• Features

Click each of the following features to learn more about the key capabilities of Portal Integration Kit:

• Portlets  
  Covers the standard functionality of Enterprise Server. All portlets are based on a common architecture so they can share information with one another. The access rights of the logged-in user are always taken into account.
• Repository Access

Search results can be linked with other portlets like "Object Details," "Tree Navigation," and "List Container Contents."
