How to limit access user group mapping
This video showcases how to hide a menu-item entry and is in continuation of part one.
The API Portal will hopefully become the central entry-point to the API Economy of the customer and therefore I promote to have 1 API Portal instead of multiple ones. Some reasons for that:
avoid to split up the API Community into different portals. Let them go to ONE portal.
the API Portal is more, than just the API Catalog. All Blog Post, Forum Post, Pages, etc. would be split up and must be maintained on all portals
maintaining the API Portal is already a hard job and doing that for multiple portals is even harder But to have only 1 API Portal, it's important to be able fine grain control who can see what and it should not be limited to the number of APIs shown.
Some examples:
hide/show blog posts, pages, etc. to certain users
hide/show specific menu item entries
even in the Discussion form, there might be categories which are invisible to some users Joomla provides a powerable Access-Control-System, which we couldn't use in the past, but with API-Portal 7.7 it became possible OOTB.
