Miscellaneous
This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.
| Property | Description |
| BatchSize | Specifies the maximum number of rows included in each batch operation. Set to 0 to submit the entire batch as a single request. |
| ConnectionLifeTime | Specifies the maximum lifetime of a connection in seconds. When the specified time elapses, the provider closes the connection. Set to 0 or leave empty for no time limit. |
| ConnectOnOpen | Specifies whether the provider establishes a connection to ServiceNow immediately upon opening the connection. The default value is false. Enable this property only if immediate connectivity verification is necessary. |
| DisplayValue | Based on this value, the provider retrieves the display value or the actual value from the database. |
| DisplayValueColumnName | Pattern for displaying column names when DisplayValue property is set to ALL. |
| EnforceColumnValues | Controls whether available values for an element are retrieved and checked when executing INSERT or UPDATE statements. |
| ExcludeReferenceLink | Based on this value, the additional information provided for reference fields will be suppressed or not. |
| GetColumnsMetadata | Indicates the user preference as to when and how the provider should get the columns metadata. |
| MaxRows | Specifies the maximum rows returned for queries without aggregation or GROUP BY. |
| Other | Specifies additional hidden properties for specific use cases. These are not required for typical provider functionality. Use a semicolon-separated list to define multiple properties. |
| Pagesize | Specifies the maximum number of results to return from ServiceNow, per page. This setting overrides the default page size set by the datasource, which is optimized for most use cases. |
| PoolIdleTimeout | Specifies the maximum idle time, in seconds, that a connection can remain in the pool before being closed. |
| PoolMaxSize | Specifies the maximum number of connections allowed in the connection pool. The default value is 100. Set to 0 or a negative value to disable pooling. |
| PoolMinSize | Specifies the minimum number of connections maintained in the connection pool. The default value is 1. |
| PoolWaitTime | Specifies the maximum number of seconds a connection request waits for an available connection in the pool. If the wait exceeds this time, an error is returned. The default is 60 seconds. |
| PseudoColumns | Specifies the pseudocolumns to expose as table columns. Use the format 'TableName=ColumnName;TableName=ColumnName'. The default is an empty string, which disables this property. |
| Readonly | Toggles read-only access to ServiceNow from the provider. |
| RTK | Specifies the runtime key for licensing the provider. If unset or invalid, the provider defaults to the standard licensing method. Use this property only in environments where the standard licensing method is unsupported or requires a runtime key. |
| ShowDescriptions | Controls whether column and table descriptions are returned via the sys_documentation and sys_db_object API endpoints. |
| Timeout | Specifies the maximum time, in seconds, that the provider waits for a server response before throwing a timeout error. The default is 60 seconds. Set to 0 to disable the timeout. |
| UseConnectionPooling | Enables the connection pooling feature, which allows the provider to reuse existing connections instead of creating new ones for each request. |
| UseDisplayColumnNames | If True, the provider uses the display (GUI) names of columns instead of the API names. |
| UseDisplayTableNames | Boolean determining if the display names for the table should be used instead of the API names. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
