This option is only available for type xuml-service (= containerized xUML services).

The administration application allows you to change the configuration of a containerized xUML service.

	The administration application allows you to change the configuration of a Docker container. You have two options to open the configuration of a container: Click Edit configuration in the quick actions bar in the services' list.
	Open the details page of the service and scroll down to section Configuration.
	In the Configuration section you can directly modify xUML service settings. When you save your changes, the container will be re-created and restarted. Changes are possible after the first deployment of the containerized service.
	You can change the Current Value of a service setting. The Default Value is displayed next to the current value. If you want to reset the setting to its default, click Reset . Click Save after you have completed your changed. Please note: Save is only enabled when changes have been made. Clicking Save triggers a restart, changes in the Configuration section are directly applied to the service.
	Service settings can be erroneous if a setting name contains special characters or whitespaces. Invalid service settings are marked . Their number is also displayed on top right of the list. If a service setting is erroneous, you cannot change its current value. In case that your service contains erroneous settings, you can do the following: If it is a setting in a Designer service ("custom value"): Open the service in the Designer, correct the settings' name and redeploy the service. If it is a setting in a platform service, please contact our support team.
	As there are many available settings, use the filter field to search for the setting you want to modify. The content of the filter field is applied to the columns Section and Key.
	Click Extended filter to display the extended filter options: Section Reset Filter If a filter is applied, the extended filter changes to .
	In the main filter window, you can reset all selected filters. Click Reset Filter. In the filter option window, you can also reset the selection.

xUML Service Settings

The settings are categorized into the following:

Global Settings: In this category, you can change setting values that are global to the xUML service. Deployment information retrieved with deployment macros can be overwritten in this category, too (see Global Settings below).

Add-ons: In this category, the settings comprise add-on related values like tagged values, interface URIs, and others. For instance, data of the SQL adapter, File System adapter, Timer, or SOAP service request may be overwritten. For more details, refer to the example below in Add-on Settings.

You can modify settings of a service no matter if the service is running or if it has been stopped. Saving the changes triggers a re-create and restart of the container. Changing the settings on a stopped service will start the service. Settings will be stored, so if you stop the service and restart it, the settings are restored.

If you delete a service, all settings are lost and cannot be recovered.

Global Settings

Settings Group	Setting	Description	Allowed Values
Settings / Deployment Macros	Service Composite
	getCompositeCategory	Value returned by Action Language macro getCompositeCategory(). Initial value of this setting is the category specified in the service details (see Managing the Service Details). You can change this value here.	any string
	getCompositeName	Value returned by Action Language macro getCompositeName(). Initial value of this setting is the service name. You can change this value here.	any string
	getCompositeVersion	Value returned by Action Language macro getCompositeVersion(). Initial value of this setting is the service version in the service details (see Managing the Service Details). You can change this value here.	a version string
	PAS Platform
	AuthenticatorEnabled	Specify whether users are allowed to identify themselves using an x-pas-user header instead of a bearer token. For compatibility reasons true (x-pas-header allowed) is the default option but this is deprecated and may lead to security issues. If you do not rely on the x-pas-header, we recommend setting this option to false.	true	Allow using an x-pas-header or a bearer token for authentication (default).
	AuthenticatorEnabled		false	Authentication only by bearer token.
	AuthService::minimalAccessTokenLifeSpan	Define when a refresh token should be triggered. Default is 30 (if the token last less than 30 seconds it will be refreshed before it is used). In general there is no need to change the default of 30 seconds.	any integer
	KeycloakInstance::clientId	Specify the clientId to use when authenticating the service. Default is keycloak-clientId. The clientId is defined in Keycloak, it should be changed in production to define specific authorization for this service.	any string
	KeycloakInstance::clientSecret	Specify the clientSecret associated to the clientId. Default is keycloak-clientSecret. The clientSecret is defined in Keycloak, it should be changed in production to define specific authorization for this service.	any string
	KeycloakAlias:Location:host	Specify the hostname (domain) of the Keycloak SSO system. Default is keycloak-host.	any string
	KeycloakAlias:Location:basePath	Specify the subpath of the Keycloak system. Default is keycloak-basePath.	any string
	KeycloakAlias:Location:port	Specify the port of the Keycloak system. Default cannot be changed.	8080
	KeycloakAlias:Location:protocol	Specify the protocol of the Keycloak system. Default cannot be changed.	http
	PasSecurityService::allowAnonymous	Specify whether anonymous users (no PAS users) should be allowed to send requests to the PAS BPMN service. In contrast to anonymous users, PAS users are identified by a bearer token or x-pas-user header). If this setting is set to false, requests of unauthenticated users will return HTTP error 401. This setting does not disable any role configuration within the BPMN. If there are lanes configured in the BPMN, the service can only be accessed by authenticated users.	true	Allow anonymous access (default).
	PasSecurityService::allowAnonymous		false	Access for identified users only.
	Service
	<service settings>	In your Designer service, you can define name-value pairs using the setting macro in an implementation. These values can be modified here.

Add-on Settings

Each xUML service adapter has its own settings that are initialized in the xUML model and can be changed in the configuration.

If you are running an xUML service that is connecting to a database backend, you can modify the tagged values of the database interface respectively dependency. Before starting a deployed xUML service that connects to a database backend, you may want to redefine required database parameters.

Generally, most of the add-on settings that are related to an xUML Service Adapter have a corresponding tagged value in the component diagram. Refer to the documentation of the corresponding adapter for these settings.

SQL Adapter Connection Settings

Key	Value
DBType	Name of the SQL Service component, e.g. SQLite
DBName	Name of the database, e.g. ScheerACME_Customers
Connection Pooling	This tagged value controls the connection pooling. If true, each connection is put into a pool after use. If an SQL adapter requires a connection, it is taken from the pool. If no connection is available, a new connection is being created and put into the pool after use. The time the connection is kept in the pool depends on the other pooling parameters.
Max Connection Reuse	This tagged value controls how often a connection can be re-used. After the connection has been re-used for maxConnectionReuse, it will be closed and not put back into the pool. This feature has been introduced because some databases had problems if the connection was re-used too often. Value -1 means the connection will be re-used forever. In this case you should define reasonable values for maxConnectionAge or maxConnectionIdleTime (see above). Note that the pooling is implicitly switched off, if maxConnectionReuse is set to 0.
Max Connection Age	After a given connection age (in minutes) the connection will be closed and removed from the pool.
Max Connection Idle Time	Connections not used for the time specified (in minutes) will be closed and removed from the pool. This is useful for connections going through firewalls because such connections might be cut off after some time.

For more information on the SQL adapter settings (other tagged values, default values, ...) refer to the xUML Services Reference Guide.

SQL Adapter Authorization Settings

These settings allow you to adapt the SQL database user and password of the xUML service.

Key	Value
customers: DBUser	Database user
customers: DBPassword	Database password

Other Add-on Settings

Find below a list of other add-on settings and their description. For the sake of completeness, we also mentioned settings coming from the model for some setting groups (see column Specified in Model on).
