The Path-Password method involves storing the certificate locally and referencing the path and password in the appsettings.json file. To configure remote access using HTTPS and the Path-Password method for the SSL Certificate:
- Locate the appsettings.json file. In a default installation, this file is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Hyland\Services\Diagnostics.
-
Open the configuration file in a plain-text editor, such as Notepad.
Note:
The *.config file should only be edited in a plain-text editor, such as Notepad, or a utility specifically designed to edit XML files. It should not be edited in a binary editor, such as Microsoft Word. Using a binary editor can introduce invalid characters to the file and make it unreadable by the software.
- Locate the "Urls" element.
- To enable remote access, set the element to "https://0.0.0.0:8989"
-
On the next line, add the following:
-
"Certificates": {
"Path": "C:\\Shared\\localhost.pfx",
"Password": "password",
"AllowInvalid": "true"
}
-
"Certificates": {
- Replace "C:\\Shared\\localhost.pfx" with the path for the certificate contained in quotation marks (").
- Replace "password" with the password for the certificate contained in quotation marks (").
- Save and close the configuration file.
-
Restart the Diagnostics Service for the changes to take effect.
Note:
Each remote Diagnostics Service you need to collect data from must be enabled for remote access.
