Plugin ExternalConfigurationProviderPlugin

The Substitutor process queries the ExternalConfigurationProviderPlugin plugin, using the placeholder key and namespace, to determine the replacement value for the placeholder. In the base configuration, Guidewire provides a default implementation class for this plugin. It is also possible to create your own implementation class for the ExternalConfigurationProviderPlugin plugin.

Enabling the ExternalConfigurationProviderPlugin plugin

In the base configuration, Guidewire disables the ExternalConfigurationProviderPlugin plugin by default. To use the plugin functionality, you must first enable the plugin in the Studio plugin editor. After you open the plugin in the Studio plugin editor, uncheck the Disabled box.
