The Knowledge Management Service Portal enables users to perform the same operations
that are available with the Knowledge Management V3 plugin. From the portal, users can view
knowledge bases and articles, search for information, sort and filter search results, and
provide feedback.

Portal plugin (com.snc.knowledge_serviceportal) is active by default.

sorting, and filtering knowledge base information. To configure widget instance options
