Advance Setting

In the Advance Settings tab, you get additional features like:

Add additional emails

  • This feature allows you to add additional email addresses to receive alerts about module deactivation.
  • If the module is deactivated for any reason, the IdP services will stop, which may interrupt SSO. To avoid this inconvenience, deactivation alerts will be sent to the configured email addresses.
    Navigate to the Advance Settings → Add additional emails, enter the email addresses in the textbox.
    You can add multiple email addresses separated by a comma (,).

Import / Export Configuration

This feature helps you to transfer your module configurations when switching to a different Drupal instance. It ensures that all settings and preferences with your module are preserved and replicated in the new environment, saving time and effort during the migration process.

Usage Scenarios

  1. Changing Environments: The Import/Export Configurations feature is particularly useful when transitioning between different environments, such as from development to staging or staging to production. In such cases, kindly export the configuration prior to transferring the changes and import the configurations back afterward.
  2. Database Cloning: By exporting configurations from the staging site before cloning the database, users can ensure that the cloned site retains the desired configuration settings.
  3. Site Replication: The feature enables easy replication of site configurations across multiple instances, reducing the effort required for manual configuration setup.
  4. Module Reinstallation: This feature can be useful when reinstalling modules. Export configurations before uninstalling a module, and import them back after reinstalling to preserve previous settings and configurations.

Export Configuration

  • Navigate to the Advance Settings → Import/Export Configurations.

Import Configuration

  • Navigate to the Advance Settings → Import/Export Configurations.
