What key setting is included in the build.properties file?

The build.properties file in SailPoint IdentityIQ is a central configuration file that contains key settings used during the build and deployment process of the IdentityIQ application. One of the significant entries in this file is the IIQVersion setting. This setting specifies the version of IdentityIQ being used, which is crucial when managing upgrades, dependencies, and ensuring compatibility with other components in the environment. By clearly defining the version, it helps developers and administrators recognize which features and fixes are available and ensures that they are working with the correct version of the software.

Other entries, while important, do not provide the same level of immediate context around the specific versioning of the application as IIQVersion does. For example, the database type, application path, and server hostname are indeed important for the configuration and operation of IdentityIQ, but they do not relate directly to the versioning and management of the application itself. Understanding the version of IdentityIQ in use is critical for maintaining the integrity and performance of your identity governance processes.
