This guide shows how to work with the global workspace settings
Prerequisites:
Logged on as an administrator to https://accsyn.io/admin/settings.
Contents:
Change the name of the workspace.
Note: Pages needs to be reloaded and desktop app needs to be restarted for changes to take effect in UIs.
Code
The unique API identifier of workspace, as generated from the initial name chosen. This is also the same as the REST domain / hostname, e.g. https://<workspace code>.accsyn.com/api/v3
Note: Changing the code is an operation that only can be performed by the accsyn Support team.
The images to use for branding, in light and dark mode variants. They are chosen from resources, and needs to be uploaded here in advance: https://accsyn.io/admin/resources
Note: logotype images will be scaled down to fit 140x40px which is the default accsyn logotype dimensions, make sure your imagery looks decent in this format.
Require multi factor authentication before workspace can be accessed. When applied, different scenarios plays out at login depending auth provider:
accsyn-email-password; accsyn will perform an MFA prompt sequence using method below before workspace can be accessed.
accsyn-email-password - MFA enrolled; The user will be requested to enter the code displayed in their authenticator app at login.
External identity provider (Google); User should setup (enroll) MFA with their provider before they access the workspace, if not enrolled yet accsyn will perform an MFA prompt sequence using method below before they can access the workspace.
External identity provider (Google) - MFA enrolled; User is already MFA authenticated when entering the workspace, no further actions will be required.
accsyn will check if the user is MFA authenticated from login. If not, the method described below will be used to authenticate - default by an code sent to user with an email message.
Method
The method to use to authenticate, if not alread MFA authenticated at login.
The default method is email - a six(6) digit code is sent by email to user and needs to be entered in the browser or app before login can be concluded.
Enforce for all roles
Require MFA for all users.
Enforce for administrators
Require MFA for users having the elevated administrator base role.
Enforce for employees
Require MFA for users having the elevated employee/operator base role.
Enforce for standard users
Require MFA for standard non elevated users.
Always create directories on volume when creating a Shared folder or Home share.
Automatically create a Home share for new users when they are created/invited.
The directory where Home shares are created at the default volume. Must be a relative path.
Enable volume cache - store directory structure in accsyn cache for fast retrieval / offline listings.
When listing files on a volume with the desktop app, the cached results will first be retrieved followed by the actual listing by the server that also updates the cache afterwards.
Advanced storage settings, see accsyn Internal settings for details.
What to do when a file is missing at the sending party of a transfer job.
The policy to use for interrupting transfer jobs below in the queue, by default accsyn interrupts active job with lower priority or below in queue.
Note: The transfer settings below can be overriden on volume, queue and job level.
Maximum number of time accsyn should retry a transfer until it is considered as failed.
How long accsyn should wait, upon a failed transfer, before retrying.
Enable file uploads to the workspace globally.
Enable file downloads from the workspace globally.
Note: The transfer settings below can be overriden on volume, queue and job level.
The transfer speed limit to apply globally on all transfer, in MB/s (Megabytes per second).
The encryption to apply during file transfers, protecting your data from insight during Internet transport. Note that encryption will be turned off by default if override IP:s are involved (client config) - transfer are assumed going over local LAN/encrypted VPN.
The algorithm accsyn should use during file transfers - copy or sync (delete files at the remote end not existing at sender side).
The methods accsyn should use determine if a file is out of sync and needs to be transferred.
File size, in megabytes (MB), at which single file resume ('transfer_resume') should start to apply. Files below this limit in size, will never be resumed if interrupted midst transfer.
Giving a value of -1 means that no limits should apply - limits disabled.
Have accsyn preserve ownership and/or permissions of files during transfer. This only works when the two endpoints are running on a POSIX(Linux,Mac) based operating system, it will have no effect if any party is running Windows.
Define how many concurrent transfers server will allow for each remote client. A high value here could put high load on your network infrastructure and is only a benefit if you alternate between many quick simultaneous jobs, for example continously adding tasks to jobs using API:s. Can be overridden at clients.
What accsyn should log during transfer. The transfer log is stored per-task and can be retreived by double-clicking a task in accsyn desktop app.
Advanced transfer settings, see accsyn Internal settings for details.
Note: The email settings can be overridden on volume and queue level
accsyn dispatches email notifications on when different event occur. This settings page is divided in two parts:
Overall global settings.
Per-event settings
Enable
Enable or disable email notifications globally.
Default recipients
Who to include by default when accsyn sends emails in general, not related to an event below. This are overridden by specific event recipients (see below).
Built-in; The default recipients as built into accsyn (role or explicit user)
Additional; Add more recipients here as needed, by clicking the ADD button. Roles, users and explicit external email recipients can be chosen.
Global exclude:
What roles, users and email addresses to exclude globally. This applies to all email sent, including event specific ones.
Reply-to
The reply to address to set for all emails.
Define the recipients that will get email about issues that are detected within the accsyn platform.
Define the recipients that will get email when a new client (desktop app, user server or general server) is registered somewhere.
Define the recipients that will get email when a job is submitted.
Define the recipients that will get email when a job fails
Define the recipients that will get email when a user is invited/created.
Currently not used.
See Hooks documentation.
In general, refer to Render farm documentation.
Enable or disable compute(render) feature for workspace.
How to act when a compute task fails:
enable-clear-on-resume (default) - avoid the compute node but clear when job is retried/resumed
enable-permanent - avoid the compute node permanently
disable - do not avoid the compute node
See Queue interrupt policy above.
Define server pools, that can be targeted in different ways during job submission.
Define global workspace metadata, these are passed on to hooks and compute jobs. Metadata can be defined on most accsyn entitites such as shares, queues and so on.
Internal; this metadata will not be exposed to hooks that execute client side, unless it is an elevated (admin/employee) user client.
External; this metadata will be exposed to hooks that execute client (remote user) side also for standard users.
