  6. Open the settings.json file.

    {
        "__comment__": "---- CLOUD? / GATEWAY? / HANA? ----",     
        "cloud":                                 "",     
        "multibackend":                          "",     
        "hana":                                  "", 
    
        "__comment__": "---- GATEWAY-SETTINGS ----",     
        "nwgw": {     
                "nwgw_host":                     "",
...

  7. Set the basic parametric values.

    For information on the parametric values to be specified for the basic settings, see Overview of the basic settings for the xSuite Apps.

    Caution

    If a gateway is to be used, always specify values for the parameter  nwgw > nwgw_target, since no default values exist.

    For lack of a default value, whenever one of the two viewers is used, a value must be set for the parameter busSettings > _default_ > _default_ > uri. Otherwise, use of the Viewer must be deactivated.

  8. Set additional parametric values if needed.

    For information on which parametric values are available, see Appendix A, "settings.json" parameters for the xSuite Apps.

  9. Save.
