Where to find shareUrl variable

EjikeAlfie — Tue, 07 Oct 2025 11:31:30 GMT

Good day Folks,

I would please like to know where to find the shareUrl variable, i.e., shareUrl = http://localhost:8080/share. I want to change this to shareUrl="another url link", so that the change dynamically takes effect everywhere.

Can someone provide me with the correct directions?

I look forward to your response.

Hello, this is not a best practice to ask the same question a second time and ping experts of the community, expecting that you deserve an answer from them.

Did you ask your question on Discord too and got no answer?

From source code (link), it should use these params:

share.context=share share.host=${localname} share.port=8080 share.protocol=http

Sorry for that. It would not happen again.

Good day Leo,

Can I make these changes in the "alfresco-global.properties" file since the application is already installed, and restart the application for the changes to take effect?
