BTSScnSSOApplicationConfig–Storing application configuration in BizTalk SSO

There are 2 tools that you use to manage your application data: SsoManage.exe and BTSScnSSOApplicationConfig.exe.

SsoManage.exe can be found at “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Enterprise Single Sign-On”

But for testProperty, you need to actually build it. Do this by browsing to “BT Server\MSI\Program Files\SDK\Scenarios\Common\SSOApplicationConfig\bin” folder (the folder is extracted when you unzip the Developer edition of BizTalk).

Once in the SSOApplicationConfig folder, run “Setup.Bat”, which will build “BTSScnSSOApplicationConfig.exe” for you.

Commands:

SsoManage:

SsoManage uses an xml file to define an application and a list of config properties. Here is an example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<sso>
    <application name="MyTestApp">
        <description>My first app</description>
        <appUserAccount>BizTalk Application Users</appUserAccount>
        <appAdminAccount>BizTalk Server Administrators</appAdminAccount>
        <field ordinal="0" label="dummyDoNotUseOrDelete" masked="no" />
        <field ordinal="1" label="testProperty" masked="no" />
        <flags configStoreApp="yes" allowLocalAccounts="yes" enableApp="yes" />
    </application>
</sso>

You import the XML using the SsoManage –CreateApp “xmlfile” command.

BTSScnSSOApplicationConfig:

And you set property values using:

btsscnssoapplicationconfig -set MyTestApp "ConfigProperties" "testProperty" "testConnectionString"

And you get property values using:

btsscnssoapplicationconfig -get MyTestApp "ConfigProperties" "testProperty"
