# Configuring ABS POC mode

## About this task

You can install API Behavioral Security (ABS) AI engine in POC mode.

## Steps

* Configure the parameter during automated installation. For more information on configuring the POC mode at the time of installation, see [Changing ABS default settings](../installing_pingintelligence_for_apis/pingintelligence_change_abs_settings.html).

* If you are using manual installation to install ABS AI engine and MongoDB, configure `poc` to `true` using the [Global configuration update REST API](pingintelligence_global_configuration_update_rest_api.html).
