# ReportWatcher Service Configuration

This section provides steps for configuring the report service.

## Requirements <a href="#requirements" id="requirements"></a>

The *ReportWatcher* service is a WCF service that depends on the full .NET 4.6.1 and above.

The main distribution package contains tree elements:

1. A `bin` directory with the required assemblies
2. A `ReportService.svc` file with the service definition
3. A `Web.config` with configuration for the web service.

This service could be installed in IIS or IIS express as with other WCF services.

For debugging purposes just run the `ReportWatcher.sln` solution and Visual Studio is going to publish the service in IIS Express. The default URL is `http://localhost:5011/ReportService.svc` .

## Configuring the modernized application to use the service <a href="#configuring-the-modernized-application-to-use-the-service" id="configuring-the-modernized-application-to-use-the-service"></a>

When running the modernized application the `reportService` configuration setting specifies the URL for the report service.

The setting could be specified in the command line as follows:

```
dotnet run --reportService=
```

## Configuration using IIS <a href="#configuration-using-iis" id="configuration-using-iis"></a>
