Manage Providers for Mashups, Mashables and Apps
Providers identify the organizations that provide mashable information sources, mashups or apps in MashZone NextGen. Users can search for artifacts based on providers. Provider information also helps users determine if an artifact is one they trust or are interested in using.
If you have installed sample mashables or mashups provided with MashZone NextGen, providers are defined for these sample artifacts.
In addition to defining providers for partners or other organizations that provide source information, it is a best practice to define at least one provider for your own organization so that users may assign this to artifacts as they create them. It may be more useful to define providers for the different departments or groups in your organization to enable finer grained information.
