Control Center BL appsettings

This page lists all the appsettings.json settings available for the Control Center BL (WebApi).

The appsettings.json file is located in the folder <AMT Environment>\AmtTools\ControlCenterWebApi\

The appsettings file is (sub-)divided into the following sections.

AuthenticationType

The authentication type used to validate tokens received from the Control Center, the only valid option is "JWT" (JSON Web Token).

"AuthenticationType": "JWT",

JWT

The 'JWT' section contains settings needed to validate tokens received from the Control Center.

• Authority - The URL of the authorization server.
• Audience - The configured intended recipient of the access token.
• TokenValidationParameters:
  • NameClaimType - The claim type that will be used to identify the user. Commonly preferred_username is used as claim type.
    The claim type must be identical to the claim type set in the ControlCenter appsettings.
• RequireHttpsMetadata - If true then HTTPS is required for the authority. The default is true. This should be disabled only in development environments.
