Administration. Administrators use this portlet to set up an unlimited number of webspaces for the My webMethods Server taxonomy. You can define webspaces if you want to provide URLs for My webMethods Server pages that users can bookmark and that are more descriptive.

Webspaces provide hierarchical URLs for My webMethods Server pages by using page names such as /folder.public/Samples/PortletControlsSample for a Portlet Controls Sample folder in the Samples folder of Public Folders.

By default, the URLs to My webMethods Server pages do not reflect the location of the page in the MWS taxonomy. For example, a folder called Portlet Controls Sample published in the Samples folder of the Public Folders might have an URL like the following:

http://localhost:8585/meta/default/folder/0000001234

Administrators can define webspaces for portions of the My webMethods Server to include in a page's URL. For example, if an administrator sets up a webspace for Public Folders, which has an alias of "folder.public", then the item called Portlet Controls Sample that is published in the Samples folder of the Public Folders would have the following URL:

http://localhost:8585/folder.public/Samples/PortletControlsSample

This URL shows the location of the Portlet Controls Sample item within the Public Folders webspace, because it shows the path from the webspace root to the item: Public Folders > Samples > Portlet Controls Sample.

To define a new webspace with the Webspaces Administration Portlet, do the following:

Once you define a new webspace, when you browse to that folder (like Public Folders), all links to items within that folder provide intuitive URLs that show their location in the webspace. For example, if you have a Samples for in Public Folders, the URL for it will now be:

http://localhost:8585/folder.public/Samples

A Portlet Controls Sample item within the Samples folder will have a URL of:

http://localhost:8585/folder.public/Samples/PortletControlsSample
