A Portal Application in OpenECOMP Any application onboarded on ONAP Portal is a standalone program that can be visually manipulated accessed via the GUI in the ONAP Portal. (Note: you can also add a graphical "widget" – in effect a lightweight application) to the Portal UI. To develop such a applications, you will need the development environment of OpenECOMP, such as Java8, along with other tools, depending on the complexity of your application; see Required Tools. Your application will likely need to invoke libraries containing the APIs of the Common Services used with OpenECOMP. Upon completion and testing, you will need to follow the process for submitting an Application to be used in the OpenECOMP environment (see the Certification Group in Mailing Lists).
The following document describes how to create a Portal application in detail:
