Cloud storage configurations are stored in the BarTender System Database. Because of this, deploying integrations containing cloud storage options to remote computers requires that the target server must be connected to the same BarTender System Database instance as is the computer from which you are deploying the integration. |
The Cloud Storage page, accessed by expanding the Integrations node of Administration Console and clicking Cloud Storage, allows you to connect to one or more cloud locations, making the data stored in these locations accessible to your integrations and their actions.
The Cloud Storage page consists of the Locations pane, where you view and select the cloud locations that you have already added, and the Properties pane, where you can configure the properties for the cloud location currently selected in the Locations pane.
