Tosca Server configuration files
This topic lists the configurations you need to back up before you upgrade Tosca Server to version 2024.2. You have to back up manually if one of the following applies to you:
-
You upgrade from version 15.2 or older.
-
You upgrade from version 16.0 or newer, but the implicit upgrade didn't work.
In either case, you only need to back up the configurations of the Tosca Server features that you use.

* As of 2024.1, REST API configurations are split between the appsettings.json and the TCAPIRestServiceStandalone.dll.config file, both located at C:\Program Files (x86)\TRICENTIS\Tosca Server\RestApiService. So, you need to back up TCAPIRestServiceStandalone.exe.config, but populate the new files after the upgrade.
