Add Attribute

Every portal includes built-in attributes such as name, description, date created, icon, and so on. In addition to these built-in attributes, you can add custom attributes that are unique to the portal and its characteristics to specify additional portal information (metadata). Custom attributes are propagated throughout the portal.

In addition to portal-specific attributes, system administrators can add and manage global attributes in WebCenter Portal Administration. Global attributes are available for use by any portal.

A custom attribute is simply a name value pair (such as customerId=400, orderId=11, or userName=Smith).
