Employee Configuration Reference
Summary
This page identifies safe configuration categories without disclosing key names, values, connection material, or internal endpoints.
Audience
- DevOps engineers, developers, support engineers, and security reviewers
Reference Content
| Category | Purpose | Required/optional evidence | Safe impact | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Database | EF Core persistence and startup migration | Required for normal service operation | Unavailable/invalid configuration can prevent startup or data access | Employee/database owners |
| Authentication | Accepted token trust | Operationally required for protected business calls | Incorrect trust configuration rejects callers | Identity/security owners |
| Tenant context | Tenant-scoped data and validation | Required for Employee commands | Missing context rejects or empties operations | Employee/identity owners |
| Messaging | Shared event-bus adapter | Optional for HTTP persistence; required for successful publication | Unavailable messaging leaves publication unsuccessful | Messaging owner |
| Outbox | Transactional event staging | No separate category beyond Employee persistence is confirmed | Staged messages can remain pending/failed | Employee owner |
| Observability | Tracing exporters and log behavior | Export destinations are optional | Changes where traces/logs are emitted | DevOps/observability owner |
| Service identity | Labels logs/traces and service information | A fallback exists; explicit production ownership requires confirmation | Incorrect identity reduces signal clarity | Service owner |
| Migration behavior | Automatic or separately governed migration | Optional control; one migration path is required operationally | A suppressed startup migration requires another approved step | Database/DevOps owners |
| Gateway routing | Monolith or extracted compatibility destination | Required for portal access; direct service testing can be independent | Changes runtime ownership and identifier expectations | Gateway/service owners |
Restart requirements are not uniformly encoded in source and therefore Require confirmation for each deployment platform.
Public-safety boundary
Secret-bearing names/values, connection values, broker topology, internal addresses, and routing toggle names are intentionally omitted.
