CSE defines a configuration mechanism that is irrelevant to development frameworks. A configuration item consists of a key, label, and value. The label is used to identify whether a configuration item belongs to global configuration or microservice configuration. The label can also indicate the value type.

You can refer to the following table to select the operations to be performed.

Operation	Description
Creating an Application-Level Configuration	Associates the new configuration with an application, and adds the application name and environment label.
Creating a Microservice-Level Configuration	Associates the new configuration with a microservice, and adds the microservice name, application name, and environment.
Creating a Customized Configuration Item	If application-level and microservice-level configurations cannot meet service requirements, you can customize configuration files.
Importing Configurations	Imports the local configuration file.
Exporting Configurations	Exports the selected configuration file to the local host.
Comparing Configuration Versions	Compares differences between historical versions.
Rolling Back a Version	Rolls back to the selected historical version.
Viewing Historical Versions	Displays configurations of different historical versions.
Editing a Configuration Item	Edits a configuration item.
Disabling a Configuration Item	Disables a configuration item.
Deleting a Configuration Item	Deletes a configuration item.

NOTE:

When the configuration item quota specified by the engine specifications is about to be used up, the engine allows new configuration items that exceed the remaining quota to be created at the same time to ensure availability. Expand the capacity of the engine as soon as possible to prevent configuration creation failures.

Creating an Application-Level Configuration

Log in to ServiceStage and choose Cloud Service Engine > Engines.
Select the microservice engine where the application has been deployed but is to be governed from the Microservice Engine drop-down list in the upper part of the page.
Click Configuration Management.
- For microservice engines with security authentication disabled, go to 5.
- For microservice engines with security authentication enabled, go to 4.
In the displayed Security Authentication dialog box, enter the account name and password, and click OK.
NOTE:
- If you connect to the microservice engine for the first time, enter the account name root and the password entered when creating the microservice engine.
- For details about how to create an account, see Adding an Account.

Click Create Configuration Item and set parameters based on the following table. Parameters marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.

Parameter	Description
*Configuration Item	Enter a configuration item. The configuration item is the global ID of the configuration. In the coding phase, the configuration item is used to index and operate the configuration. You are advised to use the Java package naming rule (for example, cse.service.registry.address) to ensure the readability and uniqueness of the configuration.
Configuration Range	Select Application-level.
*Application	Select or enter an application name. Select an environment.
Configuration Format	Select a configuration format.
*Configuration Content	Enter the configuration content.
Enable Configuration	Determine whether to enable the configuration item. Enable now: The configuration item takes effect immediately once created. Not Enabled: The configuration item does not take effect.

Click Create Now to enable the configuration item.
