# ConfigAdmin Binding v1
With this binding it is possible to dynamically change settings that are defined in the Configuration Admin Manager of OSGi, where all configuration data are kept for openHAB. The various .cfg files are as such used to define the initial configuration, while you can use this binding to change values during runtime, simply by sending a command to an item.
# Binding Configuration
This binding does not itself have a configuration.
# Item Configuration
The syntax for the ConfigAdmin binding configuration string is:
configadmin="<pid>:<command>"
where <pid> can be configured either fully qualified with preceding org.openhab or without it as a shortcut. In case no '.' is found within the pid it is prefixed with org.openhab.
Here are some examples of valid binding configuration strings:
configadmin="dropbox:syncmode"
configadmin="org.openhab.gcal:refresh"
# Examples
Switch Dropbox_OnOff "Activate Sync" (State) { configadmin="dropbox:activate" }
String Dropbox_SyncMode "Syncmode" (State) { configadmin="dropbox:syncmode" }
