Data Portal Install

Overview

Fusion Portal is a web application made up of HTML, JavaScript, Images, and CSS files.

The Portal allows you to call data from SDMX Webservices and other sources which enables you to obtain data from the data provider and import it directly into Fusion Registry.

To install the Data Portal, the recommended approach is to host the Fusion Portal on the same domain as your Fusion Registry, for example if your Registry is accessed via https://FusionRegistry.yourorg.com then the Portal could be accessed via https://FusionPortal.yourorg.com, this will eliminate any potential CORS issues.

If your Fusion Registry is hosted via Apache Tomcat, then you can simply copy and paste the Fusion Data Browser folder into the webapps folder of tomcat. Whatever your folder is called that has the Portal will be what goes in your URL of the web browser, for example Tomcat/webapps/FusionPortal will be accessed via http(s)//localhost:8080/FusionPortal. The DPortal can be hosted on any server capable of hosting HTML and JavaScript, it does not need to be Apache Tomcat.
