# Generating Application Configuration YAML File from Application Configurator

In the Application Configurator, you can configure entities for an application such as properties, substitution variables, resource templates, services, and reference bindings. When the configuration is complete, you can download the configuration in a `.zip` format.

Before you begin The application DAA, a Log4j configuration file (optional), and an input YAML file are required to start with the application configuration.

Procedure

1. Upload the application DAA, and optionally, the Log4j configuration file. If you have previously downloaded the YAML file, you can upload it as an input file. See Uploading Application DAA.

   A red indicator icon with the count is displayed on the tabs and entities which have incomplete configuration.

2. You can navigate to the tabs or entities which have incomplete configuration and complete the configuration. Alternatively, click the red indicator icon . The list of required configuration is displayed. Click Fix to complete the required configuration.

3. If your application contains configured properties, specify values for them. See Properties.
4. If your application contains substitution variables, assign values to them. See Substitution Variables.

5. Configure the service bindings. See Managing Service and Reference Bindings.
