# Creating and Managing Brand Portals

## How to create and manage your online catalogs in Plytix.

Brand Portals are web portals that let you share product information and files with internal and external stakeholders. Visitors to your portal can browse and download content that you have curated specifically for them. This article explains how to create a new Brand Portal, define your portal settings, and delete portals. 

ℹ️ Check out this other Help Center article for information on how to [Design your Brand Portal](https://help.plytix.com/en/designing-e-catalogs).

### Creating a Brand Portal

To create a Brand Portal: 

1. Go to "**Brand Portals**" in the top navigation menu
2. Click "**Add Brand Portal**"
3. Name the new Brand Portal
4. Click "**Add**"

![1-create\_and\_manage\_ecatalogs-create\_new](https://help.plytix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help%20center/Help%20Center%20Images/HC%20-%20Create%20and%20manage%20ecatalogs/1-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-create_new.png?width=670&height=383&name=1-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-create_new.png)

You will be taken to your new Brand Portal's details page. 

💡 If you have many portals, use the search bar to help you find the right one. 

When you create a new Brand Portal or duplicate an existing one, you will have the option to Preview it or Publish it. Only after publishing it, will your Brand Portal's URL be generated which will make it public.

![2-create\_and\_manage\_ecatalogs-preview\_and\_publish](https://help.plytix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help%20center/Help%20Center%20Images/HC%20-%20Create%20and%20manage%20ecatalogs/2-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-preview_and_publish.png?width=670&height=383&name=2-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-preview_and_publish.png)

ℹ️ Previewing allows you to see up to 10 products in a Brand Portal before it is published.

 

Click "Publish" to make your Brand Portal live, and confirm it on the popup that appears.

![3-create\_and\_manage\_ecatalogs-publish](https://help.plytix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help%20center/Help%20Center%20Images/HC%20-%20Create%20and%20manage%20ecatalogs/3-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-publish.png?width=670&height=383&name=3-create_and_manage_ecatalogs-publish.png)

After you publish a Brand Portal, you'll have the option to View and Share it by copying its URL to your clipboard.

![4-creating\_a\_channel-share\_link](https://help.plytix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help%20center/Help%20Center%20Images/HC%20-%20Create%20and%20manage%20ecatalogs/4-creating_a_channel-share_link.png?width=670&height=275&name=4-creating_a_channel-share_link.png)
