MongoDB server address for every user login in active directory domains

Hi, OpenPype is asking for the database address every time a new user logs into the machine. Is it possible to automate this with some sort of GPO (group policy) instead of typing many machines when artists change desks?

I’m not a windows specialist but I think you can add the OPENPYPE_MONGO variable in a GPO. This link may be able to help you to put a variable by a GPO:

and that of the openpype doc for the OPENPYPE_MONGO variable:
