How to switch application along with portal
I have two access groups and two respective portals in my application.
I want to be able to show a landing page when logged in with access groups, with links to both the portal like xyz as one tile and link and abc as the other. \
When clicking the links, the respective portals should be loaded.
What I tried is, I used switch application on click of link, but it takes me to the default landing page/default portal than the page/portal I wanted to navigate to.
I can use switch portal, but it switches only to the portals within the access group, remember I have two access groups and two respective portals.
Essentially, what I need is a combination of switch application and switch portal.
Any ideas, here?

@SandeepK6761Will it work if you use map 2 portals as default portal for respective access group? Then when we switch application, it would show the default portal of the respective access group.

@pavan3753 Thanks for the response Pavan. But how do we map two portals as default portals at the same time? It is a radio button to select one, correct? Am I missing something from your answer?

@SandeepK6761Yes, it's the radio button in the Access group, for one access group it would be one portal as default and for other access group other portal would be the default one.

@pavan3753 So here is the thing say for ex, I have App:Admin, Appl:Admin both pointing to the sample application MyApp:01-01-01.
In my scenario when I login, I first need to see a screen which shows me two links since I have both the accessgroups.
For this to happen, the default portal for my accessgroups should be the same correct?
Now, when I click on either link, if I use switch application, it will use the default portal in the access group to switch to, correct? which again shows me the screen where the two links are present. It is a loop. But what I need is each link should take me to different portals
So I need a landing page but when I click on the links, they should go to different portals, although the default is the same.
Hope this clarifies?

@SandeepK6761Ok got it now, switch application would show the same portal in your scenario. Please find the below article which might be helpful to launch a new portal on click of link.

@pavan3753 I tried this approach already Pavan, but it has its own defects which is a separate thread.

@SandeepK6761You can use the below function on click of link to change the portal. Pass param1 as id of new portal to launch, param2 as old portal which currently shown, param3 as new portal name. Please find the below screenshot for more details.
