This button opens the OSLC Connector Administration window which allows to configure Friends, Consumers Inbound Details, Outbound Detailsand Associations.
...
Friends
The Friends area allows the administrator to configure and manage the list of friends. A friend is an OSLC capable application to which this OSLC Connector is allowed to make outbound requests, in order to consume the services provided by the friend.
If the OSLC capable application configured as a friend supports OIDC and is under the same SSO as this OSLC Connector for Codebeamer, then no other configurations are required.
If the OSLC capable application configured as a friend supports oauth10a, then an Outbound Detail must be configured for the friend.
This is an instance based configuration.
...
Inbound Details
The Inbound Details area allows the administrator to configure and manage the list of allowed incoming oauth10a connections.
This is an instance based configuration.
...
To add a new oAuth10a Inbound Detail you will need to provide a name, a consumer key and a consumer secret.
| Note |
|---|
An inbound detail that is not approved cannot be used to generate access tokens. |
Once you have successfully configured a new Inbound Detail, you will have to provide it as an Outbound connection in the external application.
Outbound Details
The Outbound Details area allows the administrator to configure and manage the list of known external applications to which this OSLC Connector for Codebeamer is able to connect using oauth10a.
A consumer key and secret are used for secure communications between this OSLC Connector and the known external application.
This is an instance based configuration.
...
To configure a new Outbound Detail you have to provide a name, a consumer key and secret pair (that has been previously configured or generated in the external tool), the rootservices URL of the external tool and a comma separated list of all URLs that have to be protected by this connection.
E.g. to connect OSLC Connector for Codebeamer to Smartfacts, you will have to:
set the Rootservices to https://<oslc-smartfacts-url>/rootservices
set the Protected URLs to https://<oslc-smartfacts-url>
| Note |
|---|
After adding a new Outbound Detail, the OSLC Connector for Codebeamer needs to be restarted. |
Associations
The Associations area allows the administrator to configure to which service providers the current Codebeamer Project connects to (read data, allow links to be made to).
The list of associations is bound to the selected Codebeamer Project.
...
To create a new association simply select the Friend and wait for the list of projects to be loaded. Once this has loaded select the project and domain corresponding to the desired association.
Projects can provide one or more OSLC domains - selecting the desired OSLC domain is important.
List of links for the selected artifact
A list of grouped by link type links is displayed inside the main window for the selected codebeamer itemCodebeamer item.
| Note |
|---|
Which links are displayed is affected by the project associations (configured in Settings → Associations) and the user’s rights, roles and permissions in the associated projects. |
Each link has a context menu button and a jump to artifact button. Additionally, hovering on the linked artifact name will open the artifact preview.
