Supporting files

Some connection settings require additional files (certificate and key files) to be provided to the gateway. Those files can be provided the same way as the configuration file by packing them into a .zip archive and applying them via the apply configuration mechanism.

The name of the files do not matter in this case, but the user is responsible to avoid naming conflicts with files that have already been loaded into the gateway. Supporting files can be created in the same folder (archive) as the configuration file, or can be placed in subfolders (or nested subfolders). Important is that in the relevant parameter in config.json, the path to the file is given relative to the root of the archive (= relative to the config.json file).

For details on the parameters refer to the relevant sections in Configuration File and for details on packaging and deploying the files together with config.json refer to the Configuration Deployment.
