Used to determine whether a "Can't access" link is displayed on the login screen. By default this is set to "false" and the link is not displayed. Change this value to "true" to enable the link. This link enables a user who is not able to log in (for example because they have forgotten their login credentials or if they have not yet been granted access) to send an email to the dashboard administrator requesting access:

See Lost password and request access configuration for more information about how to modify the template emails that are sent out when a user uses this option.

When set to true (default position), this option will force a log out warning dialog box to be displayed when a user selects the log out button:

If you would like to deactivate this confirmation message, simply change:

"confirmLogout": true,

to:

"confirmLogout": false,

When set to true only Business Criteria that are categorised as Health Measures will be displayed in the dashboard. All other Business Criteria that are NOT Health Factors will not be displayed:

When in false position (default position), it will force the display of ALL Business Criteria whether they are categorised as Health Factors or not:

The violationsCount parameter is taken into account when listing violations in various parts of the dashboard. The default value of 5000 is the upper maximum  number of violations that can be displayed. If the number of violations exceeds this value then the "All" option (shown below) is deactivated - this is to prevent a performance hit in the dashboard when a large number of violations exist.

Changing the value will change the upper maximum - i.e. if you are experiencing performance issues when you have many violations to list via the "All" button, then you should reduce the default value.

By default the dashboard will listen for GET or POST requests and when none are detected a timeout will occur. When the timeout occurs a dialog box will be displayed - this indicates (in the upper right corner) how many seconds are remaining before a re-login will be required - the default remaining seconds is set to 10. Clicking Continue will return to the session without requiring a login.

To change the remaining seconds, add the following parameter to the file, where xx = the number of seconds:

"alertTimeoutInterval":xx,

For example, 30 seconds has been defined:

  "configuration": {
    "defaultLanguage": "English",
    "description": "To configure new language for application, define customLanguages as [{'label': 'languageName', 'value': 'localeFolderName'}]",
    "customLanguages": [],
    "requestAccess": false,
    "confirmLogout": true,
    "filterHealthFactor": false,
    "violationsCount" : 5000,
	"alertTimeoutInterval":30,

The "tag" section governs the"priorities" used when adding a violation to the Action Plan (see Engineering Dashboard - Action Plan). By default, when adding a violation to the Action Plan, the following dialog box is displayed:

It enables you to select one of four default "priorities" for the violations (Extreme, High, Moderate, Low). These priorities, the "Select a priority" text "placeholder" and the "tagType" can all be customized, for example:

Use the ruleTag option to configure a list of tags (custom tags or tags provided by the Quality Standards Mapping extension) that can be displayed in a drop down filter in the Risk Investigation view:

Use the following configuration:

"ruleTag": ["tag","tag"],

For example, the following configuration adds two tags (OWASP and CWE):

{
	"description": "used as a placeholder for as much as possible relevant default application parameters, please do not edit manually",
	"configuration": {
		"defaultLanguage": "English",
		"description": "To configure new language for application, define customLanguages as [{'label': 'languageName', 'value': 'localeFolderName'}]",
		"customLanguages": [],
		"requestAccess": false,
		"confirmLogout": true,
		"filterHealthFactor": false,
		"violationsCount": 5000,
		"ruleTag": ["OWASP", "CWE"],
