This section provides information about OpenShift Developer Perspective support for Che.

When the Che Operator is installed into Openshift Container Platform 4.2 and later, it creates a ConsoleLink Custom Resource (CR). This adds an interactive link to the Red Hat Applications menu for accessing the Che installation using the OpenShift Developer Perspective console.

To access the Red Hat Applications menu, click the three-by-three square icon (░) on the main screen of the OpenShift web console. The Che Console Link, displayed in the drop-down menu, creates a new workspace or redirects the user to an existing one.
