Use the following procedure to configure IDOL Data Admin after installation.
To configure IDOL Data Admin
Run IDOL Data Admin once without a config.json
file in your IDOL Data Admin home directory. When it runs the first time, IDOL Data Admin generates a default configuration file.
By default, the installer stores the IDA home directory in the ProgramData
folder, which might be hidden by default in Windows.
Open the generated config.json
file in a text editor and find the generated default user name and password (login.defaultLogin.username
and login.defaultLogin.password
).
In your web browser, go to http://Hostname:Port
, where Hostname
is the IP address or name of the machine on which IDOL Data Admin is installed, and Port
is the port that you have installed IDOL Data Admin on (for example, 8080
).
Log in using the default user name and password from the configuration file.
The Settings page opens.
Fill in the details of your backend IDOL components. Click Test Connection for each server to confirm that a connection can be established from the IDOL Data Admin server.
You might need different components depending on whether you want to set up and use Search Optimizer, Answer Bank, or both. For the list of required components, see Required IDOL Components.
(Optional) In the Search Engine section, set a URL to use to send queries to an external search engine. This search engine is used by the Answer Bank user interface when a user uses the Search Web options.
Click Save Changes.
In the setup wizard, click Next. The User Management page opens.
Add your users, and then use the credentials for one of those users to log into the application. See User Roles.
IDOL Data Admin is now ready for use.
Users with the Administrator role can use the User Management and Settings pages to change the application configuration settings.
