Configuring Visibility of Non-Tokenized Properties in BWCE in TIBCO Platform
Article ID: KB0138219
Updated On:
| Products | Versions |
|---|---|
| TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks | 6.12.0 |
| TIBCO Platform - Control Plane | 1.13.0 |
Description
Starting with BW 6.12.0, an enhancement (BWCE-8904) was introduced that makes non-tokenized properties visible in the Platform UI for deployed applications. These properties may include constant values and names with patterns such as / - _ SlAsH, which were not shown in earlier BWCE versions.
During the build/export process in Platform UI:
-
app-props.jsoncontains both tokenized and non-tokenized properties -
manifest-bwce.jsondoes not include non-tokenized properties
To provide flexibility, BWCE introduces an environment variable–based control to manage the visibility of non-tokenized properties.
The environment variable: ENABLE_NON_TOKENIZED_PROPS
Default value: true
Controls whether non-tokenized properties are exposed in the Platform UI
Environment
-
Product: TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition (BWCE)
-
Version: BW 6.12.0 and above
-
Applies To: TIBCO Platform 1.13.0
Resolution
Scenarios:
During Provisioning
When BWCE capability is provisioned with non-tokenized properties enabled:
Newly deployed applications → non-tokenized properties are visible
When BWCE capability is provisioned with non-tokenized properties disabled:
Newly deployed applications → non-tokenized properties are not visible
Post-Provisioning Configuration Update
Updating the capability configuration after provisioning:
Newly deployed applications → reflect the updated setting
Existing running applications → do not change behavior automatically
Application Upgrade Scenarios
When non-tokenized properties are enabled in capability configuration and existing applications are upgraded:
Non-tokenized properties become visible
When non-tokenized properties are disabled in capability configuration and existing applications are upgraded:
Non-tokenized properties become hidden

Issue/Introduction
BWCE supports controlled visibility of non-tokenized properties through a capability-level configuration introduced in TIBCO Platform 1.13.0. This allows customers to reduce noise in the Platform UI by hiding constant properties when not required. Existing applications require an explicit upgrade to reflect configuration changes.
