The P6 Integration API Database Configuration wizard lets you create a new configuration or switch to a different configuration than the one specified during the P6 Integration API installation.
The database you connect to during the installation stores one or more P6 Integration API configurations. Each configuration specifies a set of configurable parameters that determine how the P6 Integration API operates. If no configuration exists in the database the first time you install the P6 Integration API, you must create a new configuration. For subsequent configurations, you can select an existing configuration or create a new one. After configuration, you can use the Database Configuration wizard to select a different P6 Integration API configuration or create a new one.
Note: After selecting a different P6 Integration API configuration or creating a new configuration, you must stop and restart the server for the changes to take effect.
