For more information on WebView2 requirements for the OnBase Web Viewer COM integration, seeInstalling the Web Viewer.

To enable browser developer tools:

  1. Locate the OBEpicWebViewer.dll.config file. In a default installation, this is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Hyland\Integration for Epic\Web Viewer.
  2. Open the OBEpicWebViewer.dll.config 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.

  3. Locate the webViewDevToolsEnabled setting within the <OBEpicWebViewer> element.
  4. Update the value attribute to true. For example: 
    <webViewDevToolsEnabled value="true" />
  5. Configure the following settings within the <OBEpicWebViewer> element, as needed:
    Setting Description
    webViewMessageTimeout

    Update the value attribute with the desired number of seconds the application should wait for a response after posting a command to the API on the OnBase Web Client before canceling and sending an error. For example:

    <webViewMessageTimeout value="xx" />

    Where xx is the number of seconds. By default, the number of seconds is set to 10.

    Note: The maximum value respected for the webViewMessageTimeout setting is 299.
    displayDocumentTimeout

    Update the value attribute with the desired number of seconds the application should wait before canceling and sending an error when attempting to view a document in the OnBase Web Viewer. For example:

    <displayDocumentTimeout value="xx" />

    Where xx is the number of seconds. By default, the number of seconds is set to 30.

    Note: The maximum value respected for the displayDocumentTimeout setting is 299.
  6. Save the OBEpicWebViewer.dll.config file.
