Getting started
Installation
Portal 2 consists of two applications, the communication API and the client application.
Parallel installations
The old Portal and Portal 2 will be installed in parallel and the setup from the old Portal can be migrated to Portal 2 with the export/import functionality.
Read more under Migrate existing solution.
License
Portal 2 will use the same license as the old Portal, if the portal client is available in the license, Portal 2 will be available to use.
New installation
Portal 2 can be added during the regular new installation procedure of Flow, read more about Flow installation here:
Upgrade environment
Portal 2 will be available from version 6.11.10.

Migrate existing solution
Setups from the old Portal can be migrated to Portal 2 by importing pages. During import, a migration will run which will convert the old Portal into Portal 2. Once the migration is complete, the user will receive a downloadable report with a list of found issues and/or required configurations.
To run the migration, start by exporting the desired tabs from old Portal.
Once the tabs have been exported, go to Portal 2 and select Import from the Navigation section of the admin panel.
Select the files containing the tabs to be imported by clicking Browse or by dragging and dropping the file in the designated location.
The import will now try and map the connectors and workflows used. If the names of the connectors and workflows are found, they will automatically be suggested. If the names are not found, the user will need to select the correct names from the drop-down lists.
Once the connectors and workflows have been selected, click Import to start the import and migration. If issues have been detected, a report with issue details will be presented. The report can be viewed on-screen or exported using the Excel Export button.
Click Close and the migration will be completed. The Portal will now automatically be refreshed to include the new pages.
Limitations
Some features or configurations may not be available in Portal 2 since they no longer exist, are still under development, or now work differently. These differences will be presented in the migration report, along with a suggested solution or a note to inform the user that that functionality has not yet been implemented.
