You can override many of the driver configuration parameters using policies.
If an attribute overriding a default configuration parameter is present, it will be applied to the note regardless of event type. Because these parameters map to items on a note in Lotus Notes, these overrides are passed as attribute tags of the event element, or <add-value> children of the event element in the XML document.
Another example is in the sample driver configuration, in the style sheet named AddAccountNotesOptions.xml. It utilizes global configuration values (GCVs) specified in NotesConfig2GCV.xml to determine which setting to apply.
Certify User Flag |
certify-user |
As an attribute to an <add> event element |
