RTL allows the user to configure and control specific application parameters for app customization and integration.<br />
The parameters can be configured via RTL-Config.json file or through environment variables defined at the OS level. Required <br />
parameters have `default` values for initial setup and can be updated after RTL server initial start.<br />
<br />
