly.
