About CA Clarity PPM Data Providers for CA Clarity PPM Web Parts

You can use CA Clarity PPM data providers to source data for CA Clarity PPM Web Parts. The data providers that are available in CA Clarity PPM Web Parts are stock and custom subobjects of CA Clarity PPM projects and Studio queries.

The available data providers depend on the CA Clarity PPM server, proxy user, and project that the CA Clarity PPM project site is bound to. For a non-CA Clarity PPM project site, the available data providers depend on the CA Clarity PPM Web Part. When configuring a CA Clarity PPM Web Part, the following factors affect the list of data providers:

• the configuration of the selected server
• the access rights of the selected proxy user
• the partition of the selected project

Verify that your Studio queries conform to certain requirements before you use them as data providers in Microsoft SharePoint. For example, you can add a CA Clarity PPM Web Part to a CA Clarity PPM project site or to an external project site. In either case, the query executes on the particular CA Clarity PPM server that retrieves the information.
