Virtual Folder and partner portal integration
User works with partner portal and within the task definition he could use West-life functionality with these strategies:
- redirect to West-life portal to do some subsequent task - file picking, dataset viewing, ..., the UI is hosted at West-life portal, then user is redirected back to the referrer portal
- filepicker demo is using first strategy - it creates a popup window of a browser and listens for message containing the url from the popup window.
- West-life web UI component is embedded in partner portal web UI, the UI is hosted by partner portal, communicates via REST API with West-life portal, no redirection is done.
- there is issue with vendor-bundle.js. It expects the backend API to be available at the same host. Being solved [[1]]
- there might be some incompatibilities between partner portal libraries and VF libraries. This is partly addressed by current VF bundles, which are as independent as possible.
