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.
