The Settings section of the Administration component in Jedox Web enables administrators to modify various Jedox Web settings, and add / delete new settings for their Jedox environment:
Customizing Logo, Icon, and Background
You can customize the logo, icon, and background color in the Settings section. The custom logo or icon replaces the "Jedox" logo or icon on the login screen and on the top-left corner of the end-user mode. Both SVG and PNG images are supported. The custom background color changes the default background color on the login screen
General settings
The General Settings contains different sections.
Studio: define the default storage path and a storage banner.
spreadsheet: define the cache for the initial viewport and the color palette for new charts. You can also enable/ disable the In-Memory DB Undo and Static Windows mode..
To define the SMTP server for sending emails and notifications for versions 24.1 and earlier see Email Configuration in Jedox Web.
Collaboration: disable or enable the comments panel for all File Manager and Report Manager items.
Integrator (ETL): set the cube bulk size for cube loads.
Canvas devices: add / delete or activate / deactivate the Canvas devices shown in the responsive display preview.
User settings and Start page shortcuts: configure the default user settings and start page shortcuts on global (server-wide) level. A user can inherit the default value from group user settings, and the group can inherit the default value from this new global setting.
Feature flags: choose between different feature flags. Feature flags allow the Jedox administrator to easily turn specific features on or off without manually entering a new key.
Modeler: define the default save path of the OLAP backup in Modeler in this section.
Scheduler: define the default save path of the OLAP backup in Scheduler in this section.
Adding setting keys
You can also add keys to the setting. To add a new key, first select the scope (1) of the key which you want to add, then click the Add key button in the toolbar. You can create keys for the Global scope, or for one of the installed Models. You should assign a type, such as string, integer, etc for each key. The type is used to validate the input for the value of the settings key. Values of type "password" will be encrypted.
If you want to edit a key value or to delete a key, you can use the search field (3) to find the key.
Here are two of the setting keys that can be added, deleted, or changed:
| setting keys | Setting Type | Description |
| tasks.smtp.allow_spoofing | Boolean | Enables sending email on behalf of someone else, particularly in an automated process, e.g. for a workflow process. |
| tasks.smtp.timeout | Integer | Enables defining a configurable timeout period (in milliseconds) for contacting the SMTP server when sending emails. The default value is 10 minutes. |
| studio.files.dbscript_max_editing_size | Integer | Enables increasing the value of maximum allowed size for editing a database script in Jedox Web. |
| integrator.proxy.timeout | Integer | Sets the request timeout value (in seconds) for the Integrator UI. Default is 30 seconds. |
| spreadsheet.widget.print_quality_factor | Float | Defines the print quality of widgets in PDFs. |
| olap.subset_preview_limit | Integer | Changes the default size limit for the preview in Subset Editor. |
| report.link.prevent_credentials | Boolean | Enables the administrators to toggle the Include credentials option off or on. |
Custom settings created in the Settings section can be fetched in Reports by using the spreadsheet function CONFIG.GET().
