Granting shared database portlet access

Access privileges are granted for all shared database portlets of a given type (colors, fonts, images, JavaScripts, or UI templates). They cannot be granted on an individual shared database portlet.

You must have Manage shared database portlet access to grant access to another user or group.

Click the Provider tab in the Oracle Portal Navigator.
Scroll down the Name column to Shared database portlets.

Choose an access privilege in the list next to the grantee, either Manage or Create. The default value is Create.
Click Add. The user or group you entered in Grantee now appears in the Change Access list at the bottom of the page with the access privilege you granted.
(Optional) To modify an access privilege, choose a new privilege next to the user or group.

Click OK.

Notes:

By default, all users who are members of the DBA or PORTAL_DEVELOPER groups have Manage shared database portlet access privileges.
Because OID can include multiple containers that can use the same group names, the distinguished name (DN) is displayed next to any group that does not belong to the local Portal instance.
