KB440344: Emails sent as a Notification from MicroStrategy Library Collaboration Server 10.x use IP Address in the address link

Starting with the release of Strategy ONE (March 2024), dossiers are also known as dashboards.
SYMPTOM
When a user tags another user in a dossier, users receive a notification email from Collaboration services that they have been tagged on a Dossier in Strategy Library. The email contains a link to the dossier, and that link address utilizes the IP address instead of the server name (in some cases this is not information that should be public facing)

 
CAUSE
This is working as designed in Strategy Web. In the authorizationServerURL, the default address is “localhost” which defaults to the IP address of the Collaboration Server in the link in the notification email.

ACTION
The change this IP address to be a server name:

1. Open the Config.Json in a text editor
   
1. located at: “<Strategy installation folder>/Collaboration Server/”
2. On the Second line, “AuthorizationServerURL=” change ‘localhost’ to the server name.
   
1. Localhost will default to the IP address
3.  Save the config.json
