Selecting a Navigation Collection Data Source

Access the Select Data Source page. (Select PeopleTools, and then Portal, and then Pagelet Wizard, and then Pagelet Wizard. On the Specify Pagelet Information page, click the Next button.)

Select Navigation Collection in the Data Type field.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Select Data Source page for a navigation collection data source. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Select Data Source page - Navigation collection

The navigation collection that you use as the data source must already have been created using the navigation collections pages. However, the navigation collection does not need to exist in its final form. Any changes that you make to the underlying navigation collection used as the data source are immediately reflected on any pagelets created from that navigation collection.

Note:

Although you can create a navigation collection pagelet directly from the navigation collections component, pagelets created using this component cannot be maintained in Pagelet Wizard. Only navigation collection pagelets created specifically with Pagelet Wizard can be maintained in Pagelet Wizard.

See Understanding Navigation Collections.
