project design set connector externally (as a app.config)

Q&A
1

I’m beginner with Bonita Studio 5.6.3 and I created some jobs where I have email connector configured. the project is working and deployed, but email settings change (password, host …), I have to open and change the project design or there is some “app.config” I can set externally?

…in Portuguese…

You can create a groovy connector that reads the configuration from a file or a database table. Or you can create your own connector to get config data from wherever you want (my approach).

That’s a good solution for version 5 of Bonita.

Note that in version 6 subscription edition you can use “parameters” in your connector configuration in order to adjust configuration after process definition deployment.
