Take Control of Your Fonts

Customize your Curator fonts to reflect your brand. Make titles bold, section headers upper case, italicize the body text or use a different font for footer text. You can do all of these and more in Curator using Font Options and Menu Styles.
To access the first set of options, navigate to Settings > Curator > Portal Settings. Under the Styles tab, expand Font Options.
Once expanded, you will find a series of select lists providing a granular level of control. From title, header, body and footer, you can specify font family, boldness, capitalization, italicization and more for each font. As you go through these options, personalizing each setting, you can see them applied in real time through the preview pane.
Next, expand Menu Styles to access the same set of controls to modify menus and drop-downs.
With this level of control comes so many options that it may start to feel overwhelming. Luckily, you can set default Font Family and Font Weight values through Global Options.
These will be inherited, and appear as the default selected, by all Font Family and Font Weight select lists under Font Options and Menu Styles.
This is just one of the new features allowing you to further personalize your Curator instance!
Recently, Tableau has been encouraging the use of connected apps for external applications, instead of using trusted tickets. All of Tableau’s recent embedding features require connected apps. Since this only deals with behind the scenes authentication, there is no impact to the end user. In our effort to remain closely aligned with Tableau, Curator is transitioning to only using connected apps.
Curator has added the feature to be able to send mark commenting data to a webhook. With the widespread use of API integration platforms, this really opens the doorway to virtually unlimited use cases.
If you’ve got users reporting access issues, your first stop on the road to resolution should be the User Menu Access button. This feature gives you a snapshot view of any given user’s current menu structure, as well as their permissions status for all the content within that menu.
