# WebClient Administrator's Guide

This section contains advanced guides for the configuration and administration of a migration-center WebClient.

## Changing application.properties

There are parameters in the application.properties file that can change the WebClient's behavior.\
This file can be found under the following folder in the Tomcat where the WebClient was installed:\
`\webapps\mc-rest-api\WEB-INF\classes`

After changing a parameter, restart the WebClient service and refresh the WebClient browser pages.

### Restricted Mode (pwd.restricted-mode)

When the WebClient runs in **Restricted mode** any edit to a scanner's or importer's parameters will clear any password parameters that importer has. The same happens when copying an existing scanner or importer, all password fields are cleared. 

This feature is useful in environments where the person executing the migration jobs should not be able to modify existing jobs without having to re-enter the password for connecting to that source or target system. 

To enable Restricted Mode you need to set the property `pwd.restricted-mode` to `true`.

Access to the **application.properties** file should be **limited** to prevent anyone without permission turning off Restricted Mode. 

### CSV export - custom multivalue separator

You can change the default separator for multi-value attributes when exporting objects to CSV, from the default `;` to any character or set of characters.

Set the new separator to the `export.csv.inner-separator` property.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.migration-center.com/26.2/webclient-administrators-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
