Getting Data In

Should I have multiple or single props.conf?

Hello,

I'd like to know if it makes more sense to have only one props.conf and one transforms.conf. Or is it better to split it between different files? Is it even possible to write everything to one file?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

Yes, you can put all your configurations in a single file, but it is better to keep different files for different applications.
While managing different files, make sure that all your changes are done in a local folder.
