The appsettings.json configuration file

The web application is configured via the appsettings.json file in the installation directory.

This file controls the application's runtime behavior.

If the appsettings.json file is modified, the application pool in IIS or the Asset Manager Service must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

If backslashes are used within the appsettings.json file, they must be escaped.
This means that \ becomes \\.
