Configuration parameter in LC ES

Avatar

Former Community Member

Hi all,

I have a simple question ... In ES2 and ES2.5 we can define variables as configuration parameter, which is very very useful.

I'm asked to do a project on livecycle ES (8.0), with Workbench ES and after reading a lot of documentation, it seems that this feature was not available in this version.

So my question is : Is there a way to use variables as "configuration parameters" in LCES ? If not what was the common workaround ?

Regards,

Thomas

Hi all,

I finally managed to do what I wanted. Since I'm using a WatchedFolder as endpoint for this process, I defined an input string variable "myPath". When I create the WatchedFolder endpoint, I set this value to literal with the value I need. This way it's always available and editable through the adminui !

Hope this helps,

Thomas
