Configuring more remote help connections

You can add more remote help connections to add other product documentation into your help system.
About this task
When you want to have access to the documentation for multiple products at the same time, you can add multiple Documentation URLs so that all of the content loads into the same help system.

For example, when you have products that integrate with each other, you might find it useful to have both sets of documentation available and searchable at the same time.

Procedure
  1. Open the list of help system connections by completing one of these steps:
    • To change the help content selections for your Eclipse client only:
      1. With your product open, click Windows > Preferences.
      2. Expand Help and click Content.
    • To change the help content selections for anyone who is connected to this help system:
      1. In a browser, open the Help Administration page by typing the URL that is in this format: http://localhost:port/help-name/updater/admin.jsp.
      2. Select the Remote help configuration tool.
