Recent Releases of @globus/static-data-portal
@globus/static-data-portal - v3.0.0
3.0.0 (2025-04-03)
We're happy to announce another major upgrade to the data portal, ready for your deployment!
If you have any questions or issues with your portal, feel free to open a GitHub Issue or contact Globus Support at support@globus.org.
New Features
We've made some big improvements to the browse collections interface, surfacing many of the filters you may be familiar with from the Globus web application. A collection preview has been added, revealing even more information about the collection before attempting to open.
Why a major release?
Internally, we've upgraded Next.js (15) and React (19) to their latest major versions – the portal code has been updated to reflect these changes. If you've only modified your application using content and the static.json file, no changes are required, but if you have altered the generator code (e.g. using overrides), these changes may require additional updates.

@globus/static-data-portal - v2.0.0
2.0.0 (2024-10-29)
⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
The portal will now store authorization tokens in memory (previously localStorage) by default. This change underlines our commitment to providing a "secure by default" implementation.
How is In-Memory Storage More Secure?
When using our GitHub Template Repository to create a portal, your portal is automatically configured to deploy to GitHub Pages. Without a custom domain configuration, your application will be deployed to {username}.github.io/{repository-name}. Due to the same origin access policies of localStorage this means any application you[^1] deploy to GitHub pages would have access to items placed in localStorage by the portal. We believe this default behavior is the less secure option and can lead to unexpected behavior based on your GitHub account usage.
Explaining the Breaking Change
With this new default, the end-user experience around authorization will change to requiring users to authenticate when the portal's browser window is closed. Due to the nature of this change we have flagged this change as a "breaking change", resulting in a major version bump. While we do believe most users should update without making changes to their static.json file, we have included the ability to opt-in to the previous behavior of storing authorization information in localStorage. Before enabling this functionality, we recommend being aware of security best practices related to localStorage, using a custom domain for your portal to better lock down origin access, or having policies in place to avoid unintended access when using the default GitHub Pages domain.
To opt out of this change, a new property in the static.json has been added to enable localStorage storage of authorization data (data.attributes.features.useLocalStorage).
json
{
"_static": {
"generator": {
"name": "@globus/static-data-portal"
}
},
"data": {
"version": "1.0.0",
"attributes": {
"features": {
"useLocalStorage": true
}
}
}
}
[^1]: localStorage is only available to applications on the same origin, which includes subdomain; Access is only shared with GitHub Pages applications or sites on the same account, not other GitHub account's deployments.

@globus/static-data-portal - v1.10.0
1.10.0 (2024-09-18)
Features
Multiple collections (and paths) can now be configured using the static.json file.
globus.transfer.collections can now be configured to an array of TransferCollectionConfiguration objects.
jsonc
"globus": {
"transfer": {
"collections": [
{
"collection_id": "543aade1-db97-4a4b-9bdf-0b58e78dfa69"
},
{
"collection_id": "8062693f-f8c2-46be-86d0-de651a974ff3",
"path": "/home/u_odwnwpvxpjhatlzwj4ap3svc3q/My First Folder"
}
]
}
// ...
}
When this property is provided, the user will be presented with a source selector.
globus.transfer.collection_id can still be used to enforce a single collection/path without the selector.

1.8.0 (2024-08-19)
We're happy to announce the availability of many new features in the data portal – ready for your deployment!
If you have any questions or issues with your portal, feel free to open a GitHub Issue or contact Globus Support at support@globus.org.
New Features
Custom Content – content Directory
To simplify adding custom pages or documentation to your data portal, we now support a content directory that allows you to host arbitrary Markdown files. The generated portal will include these files as pages, resulting in URL-accessible routes hosted at their designated path.
Adding Markdown-based Documentation
The most common use case for the content directory is hosting documentation for your users.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6deecb45-0b63-43ff-a9cf-ae1747b79f1a
Customizing the Landing Page Using Markdown
Provide a custom index.md in your content directory – the portal will then use this as the landing page. This override can be helpful for including customization beyond the properties supported in the static.json file.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c37e695a-eba0-40de-a1eb-d346241c0b5d
Images and Other Assets
Prior to this release, images referenced in the static.json file (e.g., attributes.content.image) were expected to be externally hosted assets. With this update can now place arbitrary images and assets in content/assets. These files will be hosted similarly to the rest of your custom content and can be referenced using relative paths in the static.json file and Markdown.
For example, you have uploaded a file at content/assets/globus-site.png, the file can be referenced in Markdown as .
Advanced Use
To allow you to customize even further, files in the content directory support MDX (.mdx).
Using MDX can be a helpful method for incorporating existing UI/UX elements (e.g., buttons) into your Markdown-based content.
In addition to MDX, you can reach for JavaScript (.js(x)) or TypeScript (.ts(x)) since, under the hood, the files you provide in content are synced with our Next.js pages directory.
Navigation Support
While linking between Markdown files in your Custom Content might be enough for your use case, we've also added support for extending the portal's navigation using the static.json file.
json
{
"attributes": {
"navigation": {
"items": [
{ "label": "Example, "to": "/example"},
{ "label": "Source", "href": "https://github.com/globus/template-data-portal" }
]
}
}
}
This structure allows you to include both internal (relative) paths, and external links.

/transferroute to accommodate custom landing pages. - Improves network request performance and loading states across the application.
