Configuring the Launchpad
There are various methods for configuring the SAP Fiori launchpad. This section gives an overview of these methods and explains which setting takes precedence if a parameter has been defined in more than one place.
The following table shows the configuration methods and their priorities:
| Priority | Configuration Method | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | URL parameters |
Parameters that you provide in a URL override any other parameters.
For more information, see Setting Parameters in the Launchpad URL. |
| 2 | Launchpad configuration files |
In a launchpad configuration file, you can set parameters for the launchpad without modifying any files delivered by SAP. For example, this allows you to disable personalization. Parameters that you define in a launchpad configuration file override any parameters defined in the FioriLaunchpad.html file or in Customizing. For more information, see Setting Parameters in a Launchpad Configuration File. |
| 3 | Customizing |
This configuration method is only available on ABAP-based systems. Parameters that you define in Customizing on the front-end server override any parameters defined in the FioriLaunchpad.html file. For more information, see Defining Configuration Parameters in Customizing |
| 4 | FioriLaunchpad.html file |
This file is delivered by SAP and is installed on the front-end server. It contains some default parameters. For more information, see Setting Parameters in the FioriLaunchpad.html File. |
Many parameters can only be configured using a subset of the methods described above. For more details about which parameters are available, see the respective documentation.
