Microsoft OneDrive Connection Details

Introduction

Connector Version

This documentation is based on version 23.0.8804 of the connector.

Get Started

Microsoft OneDrive Version Support

Microsoft OneDrive and OneDrive for Business accounts are supported via the Microsoft Graph API v1.0.

Establish a Connection

Connect to Microsoft OneDrive

Authenticate using Microsoft Entra service principal

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

Use Microsoft Entra service principal

Microsoft Entra 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 Microsoft Entra 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 OneDrive supports authentication using Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft Entra service principal, both of which are OAuth-based.

    This topic describes how to:

    • create and register custom OAuth application for Microsoft Entra ID or Microsoft Entra service principal
    • provide Admin Consent to a custom OAuth application
    Microsoft Entra ID

    In portal.azure.com:

    1. Log in to https://portal.azure.com.
    2. In the left-hand navigation pane, select Microsoft Entra ID, 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 Microsoft Entra ID Tenant when establishing a connection with the Microsoft OneDrive 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 OneDrive 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 add the delegated permissions Files.ReadWrite.All or Files.Read.All. Hit the 'Grant admin consent' button afterwards for the new permissions to take effect.
    11. Save your changes.
    12. If you have specified the use of permissions that require admin consent, you can grant them from the current tenant on the API Permissions page.
    Microsoft Entra service principal

    To use Microsoft Entra service principal authentication, you must set up the ability to assign a role to the authentication application, then register an application with the Microsoft Entra ID 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 OneDrive opens the Add role assignment page.
    7. Assign your custom Microsoft Entra ID application the role of Owner.

    Some custom applications require administrative permissions to operate within a Microsoft Entra ID 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.

    .

  • Register an application with a Microsoft Entra ID 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 Microsoft Entra ID application, as described in

    Creating a Custom OAuth Application

    Microsoft OneDrive supports authentication using Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft Entra service principal, both of which are OAuth-based.

    1. Log in to https://portal.azure.com.
    2. In the left-hand navigation pane, select Microsoft Entra ID, 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 Microsoft Entra ID Tenant when establishing a connection with the Microsoft OneDrive 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 OneDrive 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 add the delegated permissions Files.ReadWrite.All or Files.Read.All. Hit the 'Grant admin consent' button afterwards for the new permissions to take effect.
    11. Save your changes.
    12. If you have specified the use of permissions that require admin consent, you can grant them from the current tenant on the API Permissions page.
    Microsoft Entra service principal

    To use Microsoft Entra service principal authentication, you must set up the ability to assign a role to the authentication application, then register an application with the Microsoft Entra ID 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 OneDrive opens the Add role assignment page.
    7. Assign your custom Microsoft Entra ID application the role of Owner.

    Some custom applications require administrative permissions to operate within a Microsoft Entra ID 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.

    .

  2. Assign a role to the application:

    1. Use the search bar to search for the Subscriptions service.
    2. Open the Subscriptions page.
    3. Select the subscription to which to assign the application.
    4. Open the Access control (IAM).
    5. Select Add > Add role assignment. Microsoft OneDrive opens the Add role assignment page.
    6. Assign your custom Microsoft Entra ID application the role of Owner.

Admin consent occurs when the Admin for a Microsoft Entra ID tenant grants permissions to a custom application that explicitly requires an admin to consent to the use case.

When creating a new Microsoft Entra ID 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.

Fine-Tuning Data Access

Fine-tune Data Access

  • DirectoryRetrievalDepth: How many folders deep you want to get results for Folders, Files, SharedResources, and Permissions tables.
  • DriveId: The ID of the Drive that you want to use when getting data for tables Files, Folders, SharedResources, and Permissions.
  • ListGroupDrives: Indicates if you would like to list your group drives or not when querying the Drives table. Useful if you're using a OneDrive for Business account.

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 OneDrive 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 OneDrive and then processes the rest of the query in memory (client-side).

User Defined Views

The Microsoft OneDrive 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 Files 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 OneDrive 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 OneDrive and gets the list of tables and the metadata for the tables by calling the appropriate Web services.

Key Features

  • The connector models Microsoft OneDrive entities like Files and Folders as relational views, allowing you to write SQL to query Microsoft OneDrive data.
  • Stored procedures allow you to execute operations to Microsoft OneDrive, including retrieving the access token and keeping it refreshed in OAuth 2.0.
  • Live connectivity to these objects means any changes to your Microsoft OneDrive account are immediately reflected when using the connector.

Views

Views shows definitions from a sample OneDrive site. The actual data model

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

Stored Procedures

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

Views

Views are similar to tables in the way that data is represented; however, views are read-only.

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

Microsoft OneDrive Connector Views

Files

The OneDrive table Files in which you can view all the files in a drive.

Table Specific Information

Projection is done server-side. Also, queries that include the primary key ID and IN are executed server-side, e.g.:

SELECT Id, Name, audio_album, audio_title FROM Files WHERE ID IN ('B1E6BJ084A9133KB1!101', 'APF9D2K6WFA524Y')

Include ParentReference_DriveId and ParentReference_Id in the where clause to get the result for a particular folder, e.g.:

SELECT * FROM Files WHERE  ParentReference_DriveId = 'b!3Yqza-5FJ0usfhyH-2QafkQpf0OC0jlNh8LAETWPK6dNROPDScevTKbV-drnCFHV' And ParentReference_id = '01QFG2V52Z62HOXS5F6RHIHVT36T3Q5GKH'

File listing is done recursively via the DirectoryRetrievalDepth property. This property's default value is 5, which means it will get data only for the first 6 levels of the 'Drive' you've chosen (because the first level is located in DirectoryRetrievalDepth=0).

You can specify the value -1 to get all the files in the 'Drive' no matter the depth they're located in.

While files may be listed in this view, the contents of the files may be worked with by using stored procedures such as:

  • CopyResource - Copy a file/folder from one directory in your drive to another.
  • DeleteResource - Delete a file/folder from your drive.
  • DownloadFile - Download an existing file from your drive.
  • MoveResource - Move a file/folder from one directory in your drive to another.
  • UploadFile - Upload a new file or update content to an existing file.

FileVersions

The OneDrive table Files in which you can view all the files in a drive.

Table Specific Information
SELECT

The connector will use the Microsoft OneDrive API to process WHERE clause conditions built with the following column and operator.

  • FileId supports the '='.
  • DriveId supports the '='.
  • UserId supports the '='.

For example:

SELECT * FROM FileVersions WHERE FileId = '01CYQN2MFPR6NIWVZNMNFL3SL4E3KF7IHY' AND DriveId = 'b!GrEGWax2VE-ssnJNr1E8llqoLptvK-BGjFRpceFzFg5Nwp9Bw2xbR62J0NAouP6z'

SELECT * FROM FileVersions WHERE FileId = '01CYQN2MFPR6NIWVZNMNFL3SL4E3KF7IHY' AND createdBy_user_id = '472df319-2978-49d4-9445-9e7019def16f'

Folders

The OneDrive table Folders, which shows all the folders on a drive.

Table Specific Information

Note: See CreateFolder to create a folder.

Projection is done server-side. Also, queries that include the primary key ID and IN are executed server-side, e.g.:

SELECT Id, Name, Size, Description FROM Folders WHERE ID IN ('B1E6BJ084A9133KB1!122', 'APF9D2K6WFAAPX9')

Folder listing is done recursively via the DirectoryRetrievalDepth property. This property's default value is 5, which means it will get data only for the first 6 levels of the 'Drive' you've chosen (because the first level is located in DirectoryRetrievalDepth=0).

You can specify the value -1 to get all the folders in the 'Drive' no matter the depth they're located in.

While folders may be listed in this view, the contents of the folders may be worked with by using stored procedures such as:

SharedResources

The OneDrive table SharedResources, which shows all the shared resources on a drive.

Table Specific Information

Projection is done server-side. Also, queries that include the primary key ID and IN are executed server-side, e.g.:

SELECT Id, Name, Size, Shared_Scope FROM SharedResources WHERE ID IN ('B1E6BJ084A9133KB1!122', 'APF9D2K6WFAAPX9')

SharedResources listing is done recursively via the DirectoryRetrievalDepth property. This property's default value is 5, which means it will get data only for the first 6 levels of the 'Drive' you've chosen (because the first level is located in DirectoryRetrievalDepth=0).

You can specify the value -1 to get all the shared resources in the 'Drive' no matter the depth they're located in.

AuthScheme

The type of authentication to use when connecting to Microsoft OneDrive. Currently, only AzureServicePrincipal is supported

Possible Values

AzureServicePrincipal

Data Type

string

Default Value

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 > Microsoft Entra ID > 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.

OAuth

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

CallbackURL

The OAuth callback URL to return to when authenticating. This value must match the callback URL you specify in your app settings.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

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.

OAuthVerifier

The verifier code returned from the OAuth authorization URL.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The verifier code returned from the OAuth authorization URL. This can be used on systems where a browser cannot be launched such as headless systems.

Authentication on Headless Machines

See to obtain the OAuthVerifier value.

Set OAuthSettingsLocation along with OAuthVerifier. When you connect, the connector exchanges the OAuthVerifier for the OAuth authentication tokens and saves them, encrypted, to the specified location. Set InitiateOAuth to GETANDREFRESH to automate the exchange.

Once the OAuth settings file has been generated, you can remove OAuthVerifier from the connection properties and connect with OAuthSettingsLocation set.

To automatically refresh the OAuth token values, set OAuthSettingsLocation and additionally set InitiateOAuth to REFRESH.

OAuthRefreshToken

The OAuth refresh token for the corresponding OAuth access token.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

The OAuthRefreshToken property is used to refresh the OAuthAccessToken when using OAuth authentication.

OAuthExpiresIn

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.

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.

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 Files 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.
