    3. https://fully qualified hostname:port/qm/admin and log in to the Rational Quality Manager server by using an account that has administrator privileges.
  2. On the Server Administration page, click the Server tab.
  3. Select the Consumers (Inbound) page. New requests are listed in the Provisional Keys section.
  4. To identify the application that uses the consumer key, update the Consumer Name field with the name of the application that is requesting access to this application.

    For example, JIRA Application

  5. As the consumer shares authorization with other trusted consumers, select the Trusted check box.
  6. At the Authorized field, change the Pending value to Approve.
  7. Click Save. The key is included in the Authorized Keys section of the page.
  8. Repeat the previous steps for each of the CLM friend relationships to approve another consumer key that is requested by the JIRA server.
