- Click Portal Permissions in the Gadgets menu as shown below.
- In the Manage Portal Permissions screen, uncheck the relevant check box to revoke a permission as shown below. You have options to allow users to self-register and to add external gadgets to the gadget portal. For more information on these options, see the sections below.
- Click Update.
Allow user self registration
Currently this option does not function as explained below in WSO2 BAM 2.5.0. This issue will be fixed in future versions.
If a portal administrator unchecks this option, anonymous users are not able to register to the gadget portal. Thereby, when you access the gadget portal in your web browser the user Sign-in button, which is shown below will not appear in the sign-in screen. If anonymous users need to register, a portal administrator should add them as users and assign appropriate permissions. For instructions, on registering users, see User Management.
Allow users to add external gadgets
If a portal administrator unchecks this option, users are not able to add gadgets to the portal using a URL. Thereby, when you click View Portal in the WSO2 BAM management console, and click Add Gadgets, the Add gadget from URL option, which is shown below will not appear in the portal.
