Overview
In today's interconnected world, collaboration is key to success. With that in mind, it is important for software and platforms to provide seamless communication. One such solution is the Partner App feature that enables users to easily transfer mashups, folders, and other content between different portals.
Partner Application allows users within different portals to share content with each other without being a member of the other portal which can greatly enhance collaboration and efficiency in shared projects. Partner Application would require both portal users to configure the partner app in their respective portals, allowing the other portal user to copy content in another Partner Agency’s portal.
Users can create a Partner App from the Portal Settings section of their application. From there, the Partner App can be configured on both portals to allow communication between them. To learn more about Partner App, see Understanding Partner App in VIDIZMO.
