Port numbers in bold underlined type are based on the type of database used.
-
Some of the ports listed above may also be used by other modules.

User-configurable modules may use other ports entirely, depending on the settings defined by the end user. A few examples:
The Create Email Content plugin will use the port defined in the Mail host setting in Workflow's OL Connect Preferences
The ports used by the HTTP Client Input task, Legacy SOAP Client and SOAP Client plugin depend on the configured URL.
