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 submitted during batch operations. To submit the entire batch as a single request, set BatchSize to 0 . |
| BuiltInColumnMapping | A comprehensive list detailing the mappings of column names for the built-in fields used in MongoDB. |
| Compression | Specifies the compression method used for network communication between the client and the MongoDB server. |
| ConnectionLifeTime | Specifies the maximum lifetime of a connection in seconds. When the specified time elapses, the provider closes the connection. |
| ConnectOnOpen | Specifies whether the provider establishes a connection to MongoDB immediately upon opening the connection. Set ConnectOnOpen to True if immediate connectivity verification is necessary. |
| DataModel | By default, the provider will not automatically discover the metadata for a child table as its own distinct table. To enable this functionality, set DataModel to Relational . |
| DatetimeFormat | Determines the format of datetime values returned by the Document function. This property only takes effect when StrictMode=true. |
| FlattenArrays | This property specifies whether nested array elements are flattened into individual columns. By default, nested arrays are returned as JSON strings. Set this property to the number of elements to extract from nested arrays. |
| FlattenObjects | This property specifies whether the attributes of objects are flattened into separate columns. |
| GenerateSchemaFiles | Indicates the user preference as to when schemas should be generated and saved. |
| MaxRows | Specifies the maximum number of rows returned for queries that do not include either aggregation or GROUP BY. |
| NoCursorTimeout | The server typically terminates idle cursors after 30 minutes of inactivity to prevent excessive memory usage. Set this option to true to avoid automatic timeouts and keep your cursors active. |
| Other | Specifies additional hidden properties for specific use cases., to be used only when our Support team advises it, to address specific issues. See Remarks for details. |
| Pagesize | Specifies the maximum number of records per page the provider returns when requesting data from MongoDB. |
| PoolIdleTimeout | Specifies the maximum idle time, in seconds, that a connection can remain in the pool before being closed. Requires UseConnectionPooling=True. |
| PoolMaxSize | Specifies the maximum number of connections allowed in the connection pool. |
| PoolMinSize | Specifies the minimum number of connections to be maintained in the connection pool at all times. |
| 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. |
| PseudoColumns | Specifies the pseudocolumns to expose as table columns, expressed as a string in the format 'TableName=ColumnName;TableName=ColumnName'. |
| QueryPassthrough | Determines whether queries are sent directly to MongoDB without modification. |
| Readonly | Toggles read-only access to MongoDB from the provider. |
| ReadPreference | Set this to a strategy for reading from a replica set. Accepted values are primary, primaryPreferred, secondary, secondaryPreferred, and nearest. |
| ReadPreferenceTags | This property is used to identify and interact with one or more members of a replica set that are linked to specific tags. |
| 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. This property is only required in environments where the standard licensing method is unsupported or requires a runtime key. |
| ServiceKind | Specifies the type of service the provider can interact with. |
| SlaveOK | Determines the provider's capability to read data from secondary (slave) servers. It controls whether the provider can access and retrieve information from these backup systems. |
| Timeout | Specifies the maximum time, in seconds, that the provider waits for a server response before throwing a timeout error. |
| TypeDetectionScheme | Specifies the method for detecting metadata discovery. |
| UpdateScheme | Specifies the strategy that can be used when executing an update statement. |
| UseConnectionPooling | Enables the connection pooling feature, which allows the provider to reuse existing connections instead of creating new ones for each request. |
| UseFindAPI | Specifies whether MongoDB queries using the method db.collection.find(), allow retrieval of documents from a specific collection based on defined criteria. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file that defines custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
| WriteConcern | Determines the level of acknowledgment requested for write operations in MongoDB, applicable to standalone mongod, replica sets, or sharded clusters. |
| WriteConcernJournaled | Determines whether write operations can be recorded in the on-disk journal before being acknowledged as successful. |
| WriteConcernTimeout | The WriteConcernTimeout property specifies the maximum time (in milliseconds) that the server should wait for a write concern to be acknowledged before returning an error. |
| WriteScheme | Sets whether the object type for inserted or updated objects is determined from the existing column metadata or the input value type. |
