Other Configuration Touch Points

Some of the settings required are contained in the corresponding app.config and web.config files. There are some settings stored in the database that can be modified through the Anthology Student application.

The Connection Strings for the database are found in the app.config and web.config files. This applies to Security Web site, API Web site,  and Windows Service. The client notification Web service might need a connection string to the client’s database, but this is outside the scope of this topic.

The Windows service app.config file contains the following settings:

  1. Polling intervals for the service timers.

    • NotificationIntervalMilliseconds
    • DeleteIntervalMilliseconds
    • ResendIntervalMilliseconds

  2. Timestamp gap between records.

    • DeleteNotificationsAfterMinutes
    • ResendNotificationsAfterMinutes

  3. The setting named WindowsService_LmsNotifications_WebServices_NotificationWebService is only a placeholder and should be ignored.

    The actual URL used to contact the client notification Web service is kept in the database and configured through Setup > Academic Records > LMS > Edit (see Navigate to Setup > Academic Records > LMS > Edit.).
