The Rational Adapter for HP ALM provides a web-based user
interface for working with HP ALM resources.
The interface consists of a set of resource pages, from which you
can work with HP ALM artifacts that are linked to Rational artifacts.
You use adapter resource pages to view HP ALM artifacts that are linked
to Rational artifacts as well as to create and delete linkages between
artifacts and easily go to the HP ALM or Rational application as required.
Delegated previews allow you to view information about HP ALM or Rational
artifacts from a single place.

A top-level menu bar appears on all resource pages and contains
these elements:
- The home icon. Clicking it returns you to the a summary page for
all projects.
- The tools icon. Clicking it displays the main administration page
for the adapter. From here, you can set properties, manage OAuth consumers,
and configure friend servers
- The help icon, which displays a menu that lets you view configuration
settings for the adapter or go to the Information Center for product
help.
- The Launch HP ALM button, which opens the
HP ALM client in a new window.
