Application Name Renaming for Collected URLs and Page Titles

Introduction

Configure webdata-to-app.map to map an application name for collected URLs and/or page titles to make reports more readable.

warning

Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT Core Server.

Open the webdata-to-app.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.
Use the following format to map a URL or a web page title substring:
Mapping Syntax
```
MAP: <application name>
*<URL substring>*\*<Title substring>\*
```
Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-whitespace character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported, allowing you to use several globbing patterns; however, remember that they are slower than exact matches. To make your mapping files more effective and efficient, refer to the Optimizing Rules to Speed Up Rename or Mapping page.

warning
The entries in the URL and title are case-sensitive. Also, note that leading and trailing spaces are removed from entries.

On the example, any URL with autodesk and autodesk360 in it and any page title with A360 in it will be mapped to Autodesk.
Example
```
MAP: Autodesk
# https://a360.autodesk.com/drive/
*autodesk*\*A360*
*autodesk360*\*A360*
```
All the titles that contain LinkedIn in different cases will be mapped to LinkedIn.
Example
```
MAP: LinkedIn
*\*LinkedIn\*
*\*linkedin\*
*\*linkedIn\*
*\*Linkedin\*
```
You can also include custom configurations in this mapping file, such as default mapping, setting date limits on specific mapping entries, or creating nested maps.
Save the changes.
