Portal distribution

Use a context to power prototyping in Portal Create.

When you add a prototyping library to a context, that context becomes available as a starting point for new prototypes and projects in Portal Create. Teams select it when starting a project — the context defines the design system, component library, theme, and AI guidance they build with.

This ensures everyone on the team starts from the same foundation, with consistent tokens, components, and instructions.

Portal distribution is only available on contexts with a design system connected. Workspace contexts (without a design system) cannot be used as prototyping contexts.

Enable Portal distribution

In Contexts section, open the context.

Go to the Distribution section and click on + Add button to open dropdown menu.

Select the Portal Create option.

Customize prototyping library.

Once a prototyping library is added and context is published, the context becomes available in Portal Create.

For full documentation on creating and managing prototyping libraries — including how to update library versions, set up custom code components, and configure themes — see Prototyping 101.
