Managing Configuration Files
You can upload files for use with your configurations. These can be public files or private files.
- Private Files can be created, edited, or deleted by the logged–in user. These files are visible to administrators.
- Public Files can be seen and accessed by any user. They can be created, edited, or deleted only by an administrator.
For details about the different file types that you may need for execution, refer to the DataConnect and DataFlow documentation.
