Connection Properties

The connection properties are the various options that can be used to establish a connection. This section provides a complete list of the options you can configure in the connection settings for this provider. Click the links for further details.

For more information on establishing a connection, see Getting Started.

Authentication


PropertyDescription
AuthSchemeWhether to use Personal Access Token Authentication or OAuth Authentication when connecting to Smartsheet.
PersonalAccessTokenThe Personal Access Token that can be generated from the Smartsheet UI.

Connection


PropertyDescription
RegionThe hosting region for your Smartsheet account.

OAuth


PropertyDescription
InitiateOAuthSet this property to initiate the process to obtain or refresh the OAuth access token when you connect.
OAuthClientIdThe client Id assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.
OAuthClientSecretThe client secret assigned when you register your application with an OAuth authorization server.
OAuthAccessTokenThe access token for connecting using OAuth.
OAuthSettingsLocationThe 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://'.
CallbackURLThe OAuth callback URL to return to when authenticating. This value must match the callback URL you specify in your app settings.
OAuthVerifierThe verifier code returned from the OAuth authorization URL.

SSL


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

Firewall


PropertyDescription
FirewallTypeThe protocol used by a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallServerThe name or IP address of a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallPortThe TCP port for a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallUserThe user name to use to authenticate with a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallPasswordA password used to authenticate to a proxy-based firewall.

Proxy


PropertyDescription
ProxyAutoDetectWhen this connection property is set to True, the provider checks your system proxy settings for existing proxy server configurations (no need to manually supply proxy server details). Set to False if you want to manually configure the provider to connect to a specific proxy server.
ProxyServerThe hostname or IP address of the proxy server that you want to route HTTP traffic through.
ProxyPortThe TCP port that the proxy server (specified in the ProxyServer connection property) is running on.
ProxyAuthSchemeThe authentication method the provider uses when authenticating to the proxy server specified in the ProxyServer connection property.
ProxyUserThe username of a user account registered with the proxy server specified in the ProxyServer connnection property.
ProxyPasswordThe password associated with the user specified in the ProxyUser connection property.
ProxySSLTypeThe SSL type to use when connecting to the ProxyServer proxy.
ProxyExceptionsA semicolon separated list of destination hostnames or IPs that are exempt from connecting through the ProxyServer .

Logging


PropertyDescription
LogfileA filepath which designates the name and location of the log file.
VerbosityThe verbosity level that determines the amount of detail included in the log file.
LogModulesCore modules to be included in the log file.
MaxLogFileSizeA string specifying the maximum size in bytes for a log file (for example, 10 MB).
MaxLogFileCountA string specifying the maximum file count of log files.

Schema


PropertyDescription
LocationA path to the directory that contains the schema files defining tables, views, and stored procedures.
BrowsableSchemasThis property restricts the schemas reported to a subset of the available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC.
TablesThis property restricts the tables reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Tables=TableA,TableB,TableC.
ViewsRestricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA,ViewB,ViewC.

Caching


PropertyDescription
AutoCacheAutomatically caches the results of SELECT queries into a cache database specified by either CacheLocation or both of CacheConnection and CacheProvider .
CacheProviderThe name of the provider to be used to cache data.
CacheDriverThe database driver used to cache data.
CacheConnectionThe connection string for the cache database. This property is always used in conjunction with CacheProvider . Setting both properties will override the value set for CacheLocation for caching data.
CacheLocationSpecifies the path to the cache when caching to a file.
CacheToleranceThe tolerance for stale data in the cache specified in seconds when using AutoCache .
OfflineUse offline mode to get the data from the cache instead of the live source.
CacheMetadataThis property determines whether or not to cache the table metadata to a file store.

Miscellaneous


PropertyDescription
DefaultDomainThis property is used for the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC.
EnableForeignKeyDetectionWhether to detect the foreign keys in ODBC.
HeaderIndicates whether or not the provider should detect column names from the first row.
HideFormattingCharactersSet to True if you want to hide currency symbols and percentage signs in numeric values. This will also convert these columns from varchar to double. Only works if TypeDetectionScheme is set to RowScan and at least the first RowScanDepth values for that column are convertable to double.
IgnoreRowsNotFoundIf set to false and any of the specified Row IDs are not found, no rows will be deleted, and a 'not found' error will be returned.
IncludeDualTableSet this property to mock the Oracle DUAL table for better compatibility with Oracle database.
LimitKeySizeThe maximum length of a primary key column.
MapBigintToVarcharThis property controls whether or not the bigint type maps to SQL_VARCHAR instead of SQL_BIGINT. This property is false by default.
MapToIntThis property controls whether or not the long type maps to SQL_INTEGER instead of SQL_BIGINT. This property is false by default.
MapToLongVarcharThis property controls whether or not a column is returned as SQL_LONGVARCHAR.
MapToWVarcharThis property controls whether or not string types map to SQL_WVARCHAR instead of SQL_VARCHAR. This property is set by default.
MaximumColumnSizeThe maximum column size.
MaxRowsLimits the number of rows returned when no aggregation or GROUP BY is used in the query. This takes precedence over LIMIT clauses.
OtherThese hidden properties are used only in specific use cases.
PagesizeThe maximum number of results to return per page from Smartsheet.
PseudoColumnsSpecify a set of pseudocolumns to expose as columns.
ReadonlyYou can use this property to enforce read-only access to Smartsheet from the provider.
ReportCompatibilityLevelControls whether new functionality, such as multi-contact data is returned as: Backwards-compatible, text format (level 0, default) Multi-contact data (level 1) Multi-contact data (report-compatible, level 2) Multi-picklist data (level 3) .
RowScanDepthThe maximum number of rows to scan to look for the columns available in a table.
RTKThe runtime key used for licensing.
TimeoutThe value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.
TypeDetectionSchemeDetermines how to determine the data types of columns.
UpperCaseIdentifiersThis property reports all identifiers in uppercase. This is the default for Oracle databases and thus allows better integration with Oracle tools such as the Oracle Database Gateway.
UseFullFilePathsAsTableNamesWhether or not to include the full file path in the name of an exposed table or view, corresponding to a sheet or report.
UserDefinedViewsA filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.
UseSimpleNamesBoolean determining if simple names should be used for tables and columns.
