Standalone Mode
In its nominal version, UAS is designed to work with SSP. But it is possible to operate it in an environment without SSP: it is the standalone mode. This allows it to be used by earlier version of Hopex, or even independently of Hopex.
To do so, you must declare in the appsettings section of UAS web.config file :
<add key="ConfigurationMode" value="Standalone" />
In this mode, the configuration necessary for the proper operation of UAS is retrieved from a config.json file which must be located in the UAS bin folder.
In case the Hopex provider is activated in the standalone mode, you must also add two additional keys:
the URL to access the API for recovering old version environments:<add key="HopexApiUrl" value="http://my-server/hopexapi/restapi/v1" />
the URL to call in case of a forgotten password, if the mega authentication provider is used<add key="ForgetPasswordUrl" value="http://my-server/hopex/account.aspx />
In addition, the options that are normally retrieved from the SSP are read from the configuration file. These are not used by UAS but can be used by custom providers.
