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 Establishing a Connection.
| Property | Description |
| DeveloperToken | DeveloperToken of the currently authenticated user. |
| CustomerId | CustomerId of the currently authenticated user. |
| UseSandbox | A boolean indicating if you are using a Sandbox account. The provider makes requests to the production environment by default. |
| Property | Description |
| AccountId | The id of the account that you want to get data for. |
| Property | Description |
| AzureTenant | Identifies the Microsoft Ads tenant being used to access data, either by name (for example, contoso.omnicrosoft.com) or ID. (Conditional). |
| AzureEnvironment | Specifies the Azure network environment to which you will connect. Must be the same network to which your Azure account was added. |
| Property | Description |
| InitiateOAuth | Specifies the process for obtaining or refreshing the OAuth access token, which maintains user access while an authenticated, authorized user is working. |
| OAuthClientId | Specifies the client Id that was assigned the custom OAuth application was created. (Also known as the consumer key.) This ID registers the custom application with the OAuth authorization server. |
| OAuthClientSecret | Specifies the client secret that was assigned when the custom OAuth application was created. (Also known as the consumer secret ). This secret registers the custom application with the OAuth authorization server. |
| OAuthAccessToken | A token received after authentication to the OAuth network, granting the user access. The access token is used in place of the user's login ID and password, which stay on the server. |
| OAuthSettingsLocation | Specifies the location of the settings file where OAuth values are saved. Storing OAuth settings in a central location avoids the need for users to enter OAuth connection properties manually each time they log in. It also enables credentials to be shared across connections or processes. |
| CallbackURL | The URL users return to after authenticating to Microsoft Ads via OAuth. |
| OAuthVerifier | Specifies a verifier code returned from the OAuthAuthorizationURL . Used when authenticating to OAuth on a headless server, where a browser can't be launched. Requires both OAuthSettingsLocation and OAuthVerifier to be set. |
| OAuthRefreshToken | Gets and refreshes the currently-active OAuth Access Token. |
| OAuthExpiresIn | Specifies the duration in seconds, of an OAuth Access Token's lifetime. The token can be reissued to keep access alive as long as the user keeps working. |
| OAuthTokenTimestamp | Displays a Unix epoch timestamp in milliseconds that shows how long ago the current Access Token was created. |
| Property | Description |
| SSLServerCert | Specifies the certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL. |
| Property | Description |
| FirewallType | Specifies the protocol the provider uses to tunnel traffic through a proxy-based firewall. |
| FirewallServer | Identifies the IP address, DNS name, or host name of a proxy used to traverse a firewall and relay user queries to network resources. |
| FirewallPort | Specifies the TCP port to be used for a proxy-based firewall. |
| FirewallUser | Identifies the user ID of the account authenticating to a proxy-based firewall. |
| FirewallPassword | Specifies the password of the user account authenticating to a proxy-based firewall. |
| Property | Description |
| ProxyAutoDetect | Specifies whether the provider checks your system proxy settings for existing proxy server configurations, rather than using a manually specified proxy server. |
| ProxyServer | The hostname or IP address of the proxy server that you want to route HTTP traffic through. |
| ProxyPort | The TCP port on your specified proxy server (set in the ProxyServer connection property) that has been reserved for routing HTTP traffic to and from the client. |
| ProxyAuthScheme | Specifies the authentication method the provider uses when authenticating to the proxy server specified in the ProxyServer connection property. |
| ProxyUser | The username of a user account registered with the proxy server specified in the ProxyServer connection property. |
| ProxyPassword | The password associated with the user specified in the ProxyUser connection property. |
| ProxySSLType | The SSL type to use when connecting to the proxy server specified in the ProxyServer connection property. |
| ProxyExceptions | A semicolon separated list of destination hostnames or IPs that are exempt from connecting through the proxy server set in the ProxyServer connection property. |
| Property | Description |
| Logfile | Specifes the file path to the log file where the provider records its activities, such as authentication, query execution, and connection details. |
| Verbosity | Specifies the verbosity level of the log file, which controls the amount of detail logged. Supported values range from 1 to 5. |
| LogModules | Specifies the core modules to include in the log file. Use a semicolon-separated list of module names. By default, all modules are logged. |
| MaxLogFileSize | Specifies the maximum size of a single log file in bytes. For example, '10 MB'. When the file reaches the limit, the provider creates a new log file with the date and time appended to the name. |
| MaxLogFileCount | Specifies the maximum number of log files the provider retains. When the limit is reached, the oldest log file is deleted to make space for a new one. |
| Property | Description |
| Location | Specifies the location of a directory containing schema files that define tables, views, and stored procedures. Depending on your service's requirements, this may be expressed as either an absolute path or a relative path. |
| BrowsableSchemas | Optional setting that restricts the schemas reported to a subset of all available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC . |
| Tables | Optional setting that restricts the tables reported to a subset of all available tables. For example, Tables=TableA,TableB,TableC . |
| Views | Optional setting that restricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA,ViewB,ViewC . |
| Property | Description |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| ReportScopes | Allows you to narrow or broaden the scope of access when getting data from Reporting service views. |
| 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. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
