Setting application-specific configuration settings with configuration definitions and configuration bundles
Use configuration definitions and configuration bundles to set application-specific configuration parameter values to store historical configuration information or to port the configuration definitions and values to other instances of the application.
Configuration definitions are rules that set one application-specific parameter. Configuration definitions are subject to rule resolution. You can override the default value in any application version that inherits the configuration definition. Create a snapshot of all configuration definitions and values in a configuration bundle.
- Creating a configuration definition
Create a configuration definition rule to set an application-specific parameter value. This configuration definition applies only to one application. You can create a snapshot of all configuration definitions and values in a configuration bundle to store historical configuration information or for export to other instances of the application on other Pega nodes.
- Editing a configuration definition
To change the description or default value of an application-specific parameter, edit the configuration definition.
- Temporarily overriding a configuration definition value
To temporarily change the configuration definition value in an application and inheriting rulesets, override the default value.
- Reverting to a default configuration definition value
To return an overridden configuration definition to the default value, revert the override.
- Creating a configuration bundle
To create a snapshot of the current application configuration definition values to save or export to other nodes, create a configuration bundle.
- Editing a configuration bundle
To change the configuration definition values in a configuration bundle, edit the configuration bundle.
- Exporting a Configuration Bundle to a JSON file
To apply a configuration bundle of configuration definition and values to an application on another Pega node, export the configuration bundle to a JSON file.
- Loading a configuration bundle onto an application
To apply the configuration definition values in a configuration bundle to your application instance, load the configuration bundle onto the application.
