2.1.2.1 Launchpad Configuration

This tab controls the applications that are published to the Launchpad. Users must be granted permission to launch any of the applications in the EDQ suite. Application permissions are associated with user groups, and a user can only launch an application if they belong to at least one group that is granted permissions for that application.

The main page displays each of the selected launchers in the position it will appear in on the Launchpad, each with their name, icon, description and help link. To the side there is a list of the available but not currently displayed launchers. Upon pressing the button to configure the Launchpad you are taken to a modal page with a very similar layout, except now there are buttons and drag and drop features available on each launcher depending on its location.

Note:

The Issue Management application can be accessed within Director. It is surfaced as a separate application to support linking into Director from issue notification emails. It can be used by users in the configured groups from email links without publishing it to the Launchpad. The Configuration Analysis, Dashboard and Server Console applications can also be launched from Director. Application and functional permissions are always respected.
