Create Freedom UI pages for external users

To set up Freedom UI form pages available for external users:

  1. Create the Freedom UI app. Instructions: Manage apps
  2. Set up the external page for the app object. Instructions: Set up the app UI
  3. Set up access permissions to the object for external users. Instructions: Object operation permissions
  4. Add the section to the external workplace. Instructions: Customize Portal Creatio

You can set up Freedom UI form pages available for external users for any out-of-the-box or custom portal section in an editable app using no-code tools. This can be done in multiple ways:

Creatio stores the custom Freedom UI form page in the app where you created it. The page is bound to the object via the Addon type configuration element stored in the app where you bound the page to the object. The app, page, and configuration element must be present in the environment for the functionality to operate as intended.
