To set up an LWR Service Catalog site, use the Build Your Own (LWR) template. This template is highly customizable where you can create advanced styling and configurations. In addition, the template supports only data categories. No other templates are supported. When you use this template, you’re provided a standard Home page that you can configure to your preferences. Automated configuration of the Service Catalog site pages and components isn’t available. You must set up all these pages and configure the components, which include: - Adding Data Categories to your Service Catalog site. - Building the Service Catalog and Network Data Category object pages and the standard Search page. - Configuring the components on these pages. Before you take the steps, make sure you: - Have data categories.
