1. Click Add Application Link. Step 1 of the link wizard will appear.
  2. Enter the server URL of the application that you want to link to (the 'remote application').
  3. Click Next.
  4. Enter the following information:
    • Create a link back to this server – Check to add a two-way link between the two applications.
    • Username and Password – Enter the credentials for a username that has administrator access to the remote application.
      Note: These credentials are only used to authenticate you to the remote application, so that Application Links can make the changes required for the new link. The credentials are not saved.
    • Reciprocal Link URL – The URL you give here will override the base URL specified in your remote application's administration console, for the purposes of the application links connection. Application Links will use this URL to access the remote application.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Enter the information required to configure authentication for your application link:
    • The servers have the same set of users – Check this box, because the users are the same in both applications.
    • These servers fully trust each otherCheck this box, because you trust the code in both applications and are sure both applications will maintain the security of their private keys.
      For more information about configuring authentication, see Configuring authentication for an application link.
