Specifying a configuration group for a client

When users start SyteLine, they are presented with a list of configuration names to select from. If you set up configuration groups through the Configuration Manager utility, then you can specify a group name as part of the client connection information:

  • If a client is using a WinStudio shortcut, you can specify the configuration group name using the -gconfig-group command line option. For example:

    WinStudio.exe -gAcme

  • If a client is connecting to the Configuration Server using HTTP, the configuration group can be specified as a query parameter in the URL. For example:

    http://slutil/IDORequestService/ConfigServer.aspx?ConfigGroup=Acme

  • If you are using XML to connect, you can specify the configuration group name as part of the GetConfigurations IDO request. For example:
    
    <IDORequest>
    <RequestHeader Type="GetConfigurations" ConfigGroup="Acme"/> 
    </IDORequest>
