Overriding properties in the platform.yaml file

You can use a custom YAML file to override the property values in the
platform.yaml
file.
The
platform.yaml
file is a configuration file that the Process Server uses to get the configuration details related to
Application Integration
and communicate with the Secure Agent services.
You can override the property values in the
platform.yaml
file available on the Secure Agent by using a custom
user-platform.yaml
. To override the values, create a copy of the
platform.yaml
file with the required properties and their custom values, name the file as
user-platform.yaml
, and save it in the following directory:
<Secure Agent installation directory>\apps\process-engine\conf
When the Process Server is up and running, if a property is specified in the
user-platform.yaml
file, the Process Server uses that specific value. Otherwise, the Process Server uses the values defined in the
platform.yaml
file.
When the Secure Agent is upgraded to a new version, the properties in the
user-platform.yaml
file are unchanged.
For more information about configuring custom values for properties in the
platform.yaml
file, see
Secure Agent Services
.

Serverless runtime environment

You can use serverless runtime environments configured in Azure Native ISV Services.
For a list of connectors that can use Azure serverless runtime environments, see
Runtime environments
.

OS Profiles

You can use operating system (OS) profiles to impersonate another user to run tasks with operating system users who differ from the Secure Agent user.
For more information, see "Data Integration Server Properties" in
Secure Agent Services
.
