The following works in earlier versions of RT, but above is recommended for new things:
 
Set($Baz, ["reference", "to", "array", "of", "values"]);
Set($Zot, {"reference" =&gt; "to", "hash" =&gt; "of", "keyed" =&gt; "values"});

For backwards compatibility with RT 3.6 you can use the following syntax:
$RT::Foo            # "Value of Foo"
$RT::Bar            # 1
$RT::Baz-&gt;[0]        # "array"
$RT::Zot-&gt;{"keyed"}  # "values"

Note: "Privileged =&gt; 1" does not appear to work at present. All auto-created users are unprivileged, and therefore do not show up in the "Configuration -&gt; Users" list, and obviously do not have privileged status in the system either.

What It Is

The SiteConfig file lives in ${RTHOME}/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm. Its purpose is to provide you a place to override config settings in ${RTHOME}/etc/RT_Config.pm as well as add new config variables as provided by various user Contributions or for your own purposes.

All of the available configuration options are documented in RT_Config.pm and also available on the web.

You set a config variable like so:

Set($Foo, "Value of Foo");
Set($Bar, 1);
Set(@Baz, "array", "of", "values");
Set(%Zot, "hash" => "of", "keyed" => "values");

You access them like this in RT 3.8 and newer:

RT->Config->Get('Foo') # "Value of option Foo"
RT->Config->Get('Bar')  # 1
RT->Config->Get('Baz')->[0] # get option Baz that is array reference and access first element

Plugins

Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::Extension::ResetPassword RT::Extension::MandatorySubject));

The following is an invalid way to define extensions as each declaration will override the previous:

Set(@Plugins, qw(Extension::QuickDelete));
Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::Extension::ResetPassword));
Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::Extension::MandatorySubject));

Note there are only spaces between the (full) extension name and any spaces are allowed, so the following is also valid:

Set(@Plugins, qw(
   RT::Extension::ResetPassword
   RT::Extension::MandatorySubject
   RT::Extension::QuickDelete
));

Custom Statuses:
