If you are looking for a
good resource for setting up Unified Navigation check out this Blog Post
at Remote PSAdmin. Now if you get through this blog and everything is working
through the folder setup, but not in your Navigation Collections? Then you need
to look a these additional setup steps.
One, make sure all users
have access to the PTCS_GETAUTHORIZATION service operation in all environments
that are going to utilize Unified Navigation. This Service Operation is
used in the PORTAL_CREF_ADM.PORTAL_OBJNAME FieldFormula peoplecode when building
the user's homepage to determine if they have access to links within Navigation
Collections or Pagelets from remote nodes.
Second, make sure that
your portal URI for your content provider matches the Integration Broker node for that content provider. So when you define a remote node for a navigation collection and you use the HRMS node in your Portal environment there is a function, isIBNetworkNode, in the
PORTAL_CREF_ADM.PORTAL_OBJNAME FieldFormula peoplecode that is using the Portal
URI to match the Portal Node to the Integration Broker node. If this function cannot match your HRMS nodes Portal URI to an Integration Broker portal URI then it will not fire the message from step one and your Navigation Collection link will not be presented to your users.
