Configuring Rational Focal Point to preview elements from CLM applications

When IBM® Rational® Focal Point™ is integrated with the products of the Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM), you can preview IBM Rational Focal Point elements from CLM applications in a rich hover. To preview the elements, Rational Focal Point must be registered as an outbound friend in the CLM application configuration.

In Rational Focal Point, the CLM application is automatically identified as an inbound consumer. If you are a global administrator, you can edit the authentication settings for the CLM application in the inbound consumer configuration of Rational Focal Point. You must also configure a preview view for the module of the linked elements.

Restriction: In CLM applications, you can preview only the elements where the links are created to an instance of Rational Focal Point version 6.5.1 or later. To preview elements that were linked in versions earlier than 6.5.1, you must remove the links to those elements and create new links.
