Configuration
The configuration tab contains the general specifications for the activity. For example, an FTP activity would contain specifications for the FTP session, such as whether the type of data being sent is text or binary or whether the FTP server resides outside of a firewall. Required fields on the configuration tab are displayed in bold so that it is easy to see the minimum required information for configuration of an activity.
The following illustrates the configuration tab.
In general, all activities allow you to specify a name for the activity and provide a short description on the Configuration tab. Any other items on the configuration tab are the required configuration elements you must specify to make the activity work.
