SMTP configuration settings
View statistics for your overall deployment and specific teams as well as access server logs by going to System Console > Reporting.
Tip
Each configuration value below includes a JSON path to access the value programmatically in the config.json
file using a JSON-aware tool. For example, the SiteURL
value is under ServiceSettings
.
If using a tool such as jq, you’d enter:
cat config/config.json | jq '.ServiceSettings.SiteURL'
When working with the
config.json
file manually, look for the keyServiceSettings
, then within that object, find the keySiteURL
.
