Setting the Administration Role

The administration role is set during installation but can be changed manually in the web.config file.

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlas Copco\ToolsNet. If the installation path was changed from default during the installation of ToolsNet 8, navigate to that path instead.

  2. Open appsettings.json in a text editor, for example, Notepad.

    The default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlas Copco\ToolsNet. If the default path was changed during installation of ToolsNet 8, use that path instead.

  3. In AuthenticationSetting, add the following line:

    Set value of Roles.Administrator parameter: SID

    Replace SID with an S-X-X-X, where X is an integer.

    SIDs are Windows Security Identifiers that are used to uniquely identify a security principal or security group.

    If Windows Integrated Authentication fails with an SID error, set the Roles.Administrator parameter value to Domain\GroupName and restart the IIS service from Service Manager.

  4. In AuthenticationSetting, add the following line:

    Set value of Mode parameter: Windows

  5. Save the file.
