Making BMC Helix custom applications available from BMC Helix Portal

BMC Helix Portal provides a unified view of the custom applications that are developed in BMC Helix Innovation Studio 22.1.00 and later versions.

Custom applications are not available on BMC Helix Portal by default. You can add these applications to BMC Helix Portal and then launch them from the BMC Helix Portal console without the need for separate authentication.

To enable you to add and launch custom applications for an integrated product from BMC Helix Portal, you need to request the BMC SaaS Operations team.
