... configure an Application

This section will guide you through the configuration procedure of an Application.

First, either click on the name of the Actor or click on the icon to the right of the Actor in the list of results and choose the Edit option. The details of the selected Actor will be displayed in a new page.

1755

In the upper part of the screen, you will see the Image, Name, Description and "Assign to Group" of the Actor you have selected.
Remember that you can always Edit an Actor by clicking this icon or Delete it clicking this icon. You can find both in the upper part of the page.

These are all useful reminders of an Actor's details.
And yet, the real configuration starts in the main section of the page.

The main section of the Actor page is divided into different tabs. Each tabs gives you access to different configuration options. Here they are:

  1. Users Tab: to create and manage the users assigned to the Partner.
  2. Groups Tab: to create and manage the groups assigned to the Partner.
  3. VFS Tab: to configure the VFS the Partner will access.
  4. File Resource Tab: to set any stream processing to be performed on received or sent data.
  5. Connection Contracts Tab: to define the mapping between a User/Group, a Local Server and a Virtual File System. There can be one and only one Connection Contract for each Actor (i.e. Company, Partner or Application).
  6. Client Connection tab: to set client connection parameters - including security configuration.

Click on the names of the tabs above to know more!
