Configure Advanced Options

You can set several advanced options using the Console.

About Advanced Configuration

Administrators can set more advanced, service-level options through the Systems Settings page.

Email Delivered by Agents Options

You can use these options to customize the way agents deliver email.

System Setting More Information
Maximum Email Size (KB)

Specifies the maximum size (KB) of a single email.

If you set a maximum email size, you can avoid situations when SMTP servers reject emails that are too large, and in the event that an email exceeds the set limit, the email recipients receive an error message instead of the agent failing and just alerting the email author.

Valid Values: 0-20480

Default: 0 (unlimited email size)

API Key: EmailMaxEmailSizeKB

Edition: Enterprise only

Maximum Number of Recipients per Email

Specifies the maximum number of recipients allowed in the To: or Bcc: line for a single email.

You can set the maximum number of email recipients to avoid some SMTP servers from filtering out these emails as spam. If the recipient list exceeds the set limit, the list is split into smaller lists with the maximum number of allowed recipients in each list.

Valid Values: 0-1024

Default: 0 (unlimited number of email recipients)

API Key: EmailMaxRecipients

Edition: Enterprise only

Safe Domains

If you want to restrict the email domain that Oracle Analytics can send emails to, enter the name of the domain. For example, examplemaildomain.com.

Use a comma to separate multiple domain names. For example, exampledomain1.com,exampledomain2.com. By default, there are no restrictions.

Allow HTML/JavaScript/CSS Content

Determines whether users can apply and save HTML, JavaScript, and CSS markup in various text fields for analyses and dashboards, and how any previously saved markup is used.

  • Always — Enables users to apply markup. Displays the Contains HTML/JavaScript/CSS Markup option in dialogs where additional formatting might be useful. For example:
