Properties Files

A properties file is a file that stores data in the key = value format. Each row in a properties file contains one key-to-value association. In code terms, a properties file represents an associative array and each element of this array (key) is associated with a value.

A properties file is commonly used by an application to hold its configuration. If your application uses a configuration file, you can model the application in UCMDB.
