About this task
Important: Save your changes whenever you are confident of the
changes and before you leave the Config data tab.
- When you create an application, the system auto-generates an empty vars folder in each of the three top-level folders: component, collection, and deployable.
- When you add a collection or deployable, the system adds an empty vars folder to the item that you created.
- A vars folder can contain only variable CDIs or folders. Any subfolder can contain only variables or folders.
- The value of a variable in a collection overrides the value of the variable in a component.
- The value of a variable in a deployable overrides the value of the variable in a collection or component.
