Set web application properties for VWService

Use this option to define custom web applications and to specify the server base URL for web applications for the VWService. You can also specify one of the web applications as the default that email notifications refer to, and define the launch and step processor URL templates for each web application.

The system uses this information to determine:

  • The email notification template to use for workflows processed in the VWService.
  • The location of a custom step processor if it is not deployed to the current web application. The server base URL is one piece of the information required to build the location based on the URL template.

TIP You can override the VWService-wide web application properties for a specific isolated region. See Set isolated region web application properties for more information.
