The following
table lists the types of content that can be accessed
through the SAS Information Delivery Portal. Your installation of
the portal might include some or all of these types of content. The
content you see depends on which types your portal administrator has
made available and which SAS software products your organization has
installed.
The first
column in the table shows the icon that is associated with each content
type. When content items are listed in a portlet or in the search
results, the icon indicates the item's content type. You can move
your cursor over the icon to see the description of the content type
displayed in a pop-up box.
