Chapter 8. Configuring a KIE Server to connect to Business Central

Procedure

1. In your Red Hat Process Automation Manager installation directory, navigate to the standalone-full.xml file. For example, if you use a Red Hat JBoss EAP installation for Red Hat Process Automation Manager, go to $EAP_HOME/standalone/configuration/standalone-full.xml.

2. Open standalone-full.xml and under the <system-properties> tag, set the following properties:

   • org.kie.server.controller.user: The user name of a user who can log in to the Business Central.
   • org.kie.server.controller.pwd: The password of the user who can log in to the Business Central.
   • org.kie.server.controller: The URL for connecting to the API of Business Central. Normally, the URL is http://<centralhost>:<centralport>/business-central/rest/controller, where <centralhost> and <centralport> are the host name and port for Business Central. If Business Central is deployed on OpenShift, remove business-central/ from the URL.
   • org.kie.server.location: The URL for connecting to the API of KIE Server. Normally, the URL is http://<serverhost>:<serverport>/kie-server/services/rest/server, where <serverhost> and <serverport> are the host name and port for KIE Server.
   • org.kie.server.id: The name of a server configuration. If this server configuration does not exist in Business Central, it is created automatically when KIE Server connects to Business Central.

   Example:

   <property name="org.kie.server.controller.user" value="central_user"/>
   <property name="org.kie.server.controller.pwd" value="central_password"/>
   <property name="org.kie.server.controller" value="http://central.example.com:8080/business-central/rest/controller"/>
   <property name="org.kie.server.location" value="http://kieserver.example.com:8080/kie-server/services/rest/server"/>
   <property name="org.kie.server.id" value="production-servers"/>

3. Start or restart the KIE Server.
