Create an application.conf for the Tiny Editors Services

Create a configuration file to define the settings for the Tiny Editors Services.

1. Using a text editor, create a new file named application.conf under the following directory:

   Path	Operating System
   /opt/ephox/application.conf	On Unix or Linux
   C:\opt\ephox\application.conf	On Windows: where C is the boot drive for your system.

   Note: Use a plain text editor to avoid inserting invalid formatting or symbols into application.conf. Do not use a rich text editor such as Microsoft Word for editing configuration files.

2. Add the ephox.allowed-origins.origins setting.

   Attention: The ephox.allowed-origins.origins setting is required. It must list all in-use names ( "protocol://host:port" ) for the HCL Connections™ server to allow the Tiny Editors to access the services without returning Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) errors.

   ephox {
     allowed-origins {
       origins = [
         "http://connections.example.com",
         "https://connections.example.com",
   
         "http://connections.example.com:9081",
         "https://connections.example.com:9444"
       ]
     }
   }

3. Add application.conf settings required for Link-checking and Media-embed.

4. Save the configuration to application.conf.

5. If the services have been deployed, stop and restart TinyEditorsServices to apply the configuration changes.
