After you’ve added any assets, headers, text, call to action buttons, etc. to a portal, click Preview and you’ll be able to see how the portal will look for anyone you [invite to or share it](/acquia-dam/how-do-i-share-portal "How do I share a portal?") with. Continue making additions and changes to the portal in the Live Editor, then share it when you're done.
