Publishing a Soffit

Follow these steps to view your soffit in uPortal.

In the Portlet Manager

1. Select Register New Portlet
2. Choose Portlet in the list of types and click Continue
3. Select /uPortal and Soffit Connector in the Summary Information screen and click Continue
4. Enter portlet metadata normally (e.g. name, tile, fname, groups, categories, lifecycle state, etc.)
5. Under Portlet Preferences, override the value of org.apereo.portal.soffit.connector.SoffitConnectorController.serviceUrl with the URL of your soffit, e.g. http://localhost:8090/soffit/my-soffit running independently (outside Tomcat) or http://localhost:8080/my-porject/soffit/my-soffit running inside Tomcat
