Developing Web Views for VMware vCenter
Orchestrator
Developing Web Views for VMware vCenter Orchestrator provides information about developing Web views for
VMware
®
vCenter Orchestrator.
Orchestrator Web views are Web 2.0 frontends that allow users to access Orchestrator workflows and
objects in the Orchestrator inventory by using a Web browser rather than by using the Orchestrator client.
Orchestrator provides a standard Web view that users can use to run workflows, called weboperator. The
weboperator Web view provides end users with browser access to all of the workflows in the library, that
they can run on all of the objects in the inventory.
The Web components which Orchestrator provides can be used to develop custom Web views.
Intended Audience
This information is intended for Web designers and developers who want to create or customize Web front
ends for the Orchestrator processes, using the Web 2.0 technologies.
