By default, when you have email notifications set up for
alerts or jobs, the Data Studio web console sends
email messages with an address in the From field
that is generated from the host name or IP address of the system where
the Data Studio web console is installed.
You can explicitly set the sender address by editing the dswebserver.properties file.
About this task
Some SMTP server configurations require that the address
in the From field of email messages be permitted
to send messages from the server. If your SMTP server has such a requirement
and you cannot authorize the address that the Data Studio web console server uses,
you can explicitly set the address that the Data Studio web console puts in the From field
of email messages.
Note: The user authentication settings that
you make from the page
do not determine the address that the Data Studio web console uses in the From field
of email messages.
Procedure
- Stop Data Studio web console.
- On Linux and UNIX: From the installation directory, run the
command stop.sh.
- On Windows: From the
Start menu, click .
- Edit the Config/dswebserver.properties file.
Change the value of the emailFrom field to the
email address from which you want to send alert notifications, or
add a emailFrom field if the field does not exist. For example, add the following line to the dswebserver.properties file:
emailFrom=examplesender@exampledomain.com
- Start Data Studio web console.
- On Linux and UNIX: From the installation directory, run the
command start.sh.
- On Windows: From the
Start menu, click .
Results
Data Studio web console will
send alert notifications from the email address that you specified.
