Specifies whether the provider uses the legacy JSON parsing behavior available in earlier driver versions.

Data Type

bool

Default Value

false

Remarks

When this property is set to true, the server uses the JSON parsing behavior and feature set available in the 2017 version.

When this property is set to false, the server enables the enhanced flattening features introduced in later versions. These include the DataModel, FlattenArrays, and FlattenObjects properties, as well as dynamic flattening of tables and columns in SQL queries.

This property is useful for maintaining compatibility with legacy integrations that rely on the original JSON schema behavior.
