# Message Formats Administration

For efficiency and for safety, administrators can restrict the message formats available to some or all of the applications in a realm. That is, administrators can require that applications use only preload formats and built-in formats, and prohibit applications from using dynamic formats.

## Configuration

Two parameters determine whether this prohibition is in effect, and they apply with different scope and opposite polarity.

- The realm property Dynamic Message Formats applies to all applications throughout the realm.
- The application parameter Manage All Formats applies only to the instances of a specific application.

While administrators can configure these parameters independently, the effective value governing an application depends on both parameters. That is, if either the realm or the application restricts formats, then the restriction is in force for the application.

- To restrict formats in all applications, disallow Dynamic Message Formats on the realm properties page.
- To restrict formats only in a specific application, enable Manage All Formats on the details panel of the application definition.
- To permit formats without restriction in an application, you must both allow Dynamic Message Formats globally, and also disable Manage All Formats for that application.
