You might want to use configTool for the following reasons.
The element path must use the internal names of categories and properties. You can obtain them by going to the Configuration page, selecting the wanted category or property, and looking at the path that is displayed in parentheses in the right pane. Delimit a path in the configuration property hierarchy by using the
| character, and surround the path with double quotation marks.
When you use -d with the
-vp command, the configTool deletes any child nodes in the path you specify if those nodes are not included in the XML file you specify.
The parent element path must use the internal names of categories and properties. You can obtain them by going to the Configuration page, selecting the required category or property, and looking at the path that is displayed in parentheses in the right pane. Delimit a path in the configuration property hierarchy by using the
| character, and surround the path with double quotation marks.
You can specify an import file location relative to the tools/bin directory or you can specify a full directory path. If you specify a relative path or no path,
configTool first looks for the file relative to the
tools/bin directory.

You can specify an export file location relative to the current directory or you can specify a full directory path. If the file specification does not contain a separator (/ on UNIX™, / or \ on Windows™),
configTool writes the file to the
tools/bin directory under your
Marketing Platform installation. If you do not provide the
xml extension,
configTool adds it.
When you use -d with the
-vp command, the configTool deletes any child nodes in the path you specify if those nodes are not included in the XML file you specify.
Register the application. The registration file location can be relative to the tools/bin directory or can be a full path. By default, this command does not overwrite an existing configuration, but you can use the
-o option to force an overwrite. The
productName parameter must be one of those names that are listed above.
The configTool utility uses product names as parameters with the commands that register and unregister products. With the 8.5.0 release of
IBM® EMM, many product names changed. However, the names that are recognized by
configTool did not change. The valid product names for use with
configTool are listed below, along with the current names of the products.
Unregister an application that is specified by productName. You do not have to include a path to the product category; the product name is sufficient, and it is required. The process removes all properties and configuration settings for the product.
When used with -i or
-r, it overwrites an existing category or product registration (node).
When used with -d, you can delete a category (node) that does not have the
Delete Category link on the
Configuration page.
