Data Folders and Settings

Copy the Perceptor Website runtime files that have been provided to you from your Reseller and copy them to a folder on the same PC as the IIS installation. It is advised to copy the files into a folder under your "C:\" drive.

From this location open apssettings.json and enter the correct data for your domain, tenant id, client id and user id. A demo example is attached below:
