    <rest>https://viewer.example.org/viewer/rest</rest>
    <iiif useForCmsMedia="true">https://viewer.example.org/viewer/rest</iiif>

    <workflow>https://workflow.example.org/goobi/api/</workflow>

</urls>

The parameters are explained in detail in the following table:

Setting

Description

metadata/(sourcefile|marc|dc|ese)

The elements contain absolute URLs to the currently displayed record via the OAI interface in METS, MARCXML Dublin Core or ESE format. The Goobi viewer appends the identifier of the current record to this URL.

solr

Absolute URL to Apache Solr. The Solr index is the main data source for the Goobi viewer. For performance reasons, it should be located on the same machine or on the local network.

dfg-viewer

Absolute URL to the DFG Viewer.

rest

Base URL to the REST API.

iiif

URL to the IIIF Image API interface.

taskManager

The URL of the intranda TaskManager on which the plugin for PDF generation is located if the Goobi viewer uses a TaskManager for PDF generation.

download

If PDF and ePub files are offered for download, the URL to the servlet must be named.

workflow

URL to a Goobi workflow API for contributing content

urnResolver

Alternative URL to a URN resolver instead of the internal one. This setting is used for the creation of canonical URLs.
