Configuring consumer authentication for a CLM application in Rational Focal Point

To preview linked elements from an application for the Rational® solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM), you must be a member of the workspace. If you are an administrator, you can authorize users of a CLM application to preview linked elements without logging on to IBM® Rational Focal Point™.

Before you begin

About this task

When Rational Focal Point is registered as an outbound friend in a CLM application, the CLM application is displayed as an inbound consumer in Rational Focal Point.

You can edit the consumer properties of the CLM application. If you delete the CLM application from the list of inbound consumers, the preview of linked elements from the CLM application is disabled.

Procedure

  1. Click Application > Consumers(Inbound).
  2. Click the name of the relevant CLM application.
  3. Select the Allow preview with no authentication? check box.
  4. Click Save.

Results

Users of the CLM application can preview linked elements without an additional user license for Rational Focal Point.

What to do next

Verify that a preview view is selected for the module that contains the elements to be previewed in the CLM application. For more information, see Configuring a view for previewing linked elements in Rational Focal Point.
