Every portal starts from a template — a ready-made starting point you then customize in Portal Studio. This guide walks through creating one.

​
Prerequisites

  • Permission to manage portals in your workspace
  • An active developer key for your workspace — Statisfy uses it to wire up your portal’s live data. If you don’t have one yet, you can generate it right from the create dialog (see the note below).
  • A name for your portal (the content is all editable later)

​
Create a Portal

  1. Open the Portals page.
  2. Select Create new portal. (If you don’t have any portals yet, select Create portal in the empty state.) The Portals page showing an existing portal card and the Create new portal tile
  3. In the Create a portal dialog, choose a template. Each template is a different starting layout for your portal. Select Live preview on a template card to open it in a new tab and see what it looks like before you commit. The Create a portal dialog with a grid of templates to choose from and a Portal name field
  4. Enter a Portal name — for example, Acme Customer Portal. Names can be up to 255 characters.
  5. Select Create portal.
Statisfy creates the portal and opens it in Portal Studio so you can start customizing right away.
Your workspace needs a developer key to create a portal. If you don’t have one, Create portal stays disabled and a Generate key button appears next to it — select it, generate a key, and you can then create the portal. You only do this once; later portals reuse the same key. See Publishable Keys & Secrets.
A new portal starts in Draft status — it isn’t visible to your customers until you take it live for the first time. See Building & Publishing.
