Jahia Cloud offers a fully dedicated environment. This means that you get as much liberty to configure your cloud environment as if it were hosted on-premise. You configure your environment in a user interface that provides information about configuration options and recommendations on settings for specific use cases. The property values that you modify are read from the jahia.properties config file. The following image shows the configuration home page.
You can also add new properties for custom code or modules, export properties that you have customized and import properties. You typically use import and export to copy the properties that you have customized from one environment to another.
After validating the environment configuration, you must restart application nodes to apply the configuration changes. You can restart nodes one-by-one without generating any downtime as dynamic load balancers stop sending traffic to nodes that are restarting.
You can enter a term to filter the list of properties that show under the Configuration tab.
To filter the properties list:
In the Configuration tab, enter a value in the Filter field and press Enter. The following shows filtering on authentication

To create a new property:
You must restart application nodes to apply configuration changes.
After adding a custom property, you can remove it if necessary by clicking the Delete property icon beside the property.
You can use an import file to copy custom configurations across environments. You create the import file by exporting properties from another environment or by creating the file manually in a text editor.
When you import properties into your environment, Jahia Cloud compares the values in the import file against your environment and then imports the changes.
To import properties into your environment:
After saving, the value updates in the UI as well.
You can export the property values that you have modified in your cloud environment to create an import file.
To export properties:
In the Configuration tab, click Export properties. Properties are exported in a text file to your browser's default download location.
