The dashboard viewer in the OnBase Web Client can be configured to change the display theme and allow for data exports from dashboards. Web Client configuration can be done by directly editing the web.config file of the Web Client.

To configure the dashboard viewer in the Web Client:

  1. Locate the web.config file for the Web Server. In a default installation, the web.config file is located at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\AppNet\.
  2. Open the web.config file in a plain-text editor, such as Notepad. Do not open the config file in a binary-text editor, such as Microsoft Word. Binary-text editors can introduce invalid characters to the configuration file that can cause unexpected errors when users attempt to use the Web Client.
    Note:

    If Windows UAC is enabled, the plain-text editor must be launched with elevated administrator privileges in order to edit the config file. To enable editing, right-click the text editor executable or a shortcut to it and select Run as administrator.

  3. Locate the Hyland.Web.DashboardViewer element in the web.config file and change the items in the following table to reflect your configuration settings.

  4. Save and close the web.config file.
    Note:

    Changes to the configuration of the Web Client may require an IIS reset to take effect.
