XS_​EXTENSION_​DIRECTORY

This advanced option must be set in an initialization (.ini) file. We recommend setting this advanced option in an env_<environment>.ini or role_<role>.ini file, but it can be set in any .ini file. To ensure that all users have the same tools, we recommend that you do not set this advanced option in the user.ini file.

Use the advanced option XS_EXTENSION_DIRECTORY to define additional installation folders for extensions, or customer tools developed on top of Open API. You can use folders on any local drives or mapped network drives.

Extensions from the default %XSDATADIR%\environments\common\extensions folder are installed before extensions or tools from the additional installation folders are installed.
