Running HCL Workload Automation from a mobile device

Use your mobile device to easily and quickly interact with your HCL Workload Automation environment.

The IT market is moving towards mobile devices, which help you perform a large number of tasks, such as manage your sales workforce, read your email, check your accounting system, or attend a web conference. Applications designed for mobile devices must be intuitive and user-friendly while remaining robust and reliable, and providing instant access to business and client data wherever they are.

You can interact with HCL Workload Automation by using the Self-Service Catalog and Self-Service Dashboards applications.

You can open the applications also from the Single Entry Point page.

For details refer to HCL Workload Automation user interfaces.

To use an engine connection from a mobile device, ensure the engine credentials are shared or the Dynamic Workload Console is configured to use Single-Sign On. For more information, see the section about configuring the Dynamic Workload Console to use Single Sign-On in the Administration Guide.
