The wwpro_api_progrp_registry package contains Oracle Portal provider group registration APIs. These methods are used by the portlet provider administration UI and by developers to register provider groups and perform other related tasks: register, edit and delete provider groups list provider groups search provider groups by ID, or name register providers within a group and list providers within a group. A provider group is a collection of portlet providers that is defined by a remote provider groups service. For example, Web providers can facilitate access to components outside Oracle Portal, such as Hotmail or Oracle Mobile. Provider groups often define a group of providers that share a common feature, such as belonging to the same organization, or providing similar content or function. Note: A provider group only contains Web or database providers that are accessed via the PL/SQL HTTP Adapter. A Portal Administrator can register a provider group for use with their portal. Once registered, the provider group simplifies the process of registering the providers in the group.
