Providing Access to Non-Admin Tabs When App Portal Site is Disabled

App Portal 2021 R1

When managing catalog items for App Broker, some administrators might want to view and test catalog items in the App Portal end user interface: the Browse Catalog and the other end-user facing tabs. However, because in this scenario the App Portal site is not enabled (because all end users are using the ServiceNow interface), only those App Portal users with full administrative rights are able to view the App Portal end user interface.

To address this, you can select the Access Non-Admin Tabs When Site Is Disabled option on the Site Management > Catalog Security view. If this option is selected, the user will be permitted to view the end user facing App Portal interface even though the App Portal site is not enabled (because the Enable site? option on the Site Management > Settings > General view is not selected).
