About the configurators

Configurators

After licensing the Configurator Module, you will see a number of configurators in the Flow elements pane. They are included in the Switch installer and automatically updated if a more recent version is available in the next update.

However, there are many more third-party applications that have configurators for Switch. For a complete list, go to https://www.enfocus.com/en/products/switch/partner-integrations-crossroads.

To use these configurators with Switch, you must download and install them.

Note that you must also have installed the third-party application. Otherwise the configurator may be shown in the Flow elements pane (in gray), but you won't be able to use it.

Note: When installing an application, make sure to close Switch during the installation, or to restart Switch afterwards. This is necessary for Switch to recognize the newly installed application.

Additional flow elements for which no configurator is available

As it is not feasible to have a configurator for every application on the market, the following two flow elements can be used to automate or interact with third-party applications for which there is no configurator:

Execute command allows you to configure command-line applications through the regular Switch user interface (rather than console commands and options).
Generic application allows you to control any third-party application that supports hot folders.

These flow elements are only available if you have licensed the Configurator Module.

PitStop Server and PitStop Server PDF2Image Configurator

If you have an active PitStop Server license, you don't need to activate the Configurator Module to use the PitStop Server and the PitStop Server PDF2Image Configurator. In that case, the PitStop Server Configurators are also available if you have only licensed the Core Engine Module.
