Interfaces and views

Last updated: 21-10-2021

SONAR is composed of two main interfaces

  1. The public interface
    • Global view
    • Organisation view
  2. The administration interface

To switch from one interface to the other:

  1. Click on the user menu
  2. Click on "Administration" or "Public interface"

The public interface

This interface is publicly available.

The global view (accessible on sonar.ch) gathers contents existing in all the organisation views.

An organisation view contains only a subset of the data. It is accessible on this URL:

  • https://sonar.ch/[view code] (generic)
  • https://sonar.ch/rero (fictive example)

The administration interface

This interface is accessible only to users with some permissions (submitters, moderators, administrators).

All creations or modifications of resources are done from the administration interface, for instance create a deposit, edit a document, etc.
