Using Application Integration

Using the Application View Console

The Application View Console is a graphical user interface (GUI) that offers an easy way to access, organize, and edit all the Application Views in your enterprise. You can use the Application View Console to create new folders and to add new Application Views to them. By storing your Application Views in folders, you can organize them according to your own navigation scheme, regardless of the adapters to which the individual Application Views belong.

This section presents the following topics:

Logging On to the Application View Console

To log on to the Application View Console:

Launch a browser window.
Enter the URL for your system's Application View Console in the following format:
```
http://your_server:your_port/wlai
```
For example: http://wli1:7001/wlai

The logon page is displayed.
Enter your WebLogic Server username and password, then click OK. The Application View Console is displayed.

Creating a Folder

The Application Views in your enterprise are organized in folders that may contain Application Views and subsidiary folders. Once you create a folder, you cannot move it to another folder. Before removing a folder, you must remove all Application Views and subfolders.

Once you create an Application View in a folder, you can remove the Application View, but you cannot move it to another folder.

To create a folder:

While logged on to the Application View Console, navigate to the folder in which you want to create the new folder.
Click the New Folder icon:

The Add Folder page is displayed.
In the New Folder field, enter a name. Any valid Java Identifier is allowed in a name.

Note: The name Root is a reserved word, and cannot be used for a folder name. If you use Root as a name, you cannot import or export the folder using the import/export utility.
Click Save.

Removing an Application View

Remove Application Views when they become obsolete or when the application to which they belong is retired.

You can remove an Application View only if both of the following conditions are true:

You have undeployed the Application View. (See Optional Step: Undeploy an Application View.) Make sure the Application View status is Not Deployed.
You are logged on to WebLogic Server with a user account with the appropriate write privileges.

To remove an Application View:

While logged on to the Application View Console, navigate to the folder in which the target Application View is located.
Click Remove. A confirmation page is displayed. Click Confirm to delete the Application View.

Removing a Folder

Remove folders that are no longer needed. To remove a folder:

Remove all Application Views and subfolders from the target folder.
Log on to the Application View Console and go to the folder in which the target folder resides.
Click Remove. A confirmation page is displayed.
Click Confirm. The folder is deleted.
