Application Setup - General
The General tab is the tenant's identity card and its notification preferences in one place: who you are, what time zone the system should assume when a user or resource has not declared one, and where Dime.Scheduler should send the messages that need a human to act on them.
Most of these fields are set once during initial setup and rarely touched again. The two that quietly do the most work in the background are Default time zone (it is what catches users and resources that lack a time zone of their own, which would otherwise lead to appointments showing up at the wrong wall-clock time) and Notification email, which is where Dime.Scheduler reaches out when something needs your attention.
Why client-secret reminders matter here
Client secrets configured in the application setup and the Exchange setup all eventually expire. When they do, the integration they back stops working - typically silently, until someone notices that data is no longer flowing.
Dime.Scheduler watches the expiration dates of those secrets and emails the notification address ahead of time so you can renew them on your terms rather than during an outage:
- Expiration tracking: secrets across the application setup and Exchange setup are watched continuously.
- Proactive reminders: notifications go out ahead of the expiration date, giving you time to renew.
The same reminder mechanism applies to API keys, configured through the API key expiry reminder frequency field below.
