Authenticate using Azure Service Principal

Azure Service Principal is a connection type that goes through OAuth. Set your AuthScheme to AzureServicePrincipal and see Using Azure Service Principal Authentication for an authentication guide.

Use Azure Service Principal

Azure Service Principal

Azure Service Principal is role-based application-based authentication. This means that authentication is done per application, rather than per user. All tasks taken by the app are done without a default user context, but based on the assigned roles. The application access to the resources is controlled through the assigned roles' permissions.

To use Azure Service Principal authentication, you must:

  • Set up the ability to assign a role to the authentication application. To do this, create a custom OAuth AD application, as described in

    Creating a Custom OAuth Application

    Microsoft Office 365 supports authentication using Azure AD and Azure Service Principal, both of which are OAuth-based.

    This topic describes how to:

    • create and register custom OAuth application for Azure AD or Azure Service Principal
    • provide Admin Consent to a custom OAuth application
    • create a custom OAuth application for use with client credentials
    Azure AD

    In portal.azure.com:

    1. Log in to https://portal.azure.com.
    2. In the left-hand navigation pane, select Azure Active Directory, then applicationRegistrations.
    3. Click New registration.
    4. Enter a name for the application.
    5. Select the desired tenant setup: single- or multi-tenant, and public or private use.
      • If you select the default option, "Accounts in this organizational directory only", you must set the AzureTenant connection property to the ID of the Azure AD Tenant when establishing a connection with the Microsoft Office 365 connector. Otherwise, the authentication attempt fails with an error.
      • If your application is for private use only, specify Accounts in this organization directory only.
      • If you want to distribute your application, choose one of the multi-tenant options.
    6. Set the redirect URL to http://localhost:33333 (the connector's default) OR specify a different port and set CallbackURL to the exact reply URL you defined.
    7. Click Register to register the new application. An application management screen displays.
      Note the value in Application (client) ID as the OAuthClientId and the Directory (tenant) ID as the AzureTenant.
    8. Navigate to Certificates & Secrets and define the application authentication type. There are two types of authentication available: certificate (recommended) or client secret.
      • For certificate authentication: In Certificates & Secrets, select Upload certificate, then upload the certificate from your local machine.
      • For creating a new client secret: In Certificates & Secrets, select New Client Secret for the application and specify its duration. After the client secret is saved, Microsoft Office 365 displays the key value. Copy this value, as it is displayed only once. This value becomes the OAuthClientSecret.
    9. Select API Permissions > Add > Delegated permissions.
    10. Select the Microsoft Graph API and then select the permissions your app will seek.
    11. Save your changes.
    12. If you have specified the use of permissions that require admin consent (such as the Application Permissions), you can grant them from the current tenant on the API Permissions page.
    Azure Service Principal

    To use Azure Service Principal authentication, you must set up the ability to assign a role to the authentication application, then register an application with the Azure AD tenant to create a new Service Principal. That new Service Principal can then leverage the assigned role-based access

    control to access resources in your subscription.

    In portal.azure.com:

    1. Create a custom OAuth AD application, as described above.
    2. Use the search bar to search for the Subscriptions service.
    3. Open the Subscriptions page.
    4. Select the subscription to which to assign the application.
    5. Open the Access control (IAM).
    6. Select Add > Add role assignment. Microsoft Office 365 opens the Add role assignment page.
    7. Assign your custom Azure AD application the role of Owner.

    Some custom applications require administrative permissions to operate within an Azure Active Directory tenant. Admin consent can be granted when creating a new custom OAuth application, by adding relevant permissions that are already marked with "Admin Consent Required". Admin consent is also required to use Client Credentials in the OAuth flow.

    To grant admin consent:

    1. Have an admin log in to portal.azure.com.
    2. Navigate to App Registrations and find the custom OAuth application you created.
    3. Under API Permissions, click Grant Consent.

    This gives your application permissions on the tenant under which it was created.

    OAuth supports the use of client credentials to authenticate. In a client credentials OAuth flow, credentials are created for the authenticating application itself. The auth flow acts just like the usual auth flow except that there is no prompt for an associated user to provide credentials.

    All tasks accepted by the application are executed outside of the context of a default user.

Note

Since the embedded OAuth credentials authenticate on a per-user basis, you cannot

use them in a client OAuth flow. You must always create a custom OAuth application to use client credentials.

In portal.azure.com:

  1. Create a custom OAuth application, as described above.
  2. Navigate to App Registrations.
  3. Find the application you just created, and open API Permissions.
  4. Select the Microsoft Graph permissions. There are two distinct sets of permissions: Delegated and Application.
  5. Under Application Permissions, select the permissions you require for your integration.

.

  • Register an application with an Azure AD tenant, to create a new service principal that can be used with the role-based access control, to access resources in your subscription.

Do the following:

  1. Create a custom Azure AD application, as described in

    6. Assign your custom Azure AD application the role of Owner.

Admin consent occurs when the Admin for an Azure Active Directory tenant grants permissions to a custom application that explicitly requires an admin to consent to the use case.

When creating a new Azure AD application in the Azure Portal, you must specify which permissions the application requires. Some permissions may be marked as "Admin Consent Required". For example, all Groups permissions require Admin Consent. If your application requires admin consent, there are two ways you can do this.

The easiest way to grant admin consent is to have an admin log into portal.azure.com and navigate to the application you have created in App Registrations. Under API Permissions, click Grant Consent. This gives your application permissions on the tenant under which it was created.

If your organization has multiple tenants or you must grant application permissions for other tenants outside your organization, use the GetAdminConsentURL stored procedure to generate the Admin Authorization URL. Unlike the GetOAuthAuthorizationURL stored procedure, no important information is returned from this endpoint. Rather, after the OAuth application is successfully authorized, it returns a Boolean indicating that permissions have been granted.

After the administrator has approved the OAuth Application, you can continue to authenticate.

Client Credentials

Client credentials refers to a flow in OAuth where there is no direct user authentication taking place. Instead, credentials are created for just the application itself. All tasks taken by the application are done without a default user context. This makes the authentication flow a bit different from the standard flow.

All permissions related to the client OAuth flow require admin consent. This means you cannot use the application embedded with the Microsoft Office 365 connector in the client OAuth flow. You must create your own OAuth application to use client credentials. See

for more information.

In your App Registration in portal.azure.com, navigate to API Permissions and select the Microsoft Graph permissions. There are two distinct sets of permissions: Delegated permissions and Application permissions. The permissions used during client credential authentication are under "Application Permissions".

Select the permissions you require for your integration. After you do this, set the following connection properties:

  • AuthScheme: AzureServicePrincipal.
  • InitiateOAuth: GETANDREFRESH. You can use InitiateOAuth to avoid repeating the OAuth exchange and manually setting the OAuthAccessToken.
  • AzureTenant: The tenant you wish to connect to.
  • OAuthGrantType: CLIENT.
  • OAuthClientId: The client ID in your application settings.
  • OAuthClientSecret: The client secret in your application settings.

Authentication with client credentials takes place automatically like any other connection, except there is no window opened prompting the user. Because there is no user context, there is no need for a browser popup. Connections will take place and be handled internally.

Administrative Tasks

The Microsoft Office 365 connector can be used to perform administrative tasks. This can be done by specifying the UserId column to execute CUD operations.

The UserId Column

Many tables expose a special UserId column. This is designed to be used by an administrator to modify records on another user's account. If you are not an administrator or do not desire this behavior, do not specify the UserId when performing an INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE operation. For instance, executing the following will insert a contact for another user:

INSERT INTO Contacts (displayName, CompanyName, UserId) VALUES ('Bill', 'Bob Co', '12345')

The above request will have the overall effect of attempting to add a contact under the resource at /users/12345/contacts. When UserId is not specified, the resources affected will instead be modified under /users/me/contacts. In general if you are not an administrator, you can only affect or view records under /users/me, so it is not recommended to set UserId when you are not an admin.

Important Notes

Configuration Files and Their Paths

  • All references to adding configuration files and their paths refer to files and locations on the Jitterbit agent where the connector is installed. These paths are to be adjusted as appropriate depending on the agent and the operating system. If multiple agents are used in an agent group, identical files will be required on each agent.

Advanced Features

This section details a selection of advanced features of the Microsoft Office 365 connector.

User Defined Views

The connector allows you to define virtual tables, called user defined views, whose contents are decided by a pre-configured query. These views are useful when you cannot directly control queries being issued to the drivers. See User Defined Views for an overview of creating and configuring custom views.

SSL Configuration

Use SSL Configuration to adjust how connector handles TLS/SSL certificate negotiations. You can choose from various certificate formats; see the SSLServerCert property under "Connection String Options" for more information.

Proxy

To configure the connector using private agent proxy settings, select the Use Proxy Settings checkbox on the connection configuration screen.

Query Processing

The connector offloads as much of the SELECT statement processing as possible to Microsoft Office 365 and then processes the rest of the query in memory (client-side).

User Defined Views

The Microsoft Office 365 connector allows you to define a virtual table whose contents are decided by a pre-configured query. These are called User Defined Views, which are useful in situations where you cannot directly control the query being issued to the driver, e.g. when using the driver from Jitterbit. The User Defined Views can be used to define predicates that are always applied. If you specify additional predicates in the query to the view, they are combined with the query already defined as part of the view.

There are two ways to create user defined views:

  • Create a JSON-formatted configuration file defining the views you want.
  • DDL statements.

Define Views Using a Configuration File

User Defined Views are defined in a JSON-formatted configuration file called UserDefinedViews.json. The connector automatically detects the views specified in this file.

You can also have multiple view definitions and control them using the UserDefinedViews connection property. When you use this property, only the specified views are seen by the connector.

This User Defined View configuration file is formatted as follows:

  • Each root element defines the name of a view.
  • Each root element contains a child element, called query, which contains the custom SQL query for the view.

For example:

{
    "MyView": {
        "query": "SELECT * FROM Events WHERE MyColumn = 'value'"
    },
    "MyView2": {
        "query": "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Id IN (1,2,3)"
    }
}

Use the UserDefinedViews connection property to specify the location of your JSON configuration file. For example:

"UserDefinedViews", "C:\Users\yourusername\Desktop\tmp\UserDefinedViews.json"

Define Views Using DDL Statements

The connector is also capable of creating and altering the schema via DDL Statements such as CREATE LOCAL VIEW, ALTER LOCAL VIEW, and DROP LOCAL VIEW.

Create a View

To create a new view using DDL statements, provide the view name and query as follows:

CREATE LOCAL VIEW [MyViewName] AS SELECT * FROM Customers LIMIT 20;

If no JSON file exists, the above code creates one. The view is then created in the JSON configuration file and is now discoverable. The JSON file location is specified by the UserDefinedViews connection property.

Alter a View

To alter an existing view, provide the name of an existing view alongside the new query you would like to use instead:

ALTER LOCAL VIEW [MyViewName] AS SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE TimeModified > '3/1/2020';

The view is then updated in the JSON configuration file.

Drop a View

To drop an existing view, provide the name of an existing schema alongside the new query you would like to use instead.

DROP LOCAL VIEW [MyViewName]

This removes the view from the JSON configuration file. It can no longer be queried.

Schema for User Defined Views

User Defined Views are exposed in the UserViews schema by default. This is done to avoid the view's name clashing with an actual entity in the data model. You can change the name of the schema used for UserViews by setting the UserViewsSchemaName property.

Work with User Defined Views

For example, a SQL statement with a User Defined View called UserViews.RCustomers only lists customers in Raleigh:

SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE City = 'Raleigh';

An example of a query to the driver:

SELECT * FROM UserViews.RCustomers WHERE Status = 'Active';

Resulting in the effective query to the source:

SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE City = 'Raleigh' AND Status = 'Active';

That is a very simple example of a query to a User Defined View that is effectively a combination of the view query and the view definition. It is possible to compose these queries in much more complex patterns. All SQL operations are allowed in both queries and are combined when appropriate.

SSL Configuration

Customize the SSL Configuration

By default, the connector attempts to negotiate SSL/TLS by checking the server's certificate against the system's trusted certificate store.

To specify another certificate, see the SSLServerCert property for the available formats to do so.

Data Model

The connector models the Microsoft Office 365 API as relational tables. Any changes to the remote data are immediately reflected in your queries; the table definitions are dynamically retrieved. When you connect, the connector connects to Microsoft Office 365 and gets the list of tables and the metadata for the tables by calling the appropriate Web services.

API limitations and requirements are documented in this section; you can use the SupportEnhancedSQL feature, set by default, to circumvent most of these limitations.

Tables

Tables shows definitions from a sample Office 365 site. The actual data model

will be obtained dynamically based on your user credentials and Office 365 site.

Stored Procedures

Stored Procedures are function-like interfaces to Office365. They can be used to search, update, and modify information

in Office365.

Tables

The connector models the data in Microsoft Office 365 as a list of tables in a relational database that can be queried using standard SQL statements.

Groups

The Office365 table Groups.

Table Specific Information

Groups require Administrator permissions. To work with them, you must create your own custom OAuth App and set the appropriate OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret. In this app, you must configure it to request the Group.Read.All and the Group.ReadWrite.All permissions. This can be done at https://apps.dev.microsoft.com, or in the App Registrations panel at http://portal.azure.com. See Creating a Custom OAuth Application for more details on creating a custom app.

To authorize Groups permissions, an administrator must grant the Groups permissions for your organization at large. This can be done via the administrator authorization endpoint. Simply have the administrator navigate to the following web page and grant permissions. Then run the OAuth authorization as normal afterwards.

https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/adminconsent?client_id=[YourClientId]&redirect_uri=http://localhost:33333

Note that if your organization has multiple tenants, you may replace the /common/ in the URL with the tenant ID to indicate which tenant to grant permissions for.

Messages

The Office365 table Messages.

Table Specific Information
Select

You can retrieve all from Messages, specify a Message (Id), UserId, or ParentFolderId, or you can filter results by a certain column:

SELECT * FROM Messages WHERE Id = 'MyMessageId'

SELECT * FROM Messages WHERE UserId = 'MyUserId'

SELECT * FROM Messages WHERE ParentFolderId = 'MyParentfolderId'
SELECT * FROM Messages WHERE ParentFolderId = 'Drafts'
SELECT DisplayName, ID FROM Users WHERE DisplayName LIKE 'John%'
Insert

After the insert a new Message will be created in the User's Drafts folder.

INSERT INTO Messages (Subject, Body_Content, UserId) VALUES ('New test Email', 'Test Email created.', 'User ID goes here')

Note: To send the mail, see SendMail.

Known Issues

There's currently an issue with this table. Sometimes it may return an inconsistent number of results. That is, it can return X number of rows for some query and if you try that query again shortly after it will return a different numbers of rows, even though you haven't changed anything. Some rows may be missing.
This is a known API issue that currently has no workaround. As soon as Microsoft fixes it on their Microsoft Graph API then it will automatically work on this connector too.

That being said, there is a configuration that you can apply on the connector to retrieve all messages, but it comes with a downfall: 'events' and 'contacts' data will be returned along with 'messages' data. So we guarantee no purity of information. You will have to rely on your own filtering to distinguish between message and non-message rows.

In order to activate the configuration simply add "ClientSidePaging=true;" (without quotation marks) in the value of Other connection property.

Queries can be executed against a view as if it were a normal table.

Microsoft Office 365 Connector Views

Name Description
CalendarView Retrieve the ccurrences, exceptions, and single instances of events in a calendar view defined by a time range, from the user's default calendar, or from some other calendar of the user's.

CalendarView

Retrieve the ccurrences, exceptions, and single instances of events in a calendar view defined by a time range, from the user's default calendar, or from some other calendar of the user's.

Table Specific Information
Select

Get the occurrences, exceptions, and single instances of events in a calendar view defined by a time range, from the user's default calendar, or from some other calendar of the user's. By default only the event occurrences from the user's default calendar in the range of the last 30 days will be returned. You can filter results by CalendarId, UserId, Start_DateTime, End_DateTime.

For example the following queries will be processed server side:

SELECT * FROM CalendarView WHERE Start_DateTime >= '2019-12-10 15:00' AND End_DateTime <= '2020-01-10 14:30'
SELECT * FROM CalendarView WHERE CalendarId = 'AQMkAGRlMWQ5MDg0LWI5ZTQtNDk2Yi1hOTQ1LTU4YzFmMzEwZjlhMgBGAAAD-FjxR3cIwE6TEGSCVtIHcwcAQyR2Iw3coEOaUD1BLt0tnAAAAwcAAABDJHYjDdygQ5pQPUEu3S2cAAACC_IAAAA='

EventOccurrences

Usage information for the operation EventOccurrences.rsd.

Table Specific Information
Select

You can query EventOccurrences by specifying the Event Id, StartDatetime and EndDateTime. EventId is a required field, instead StartDatetime and EndDateTime have a default range of the last 30 days. If you query filtering only by EventId and the specific event does not exist within this time range, you will get empty results.

SELECT * FROM [EventOccurrences] WHERE ID = 'event id' AND StartDateTime = '2018/01/01' AND EndDateTime = '2018/12/31'

By default, if StartDateTime and EndDateTime filters are not specified, only the event occurrences from the user's default calendar in the range of the last 30 days will be returned. Otherwise, the query will get the Occurrences of the Event during the period specified by StartDateTime and EndDateTime.

Possible Values

AzureServicePrincipal

Data Type

string

Default Value

AzureServicePrincipal

Remarks
  • AzureServicePrincipal: Set this to authenticate as an Azure Service Principal.

Azure Authentication

This section provides a complete list of Azure authentication properties you can configure.

Property Description
AzureTenant The Microsoft Online tenant being used to access data. If not specified, your default tenant is used.
AzureEnvironment The Azure Environment to use when establishing a connection.

AzureTenant

The Microsoft Online tenant being used to access data. If not specified, your default tentant will be used.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The Microsoft Online tenant being used to access data. For instance, "example.onmicrosoft.com". Alternatively, specify the tenant ID. This value is the directory ID in the Azure Portal > Azure Active Directory > Properties.

Typically it is not necessary to specify the tenant. This can be automatically determined by Microsoft when using the OAuthGrantType set to CODE (default). However, it may fail in the case that the user belongs to multiple tenants. For instance, if an admin of domain A invites a user of domain B to be a guest user. The user will now belong to both tenants. It is a good practice to specify the tenant, although in general things should normally work without having to specify it.

The AzureTenant is required when setting OAuthGrantType to CLIENT. When using client credentials, there is no user context. The credentials are taken from the context of the app itself. While Microsoft still allows client credentials to be obtained without specifying which tenant, it has a much lower probability of picking the specific tenant you want to work with. For this reason, we require AzureTenant to be explicitly stated for all client credentials connections to ensure you get credentials that are applicable for the domain you intend to connect to.

AzureEnvironment

The Azure Environment to use when establishing a connection.

Possible Values

GLOBAL, CHINA, USGOVT, USGOVTDOD

Data Type

string

Default Value

GLOBAL

Remarks

In most cases, leaving the environment set to global will work. However, if your Azure Account has been added to a different environment, the AzureEnvironment may be used to specify which environment. The available values are GLOBAL, CHINA, USGOVT, USGOVTDOD.

This section provides a complete list of OAuth properties you can configure.

Property Description
InitiateOAuth Set this property to initiate the process to obtain or refresh the OAuth access token when you connect.
OAuthClientId The client ID assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.
OAuthClientSecret The client secret assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.
OAuthAccessToken The access token for connecting using OAuth.
OAuthSettingsLocation The location of the settings file where OAuth values are saved when InitiateOAuth is set to GETANDREFRESH or REFRESH . Alternatively, you can hold this location in memory by specifying a value starting with 'memory://'.
OAuthGrantType The grant type for the OAuth flow.

InitiateOAuth

Set this property to initiate the process to obtain or refresh the OAuth access token when you connect.

Possible Values

GETANDREFRESH

Data Type

string

Default Value

GETANDREFRESH

Remarks

The following option is supported:

  • GETANDREFRESH: Indicates that the entire OAuth Flow will be handled by the connector. If no token currently exists, it will be obtained. If a token exists, it will be refreshed when applicable.

OAuthVersion

Possible Values

1.0, 2.0

Data Type

string

Default Value

2.0

Remarks

The version of OAuth being used. The following options are available: 1.0,2.0

OAuthClientId

The client ID assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

As part of registering an OAuth application, you will receive the OAuthClientId value, sometimes also called a consumer key, and a client secret, the OAuthClientSecret.

OAuthClientSecret

The client secret assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

As part of registering an OAuth application, you will receive the client secret, also called a consumer secret. Set the client secret as the OAuthClientSecret property.

You will also receive an OAuthClientId, also called a consumer key.

OAuthAccessToken

The access token for connecting using OAuth.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The OAuthAccessToken property is used to connect using OAuth. The OAuthAccessToken is retrieved from the OAuth server as part of the authentication process. It has a server-dependent timeout and can be reused between requests.

The access token is used in place of your user name and password. The access token protects your credentials by keeping them on the server.

OAuthSettingsLocation

The location of the settings file where OAuth values are saved when InitiateOAuth is set to GETANDREFRESH or REFRESH. Alternatively, you can hold this location in memory by specifying a value starting with 'memory://'.

Data Type

string

Default Value

%APPDATA%\CData\Acumatica Data Provider\OAuthSettings.txt

Remarks

When InitiateOAuth is set to GETANDREFRESH or REFRESH, the driver saves OAuth values to avoid requiring the user to manually enter OAuth connection properties and to allow the credentials to be shared across connections or processes.

Instead of specifying a file path, you can use memory storage. Memory locations are specified by using a value starting with 'memory://' followed by a unique identifier for that set of credentials (for example, memory://user1). The identifier can be anything you choose but should be unique to the user. Unlike file-based storage, where credentials persist across connections, memory storage loads the credentials into static memory, and the credentials are shared between connections using the same identifier for the life of the process. To persist credentials outside the current process, you must manually store the credentials prior to closing the connection. This enables you to set them in the connection when the process is started again. You can retrieve OAuth property values with a query to the sys_connection_props system table. If there are multiple connections using the same credentials, the properties are read from the previously closed connection.

The default location is "%APPDATA%\CData\Acumatica Data Provider\OAuthSettings.txt" with %APPDATA% set to the user's configuration directory. The default values are

  • Windows: "register://%DSN"
  • Unix: "%AppData%..."

where DSN is the name of the current DSN used in the open connection.

The following table lists the value of %APPDATA% by OS:

Platform %APPDATA%
Windows The value of the APPDATA environment variable
Linux ~/.config

Remarks

During the authentication process, the OAuth authorization server redirects the user to this URL. This value must match the callback URL you specify in your app settings.

OAuthGrantType

The grant type for the OAuth flow.

Possible Values

CLIENT

Data Type

string

Default Value

CLIENT

Remarks

The grant type for the OAuth flow. Only the CLIENT option is supported.

OAuthAuthorizationURL

The authorization URL for the OAuth service.

The URL to retrieve the OAuth access token from.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks the first certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=example@jbexample.com". Common fields and their meanings are displayed below.

Field Meaning
CN Common Name. This is commonly a host name like www.server.com.
O Organization
OU Organizational Unit
L Locality
S State
C Country
E Email Address

If a field value contains a comma it must be quoted.

SSL

This section provides a complete list of SSL properties you can configure.

Property Description
SSLServerCert The certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL.

SSLServerCert

The certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

If using a TLS/SSL connection, this property can be used to specify the TLS/SSL certificate to be accepted from the server. Any other certificate that is not trusted by the machine is rejected.

This property can take the following forms:

Description Example
A full PEM Certificate (example shortened for brevity) -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIChTCCAe4CAQAwDQYJKoZIhv......Qw== -----END CERTIFICATE-----
A path to a local file containing the certificate C:\\cert.cer
The public key (example shortened for brevity) -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY----- MIGfMA0GCSq......AQAB -----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
The MD5 Thumbprint (hex values can also be either space or colon separated) ecadbdda5a1529c58a1e9e09828d70e4
The SHA1 Thumbprint (hex values can also be either space or colon separated) 34a929226ae0819f2ec14b4a3d904f801cbb150d

If not specified, any certificate trusted by the machine is accepted.

Certificates are validated as trusted by the machine based on the System's trust store. The trust store used is the 'javax.net.ssl.trustStore' value specified for the system. If no value is specified for this property, Java's default trust store is used (for example, JAVA_HOME\lib\security\cacerts).

Use '*' to signify to accept all certificates. Note that this is not recommended due to security concerns.

Schema

This section provides a complete list of schema properties you can configure.

Property Description
Location A path to the directory that contains the schema files defining tables, views, and stored procedures.
BrowsableSchemas This property restricts the schemas reported to a subset of the available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA, SchemaB, SchemaC.
Tables This property restricts the tables reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Tables=TableA, TableB, TableC.
Views Restricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA, ViewB, ViewC.

Location

A path to the directory that contains the schema files defining tables, views, and stored procedures.

Data Type

string

Default Value

%APPDATA%\Office365 Data Provider\Schema

Remarks

The path to a directory which contains the schema files for the connector (.rsd files for tables and views, .rsb files for stored procedures). The folder location can be a relative path from the location of the executable. The Location property is only needed if you want to customize definitions (for example, change a column name, ignore a column, and so on) or extend the data model with new tables, views, or stored procedures.

If left unspecified, the default location is "%APPDATA%\Office365 Data Provider\Schema" with %APPDATA% being set to the user's configuration directory:

Platform %APPDATA%
Windows The value of the APPDATA environment variable
Mac ~/Library/Application Support
Linux ~/.config

BrowsableSchemas

This property restricts the schemas reported to a subset of the available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Listing the schemas from databases can be expensive. Providing a list of schemas in the connection string improves the performance.

Tables

This property restricts the tables reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Tables=TableA,TableB,TableC.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Listing the tables from some databases can be expensive. Providing a list of tables in the connection string improves the performance of the connector.

This property can also be used as an alternative to automatically listing views if you already know which ones you want to work with and there would otherwise be too many to work with.

Specify the tables you want in a comma-separated list. Each table should be a valid SQL identifier with any special characters escaped using square brackets, double-quotes or backticks. For example, Tables=TableA,[TableB/WithSlash],WithCatalog.WithSchema.`TableC With Space`.

Note that when connecting to a data source with multiple schemas or catalogs, you will need to provide the fully qualified name of the table in this property, as in the last example here, to avoid ambiguity between tables that exist in multiple catalogs or schemas.

Views

Restricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA,ViewB,ViewC.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Listing the views from some databases can be expensive. Providing a list of views in the connection string improves the performance of the connector.

This property can also be used as an alternative to automatically listing views if you already know which ones you want to work with and there would otherwise be too many to work with.

Specify the views you want in a comma-separated list. Each view should be a valid SQL identifier with any special characters escaped using square brackets, double-quotes or backticks. For example, Views=ViewA,[ViewB/WithSlash],WithCatalog.WithSchema.`ViewC With Space`.

Note that when connecting to a data source with multiple schemas or catalogs, you will need to provide the fully qualified name of the table in this property, as in the last example here, to avoid ambiguity between tables that exist in multiple catalogs or schemas.

Miscellaneous

This section provides a complete list of miscellaneous properties you can configure.

Property Description
DirectoryRetrievalDepth Specify how many folders deep you want to get results for Files table. The resources directly in the root are located at depth 0. The resources one folder deeper are located at depth 1 and so on. You can specify the value -1 to get all the data in a drive no matter the depth they're in.
MaxRows Limits the number of rows returned when no aggregation or GROUP BY is used in the query. This takes precedence over LIMIT clauses.
Other These hidden properties are used only in specific use cases.
Pagesize The maximum number of results to return per page from Microsoft Office 365.
PseudoColumns This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.
Timeout The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.
UseClientSidePaging Whether or not the ADO.NET Provider for Microsoft Office 365 should use client side paging.
UserDefinedViews A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.

DirectoryRetrievalDepth

Specify how many folders deep you want to get results for Files table. The resources directly in the root are located at depth 0. The resources one folder deeper are located at depth 1 and so on. You can specify the value -1 to get all the data in a drive no matter the depth they're in.

Data Type

string

Default Value

5

Remarks

This property must be set in the connection string or the driver will use a default of DirectoryRetrievalDepth=5.

MaxRows

Limits the number of rows returned when no aggregation or GROUP BY is used in the query. This takes precedence over LIMIT clauses.

Data Type

int

Default Value

-1

Remarks

Limits the number of rows returned when no aggregation or GROUP BY is used in the query. This takes precedence over LIMIT clauses.

Other

These hidden properties are used only in specific use cases.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The properties listed below are available for specific use cases. Normal driver use cases and functionality should not require these properties.

Specify multiple properties in a semicolon-separated list.

Integration and Formatting
Property Description
DefaultColumnSize Sets the default length of string fields when the data source does not provide column length in the metadata. The default value is 2000.
ConvertDateTimeToGMT Determines whether to convert date-time values to GMT, instead of the local time of the machine.
RecordToFile=filename Records the underlying socket data transfer to the specified file.

Pagesize

The maximum number of results to return per page from Microsoft Office 365.

Data Type

int

Default Value

300

Remarks

The Pagesize property affects the maximum number of results to return per page from Microsoft Office 365. Setting a higher value may result in better performance at the cost of additional memory allocated per page consumed.

PseudoColumns

This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This setting is particularly helpful in Entity Framework, which does not allow you to set a value for a pseudo column unless it is a table column. The value of this connection setting is of the format "Table1=Column1, Table1=Column2, Table2=Column3". You can use the "*" character to include all tables and all columns; for example, "*=*".

Timeout

The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.

Data Type

int

Default Value

60

Remarks

If Timeout = 0, operations do not time out. The operations run until they complete successfully or until they encounter an error condition.

If Timeout expires and the operation is not yet complete, the connector throws an exception.

UseClientSidePaging

Whether or not the ADO.NET Provider for Microsoft Office 365 should use client side paging.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

true

Remarks

Some sources do not support server side paging. In these cases, set UseClientSidePaging to true. Otherwise, leave it as false. Setting UseClientSidePaging to true on a source that already supports paging can cause incomplete results.

UserDefinedViews

A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

User Defined Views are defined in a JSON-formatted configuration file called UserDefinedViews.json. The connector automatically detects the views specified in this file.

You can also have multiple view definitions and control them using the UserDefinedViews connection property. When you use this property, only the specified views are seen by the connector.

This User Defined View configuration file is formatted as follows:

  • Each root element defines the name of a view.
  • Each root element contains a child element, called query, which contains the custom SQL query for the view.

For example:

{
    "MyView": {
        "query": "SELECT * FROM Events WHERE MyColumn = 'value'"
    },
    "MyView2": {
        "query": "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Id IN (1,2,3)"
    }
}

Use the UserDefinedViews connection property to specify the location of your JSON configuration file. For example:

"UserDefinedViews", C:\Users\yourusername\Desktop\tmp\UserDefinedViews.json

Note that the specified path is not embedded in quotation marks.
