Adding an Application to the Fiori Launchpad
The following steps are very IMPORTANT!!!!
- Go into the Portal Configuration.
- Select the App you have registered in the launchpad (Sometimes you may need to refresh your browser for the app to show up).
- Click on Parameters.
- Click Edit at the bottom.
- Click the Plus icon next to Intent Parameters.
- Add the parameter with the name "FormName" (No quotes).
- Leave the value blank for the My Forms and New Forms screen.
- Add the AppName as the value if you want a tile to go directly to the application (You may want to create a new app tile for each app you want on the launch pad).
Remember to publish the site again. There is a little circular icon that should have a yellow indicator at the top of the screen to the right of your username.
