The OpenLM connector is a preview feature to demonstrate how Tachyon can collect license data from OpenLM. Currently, the collected data can be viewed only by using SQL queries, and cannot be viewed in the TachyonPortal or its Consumer applications. License data from OpenLM is not merged with entitlement data used by AppClarity.
The connector will be updated in future versions of Tachyonto support ongoing changes by OpenLM as they migrate from their XML-based API to their new REST-based API.
