Enterprise Edition Configuration

​

EE environment variables

In additon to the extra features mentioned in the overview page, you have access to additional configuraton options in the form of environment variables as an Entprprise Edition user.

​

ENV_SEED_CONFIGURATION

This variable allows you to start your Danswer instance with pre-configured options that persist across restarts.

​

Configuration Options

ENV_SEED_CONFIGURATION accepts a JSON string with the following options:

• llms: List of LLM configurations (name, provider, api_key, api_base, api_version, custom_config, default_model_name, fast_default_model_name)
• admin_user_emails: List of email addresses for automatic admin role assignment
• seeded_name: Pre-set name for your Danswer instance
• seeded_logo_path: Path to your logo within the assets folder

​

Usage Example

export ENV_SEED_CONFIGURATION='{"admin_user_emails": ["email@gmail.com"], "seeded_name": "Acme Corp", "seeded_logo_path": "assets/logo.png"}'

This configuration sets up admin email, instance name, and logo path.

​

API_KEY_HASH_ROUNDS

This variable allows you to configure the number of rounds used in the SHA-256 Crypt hashing algorithm for API keys.

• Default value: 535000
• Allowed range: 1000 to 999999999

​

Usage Example

export API_KEY_HASH_ROUNDS=600000

Increasing this value enhances security but may impact performance. The default value provides a good balance for most use cases.

    {
      "id": 1,
      "keyword": "wifi",
      "answer": "The wifi password is \"XYZ\"",
      "categories": [
        {
          "id": 0,

Example Usage

You can test the endpoint using a tool like cURL:

curl -X POST 'http://localhost:8080/query/standard-answer' \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     -d '{
       "message": "wifi password",
       "slack_bot_categories": ["General"]
     }'

This will test the standard answers for the message “wifi password” and the Slack bot category “General.”
