CA Clarity PPM Project Sites (Microsoft SharePoint Connector) › CA Clarity PPM Server Binding Parameters

CA Clarity PPM Server Binding Parameters

While creating a CA Clarity PPM project site, provide the following parameters to bind the site to a CA Clarity PPM server:

• CA Clarity PPM server URL
• CA Clarity PPM user account parameters:
  • CA Clarity PPM user name, that is, the CA Clarity PPM proxy user name assigned to the CA Clarity PPM project site
  • The password associated with the CA Clarity PPM user account

Additionally, you require providing the ID of the CA Clarity PPM project to access. The project ID that you provide is used to filter sub-objects that belong to the CA Clarity PPM project. Also, restricts the Studio queries that you write to execute on the particular project to which the CA Clarity PPM project site binds.

The CA Clarity PPM Web Parts that you add to CA Clarity PPM project sites inherit the parameters. Because of this, a CA Clarity PPM project site can be associated with only one project in CA Clarity PPM.

After you create a CA Clarity PPM project site, you can change the CA Clarity PPM server binding properties of the site to bind the site to a project on a different CA Clarity PPM server. You can change the CA Clarity PPM server binding properties on the CA Clarity PPM Binding page.

Note: The site properties of non-CA Clarity PPM project sites do not include CA Clarity PPM server binding parameters. Therefore, the CA Clarity PPM Web Parts that are added to non-CA Clarity PPM project sites cannot inherit the CA Clarity PPM server binding parameters from the site. When configuring CA Clarity PPM Web Parts on non-CA Clarity PPM project sites, explicitly provide the parameters to bind a CA Clarity PPM Web Part to a CA Clarity PPM server.
