Administration

On the Administration page, you can create and restore Kapplets backup files, restore a legacy Kapplets backup file, and provide an OAuth client secret. These tabs are available only for administrators.

Backup

Use this tab to create and restore Kapplets backup files. You can restore backup files created with version 11.3.0 and later. To create a backup, click the Create backup button. A zipped backup file is created automatically on your computer. The backup contains Kapplets, templates, schedules, users and groups, and workspaces, but it does not contain Kapplets history.

Click Select a file to restore a backup from your computer. As you click it, a new window with previously saved backup files appears, where you can select and open the one you need.

Legacy backup

Use this tab to restore backup files created with legacy versions of Kapplets (versions before and including 10.7.0). Backup files created with versions 11.0.0, 11.1.0, and 11.2.0 can only be restored from a database (see "Restore Kapplets from database" below).

To restore a backup on this tab, click Select a file and select the Management Console backup containing classic (legacy) Kapplets that you want to restore.

Users will be moved to Kapplets within their user groups. These user groups and users get no privileges, until these privileges are assigned by the global administrator.

Objects from the Management Console backup will be moved to Kapplets in the following way:

Management Console backup objects

Kapplets objects

Project

Workspace

Master Kapplet

Template

Installed Kapplet

Kapplet marked as "favorite"

Restore Kapplets from database

You can restore Kapplets from your database. To do so, the database URL must be configured in the kapplets.xml file. For an example kapplets.xml file, see Install Kapplets > Tomcat Server Installation in the Kofax RPA Installation Guide.

Kapplets do not support restoring the following fields: Session, Country, Currency, and Language.

OAuth Client Secret

Use this tab to enter the OAuth Client Secret. The client secret is used to authenticate Kapplets users with Management Console and provides additional security.

The client secret must match that specified in the Management Console and can be copied from the OAuth Server section of the Management Console.

If the secret token is not provided or changed in the Management Console, no data will be transferred from the Management Console into Kapplets until the administrator manually copies and pastes the (new) token into Kapplets, which can be done either on this tab or in the dedicated field at login.
