Create a Visitor Role

If you want to allow only a specific set of users to access certain desktops, look & feels, books, pages, or portlets, create a Visitor Entitlement role.

To create a Visitor Role:

1. In the Visitor Entitlements tool, select a portal Web application in the "Select Web Application" field. (Each Web application contains its own Visitor Entitlements.)
2. Select Visitor Roles in the resource tree.
3. Right-click Visitor Roles and select Create Role (or click Create Role in the toolbar).
4. In the dialog box that appears, enter the name of the new role, and click Create. The new role appears in the resource tree, and the Visitor Entitlements editor appears.
5. Define the rules for which users will be part of the role by adding users to the role, adding groups to the role, or defining the role with expressions.

After you create and define the Visitor Entitlement role, you can set the role on portal resources.

The new Visitor Role appears in the Resource tree.
