Creating a cross-launch URL

As an administrator, you can create cross-launch URLs to enable IT operators to access other BMC or third party applications more easily. You can create dynamic URLs by specifying slot names in the URL. When accessed, the slot names are replaced with the slot values present in the event.

You can specify conditions that determine when the URL will be accessible to IT operators, based on the slot values present in the event. Specifying these conditions can make the cross-launch URL more relevant to the context of the event from where they are expected to be accessed.

Note that specifying slots in the URL is optional. 

The following information can help you understand the process of creating cross-launch URLs:
