Summary

A portal harness is displayed with IAC. It initially displays correctly but usage of the portal is incorrect.

For example:

When clicking Get Next button, no request is submitted to server from browser using fiddler.
When opening an existing work object it displays in a popup window instead of the Work Area tab.

Steps to Reproduce

Use IAC Gadget with PegaA parameter of display and a PegaA_harness parameter value.

Example:

<div id="PegaContent" style="overflow:auto;"
     PegaGadget="showCompPortal"
     PegaResize="stretch"
     PegaA="display"
     PegaA_harnessName="User"
     PegaA_pzPrimaryPage="pyPortal"
     PegaDefer="false">
</div>

Root Cause

When displaying a full end user portal with IAC the portal has to be initialized correctly through Data-Portal.ShowDesktop. The correct way to accomplish this step is to use a gadget that calls Data-Portal.ShowDesktop.

<div id="PegaContent" style="overflow:auto"
    PegaGadget="showCompPortal"
    PegaResize="stretch"
    PegaA="OpenWorkByURL"
    PegaA_query="pyActivity=Data-Portal.ShowDesktop"
    PegaDefer="false"
</div> This will initialize and load the users default portal. 

if the portal is dynamic, this can be accomplished by calling a custom activity that sets pxThread.pxPortal and then calling the Data-Portal.ShowDesktop:

<div id="PegaContent" style="overflow:auto"
    PegaGadget="showCompPortal"
    PegaResize="stretch"
    PegaA="OpenWorkByURL"
    PegaA_query="pyActivity=Data-Portal.ShowDynamicPortal"
    PegaDefer="false"
</div>

Resolution

Change the IAC gadget to call Data-Portal.ShowDesktop to correctly initialize and display and portal.
