Creating the UPK-Based Service Definition

To create the UPK-based service definition:

  1. Create a new related-content service definition.

    Choose a naming convention that makes UPK service definitions easily identifiable, for example UPK_<service_definition_name>

  2. Enter the service name and description.

  3. Select Non-PeopleSoft URL as the URL type.

  4. In the External URL field, enter the URL to your kp.html file.

    It should look similar to this: http://myupksite.com/upk/mycontent/dhtml_kp.html?Guid=5cd5ba9f-c3a8-441f-923b-a8aca7e95b6e&Mode=D

  5. Click the Test Related Content Service link.

    The Test Related Content Service page opens.

  6. On the Test Related Content Service page, click the Test Related Content Service link.

  7. Click the Return button to go back to the Define Related Content Service page.

  8. For conceptual information, select the New Window check box to give the administrator the ability to enable the new window functionality for the user.

  9. In the Select security options group box, select the Public Access check box.

  10. Click the Save button.

    Note:

    UPK-based service definitions do not require additional parameters.

This example illustrates how a completed service definition shows an external URL that accesses UPK content in Do It mode:

Related content service definition for a UPK topic
