Customizing an ACP server
For an ACP server, there are some optional configuration settings.
The acpConfig.json file
- For those with an ACP Server license, some configuration settings can be set with switches in
acpconfig.json, located in theACP\ui\build\directory.
Authentication
"authenticationMethod": "firebase", or authenticationMethod": "apacheWindows". Usually you would not change this.
Enable/disable Email Invites
"emailInvitesEnabled": "yes", "emailInvitesEnabled": "no". On an Acp Server using Apache authentication the Email Invite button is hidden by default. If the server has access to the internet and to email, this can be enabled.
Hide/Show the sign out Menu
With apache authentication, don't show the sign out option because it doesn't work (you don't sign in to ACP - rather you sign in to Apache).
"showSignOutMenuItems": "yes", "showSignOutMenuItems": "no".
File uploading
- For those with an ACP Server license, the permissible upload file types can be set by editing the list in
ACP\ui\build\acpConfig.json. For instance, if you need to use spreadsheets with Macros you could add*.xlsmto the list. - The default following file types can be uploaded from the GUI - applies to Lumina's pubic ACP server at [1].
*.ana, *.xlsx, *.xls, *.txt and *.csv
Table cell truncation
- ACP will only show this number of cells in a table - to speed up the rendering time for the table. If you have an ACP Server, you can
edit this line in the file. If you set the number to -1 and the table truncation will be disabled.
"EW1461_max_num_table_cells": 5000, // the value is the number of cells to display (or minus one to turn off this feature)
