SuperMap iPortal provides administrators with the following data management functions:

Cancel published services

The Service Status column of the data list identifies whether the data is published or not. Check one or more data, click the "Cancel Publication" button, all the services corresponding to the selected data will be unregistered from your portal, and these hosting services will also be removed from the corresponding hosting server.

Review data

The data uploaded, registered and updated by ordinary users of iPortal application need to be reviewed and approved by the administrator before they can be retrieved and used in iPortal.

Enable/Disable Data Review

The data audit function is not enabled by default. iPortal administrator, after logging in, click Manage > Resource Management > Data > Data Audit to enter the "Data Audit" page, click "Enable" button to enable the data audit function.

 Meanwhile, Portal administrators can enable or disable this function by modifying iportal.xml in [SuperMap iPortal installation directory]\webapps\iportal\WEB-INF folder. For details,see: iPortal configuration file description.

Configure data attribute fields

Configure data attribute fields, i.e., configure which data attribute fields need to be re-audited by the administrator after being modified. If an ordinary user modifies the approved data, even if he/she modifies any of the attribute fields, by default, the administrator needs to re-examine the data. Of course, the administrator can configure in the iportal.xml configuration file which data attribute fields need to be re-audited after being modified. Data attribute fields include: name (fileName), description (description), thumbnail (thumbnail), tags (tags), data range (bounds), coordinate system (epsgCode), map preview URL (previewURL), data providers (providers),  For specific configuration, see: iPortal configuration file description.
