# Broker

Location of the broker can be set by editing .env file and updating property:

```
BROKER_URL=https://broker.ids.isst.fraunhofer.de/infrastructure
```

TRUE Connector can register itself on startup, and also unregister when shutting down. To enable this, set

```
application.selfdescription.registrateOnStartup=true
```
