# Pexip Client Provisioning

**Pexip Client Provisioning** (or Branding) is a configuration process used to enable the full functional scope of the installed Pexip application.

## Purpose
Without provisioning, the local Pexip client may have limited capabilities. Provisioning allows the client to synchronize with the specific institutional settings of the DFNconf service, unlocking features such as:
- **Layout Control**: The ability to manage how participants are displayed on the screen.
- **Institutional Branding**: Alignment with the service provider's interface.

## Implementation
Provisioning is achieved by triggering a specific API link (often Base64 encoded) that the installed Pexip client recognizes to update its internal configuration.
