Configuration Reference
#######################

Settings for FactoryTX are stored as a JSON-formatted configuration file,
`factorytx.conf`, in the `conf.d` directory.

The configuration file supports bash-like environment variables for string values.

* Values such as ``${PASSWORD}`` or ``${PREFIX}-name`` can be configured.
* If you want to prevent the environment variables from showing up or being stored in the logs,
  prefix them with ``${FTX_CREDS}``. For example: ``${FTX_CREDS_PASSWORD}``

The main sections of a configuration file are:

* :ref:`sight_machine_cloud`
* :ref:`data_receiver`
* :ref:`transforms`
* :ref:`data_transmit`
