Miscellaneous
This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.
| Property | Description |
| 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. |
| Header | Specifies whether the first row of the data is treated as column headers or not. |
| HideFormattingCharacters | Specifies whether to hide formatting characters, such as currency symbols and percentage signs, in numeric values. When enabled, numeric columns are converted from varchar to double. |
| IgnoreRowsNotFound | Specifies whether the deletion operation should proceed if any specified Row IDs are not found. |
| 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 Smartsheet, 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 Smartsheet from the provider. |
| ReportCompatibilityLevel | Specifies the level of compatibility for the returned data, determining the format and functionality provided in query results. |
| RowScanDepth | The maximum number of rows to scan to look for the columns available in a table. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| TypeDetectionScheme | Specifies the method used to determine the data types of columns, such as by scanning rows, analyzing column formats, or treating all columns as strings. |
| UseConnectionPooling | Enables the connection pooling feature, which allows the provider to reuse existing connections instead of creating new ones for each request. |
| UseFullFilePathsAsTableNames | Specifies whether table and view names corresponding to sheets and reports should include the full file path or only the file name. |
| UseIdAsTableName | Specifies whether sheet and report IDs, rather than their names, are used as table identifiers. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
| UseSimpleNames | Boolean determining if simple names should be used for tables and columns. |
| ValueSource | Specifies whether the driver retrieves cell values from the Value fields, the DisplayValue field, or automatically selects based on availability. |
