Prepare settings.json

Starting with version 3.x, DPE Admin is an independent, standalone web application that can be hosted in any web server and on any platform.

It is not part of the DPE setup anymore, which previously installed web frontends and web services as one monolithic application inside Microsoft IIS.

Therefore you need to tell DPE Admin how to connect to the DPE Services backend. This is done in the DPE Admin settings.json file using the parameter serviceRootAddress.

serviceRootAddress

Example:

CODE

{
  "serviceRootAddress": "https://dpe.davidsystems-test.com/DpeWebApplication"
}

When running Admin as docker container settings can also be set using environment variables, see Deploying DPE Admin as docker container

Support for Windows Authentication

Windows Authentication allows an automatic logon with your windows credentials.

Preconditions:

DigaSystem users are synced with Active Directory users (AD sync).
DpeNanoService >= v1.5.15 is used as backend
Your system is configured correctly for Kerberos/NTLM (details can be found in DpeNanoServices documentation)

Enable client support for Windows Authentication in Admin settings.json by adding the following option:

CODE

  "tryWindowsAuth": true,
