General configuration

After installing Connections Engagement Center you will see a configuration page. Here you can set up Connections Engagement Center configurations in your browser. If you want to make changes later, you can open the configuration page manually at https://<your_server>/xcc/admin and edit your settings.

Step	Instructions
1	Context-Roots: First make sure to save the Connections Context Roots by clicking the save Button in the lower right corner. You will be redirected to the Connections Engagement Center-Page where you can enter a license key. If you are not being redirected, please open the Connections Engagement Center-Page (https://<your_server>/xcc/main) manually and enter your license key.
2	Customization Path: Navigate to the Admin Dashboard (https://<your_server>/xcc/admin). Please navigate to Connections Environment via the navigation on the left side.

Select one of three options: Daily, weekly or monthly to set up the backup schedule respectively. By default, automatic backup is disabled for the Connections Engagement Center application.
