### Log in to SAP Fiori Launchpad as administrator


If you do not have already an existing ADT project, you need to find the URL to the launchpad in the BTP cockpit. For more information see the [link] (https://help.sap.com/docs/BTP/65de2977205c403bbc107264b8eccf4b/11e765e8af6d476f99ce014b3f02bd64.html). Otherwise you can use the existing project to find out the launchpad link as follows:

 1. Open Eclipse and do right click on your system and navigate to **Properties**.
