▪Portal for ArcGIS: In the Portal URL box, enter the URL for your portal, for example, https://portal.domain1.com/arcgis/.
We strongly recommend that you use HTTPS to access ArcGIS.
4.In the Redirect URL area:
▪Select the appropriate connection scheme for your Printing server: https:// or http://.
If the web applications that will host print templates run on HTTPS then you must run VertiGIS Studio Printing on HTTPS as well. Otherwise, the applications will not be able to connect.

Alternatively, type or paste the host name.

The virtual path is entered automatically based on the IIS Settings.
5.Follow the instructions that apply to you:
▪If your organization already uses other VertiGIS Studio products that are registered with the same portal as VertiGIS Studio Printing, we recommend that you use the existing ArcGIS item to register Printing with the portal. Follow the instructions in Manage an On-Premises Installation.
▪If this is the first VertiGIS Studio product registered with this portal, you will have to create an ArcGIS Application item and use it to register VertiGIS Studio Printing. Follow the instructions in Register VertiGIS Studio Printing Using a New ArcGIS Item.

If Portal for ArcGIS is secured using Windows Integrated Security and anonymous access to the portal is disabled in IIS, the Post Installer will present a warning that says: "The portal application registration is valid—however the specified portal requires authentication". You must install the VertiGIS Studio Web Adaptor Extensions to allow VertiGIS Studio Printing to communicate with Portal for ArcGIS.
8.Close the Post Installer when you are finished.
Manage the Service Account
The first time you run the Post Installer, it creates a local user account called VSP_runner that VertiGIS Studio Printing uses in its back-end operations. This account is required for running prints.
You can modify the account in the Post Installer, in case you need to:
▪Update the password if it expires.
▪Change to a different local user or to a domain user.
A domain user is required to access Windows-secured ArcGIS Server running on a different machine.
The account can be a local user or a domain user, but not a machine account. The account must have the "Allow log on locally" user right.
To modify the user account:
1.If you want to use a different account, create the account.
2.Open the Post Installer.
3.Click the VertiGIS Studio Printing icon 
in the upper left corner and select Service Account.
4.If you created a new account, enter the name of the account in the Account box.
5.Enter the password and click OK, or click Generate to create a password automatically.
6.Close the Post Installer when you are finished.
