  The SAP error message "FDT_CHANGE_INFO184: Link attributes were changed in catalog" typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori or SAP UI5 applications when there are changes made to the link attributes in the catalog of the Fiori Launchpad or when there are inconsistencies in the configuration of the Fiori applications.
  Cause:
  
  Changes in Catalog: The error indicates that the link attributes (such as target mapping, semantic object, or action) of a tile or a link in the Fiori Launchpad catalog have been modified. This could happen due to updates in the application configuration or changes made by an administrator.
  Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies between the catalog and the actual application or the backend system, leading to this error.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there might be issues with the transport that cause discrepancies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Catalog Configuration: Review the configuration of the catalog and ensure that the link attributes are correctly set. Verify that the target mapping and semantic objects are correctly defined.
  Reassign Links: If the links have been changed, you may need to reassign or recreate the links in the catalog to ensure they point to the correct target mappings.
  Clear Cache: Sometimes, clearing the cache of the Fiori Launchpad can resolve issues related to outdated configurations. You can do this by:
  
  Clearing the browser cache.
  Using the /UI2/FLP transaction to clear the Fiori Launchpad cache.
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport requests for any missing or incorrectly transported objects. Ensure that all necessary objects are included in the transport.
