Before creating an auto-generated configuration file, the provisioning process must be completed. Once provisioning is finished, the floating server will appear in the Floating Servers list and can then be used to generate the configuration file.
To create a configuration file for a floating server, the setup must be completed through the vendor platform. This process ensures that all required parameters are properly captured and reduces the risk of misconfiguration. Follow the steps below to generate the configuration file and download both the .YAML file and the Certificate Chain.
1
Access the Vendor Platform
Navigate to the vendor platform and go to the Licenses section.

Select Floating Servers
Click on Floating Servers. After completing the provisioning process, all floating servers will be listed below. Click on the desired floating server from the list.

Create/Edit Configuration File
On the Floating Server details page, click Create/Edit Config File. A popup window will appear where you can select the database type. Complete all required fields based on your configuration.
See the screenshots below for examples.
In the popup window, the Database Type dropdown provides two options:
SQLite
PostgreSQL
Examples for each option:
The required fields in the configuration popup may differ depending on whether SQLite or PostgreSQL is selected. For details on the specific values needed, refer to Configuration & Provisioning.
