Difficulty: EasySelf-Service Portals and Experience Cloud for Support

Universal Containers plans to launch a self-service Experience Cloud site for customer support. The administrator needs to allow logged-in portal users to view their own support cases and access public Knowledge articles. Which two actions should the administrator take to fulfill these requirements?

  1. Assign permission sets to external users to grant object-level access to Cases and Knowledge.Answer
  2. Configure Sharing Sets to grant portal users access to Cases associated with their Account or Contact.Answer
  3. C
    Create separate custom profiles for each portal user to grant unique additive permissions.
  4. D
    Disable 'Grant Access Using Hierarchies' on standard objects to restrict external record access.
  5. E
    Restrict Data Category visibility settings so portal users cannot view published Knowledge articles.

Answer

The administrator should assign permission sets to grant object-level access to Cases and Knowledge, and configure Sharing Sets to grant access to Cases associated with the user's Account or Contact.
To expose cases and self-service Knowledge articles in Experience Cloud, administrators must grant object permissions via permission sets and establish record-level access using Sharing Sets mapped to the user's Account or Contact.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Grant object-level permissions
External portal users are granted Read permissions on Cases and Knowledge.
Users must have object-level permissions before they can access any individual records.
2
Configure Sharing Sets for record access
Portal users automatically gain access to Case records linked to their Contact or Account.
Sharing Sets provide automated record-level access for high-volume Experience Cloud users.
