Managing application settings

This section describes how continuous compliance application settings can be managed. Visit API calls for masking administration to see the supported types of administrative APIs.

The Application Settings screen

The Application Settings screen is divided into two sections.

• Login Screen Customization

• Application Settings Grid

Login Screen Customization

The “Login Screen Customization” is an expandable/collapsible section. This section allows an administrator to view or modify the image and message that appear on the login/ssoLogin screen.

• A square/rectangular image with the minimum allowed dimensions of 150x150 pixels is supported. Larger images will be scaled down to fit the preview area of 400x150 pixels while maintaining the aspect ratio. Images up to 1 MB in size can be uploaded.

• Users can also provide a message of up to 255 characters.

A preview is provided to verify the appearance of the image and the message. Clicking on the Save button saves the branding settings, and the updates are reflected on the login screen. Clicking on the Cancel button resets the branding settings to the existing values.

The Application Settings grid

Application Settings grid allows an administrator to change the Delphix Continuous Compliance Engine settings. Presently there are 12 categories of settings:

• LDAP settings

• General settings

• Mask settings

• ASDD settings

• JOB settings

• SMTP settings

• engineSync settings

• Async settings

• Algorithm settings

• FileUpload settings

• Database Settings

• Profile settings.

Refer here for a detailed description of each application’s settings before making changes. Over time, more settings will be added to give the admin direct control over the product's various settings.

Note: Starting from 27.0.0.0 The “LoginScreenMessage” Application Setting under the group “General Settings” has been replaced with the Message field under “Login Screen Customization” Section.

Starting from 29.0.0.0, grid has expand all & collapse all button added for easier expanding & collapsing of setting groups.

Modify Application Settings values

Application settings are used to control the behavior of the application and are not intended to be changed frequently. Changing these settings can have a significant impact on the behavior of the application.

Use these instructions to modify the application settings value.

1. From the Admin section, select the Application Settings option.

2. A list of all application settings appears in a grid grouped by settings group name.

3. You can filter or sort data by the various informational fields, by clicking on those respective fields. More information on grid filtering and sorting can be found on the Graphical user interface page.

4. To find a particular setting, input the Setting Name into the search field located in the table header under "Setting Name."

5. Clicking on the pencil icon positioned in the rightmost column of each setting will reveal an input field. For a boolean setting value, a drop-down with values true & false will be visible and for other value types, an input text area will be displayed.

6. After entering the desired setting value, click outside the input field. A confirmation dialog will then appear, giving you the option to save or discard the changes.

• This screen is accessible only to admin users.

• The application settings UI displays only settings which are enabled for users to view.
