I am trying to learn how to setup a webportal so that users can connect via the web to our Fortigate and get proxied over to a specific internal website.
What documentation should I be looking at to learn how to make this happen? I am running Fortigate VM in AWS version 7.4.4

Hello @systemgeek ,
You can review this document for ssl-vpn web portal configuration.

Thought it would be that simple. However, when I try to test I get "The SSL-VPN portal has been enabled for tunnel mode use only. FortiClient is required to connect.". I do already have SSL-VPN setup for normal VPN. So after setting up the portal I just added the portal to the SSL-VPN Settings at the bottom.
Clearly I am missing something.
Hello @systemgeek ,
Probably you didn't enable web mode in the ssl-vpn portal configuration. Can you enable web mode and try again?
