For more information on establishing a connection, see Getting Started.
| Property | Description |
| AuthScheme | The type of authentication to use when connecting to Salesforce Data Cloud. |
| User | Specifies the user ID of the authenticating Salesforce Data Cloud user account. |
| Password | Specifies the password of the authenticating user account. |
| Property | Description |
| DataSpace | Limits the objects exposed as views by the provider to the objects in the specified data space. |
| LoginUrl | URL of the Salesforce Data Cloud server used for logging in. |
| TenantEndpoint | The Salesforce Data Cloud instance URL for the Salesforce Data Cloud. |
| 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 Salesforce Data Cloud 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. |
| PKCEVerifier | The PKCE code verifier generated from executing the GetOAuthAuthorizationUrl stored procedure for PKCE authentication schemes. |
| 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 |
| OAuthJWTCert | The JWT Certificate store. |
| OAuthJWTCertType | The type of key store containing the JWT Certificate. |
| OAuthJWTCertPassword | The password for the OAuth JWT certificate used to access a certificate store that requires a password. If the certificate store does not require a password, leave this property blank. |
| OAuthJWTCertSubject | The subject of the OAuth JWT certificate used to locate a matching certificate in the store. Supports partial matches and the wildcard '*' to select the first certificate. |
| OAuthJWTIssuer | The issuer of the Java Web Token. |
| OAuthJWTSubject | The user subject for which the application is requesting delegated access. |
| Property | Description |
| SSLServerCert | Specifies the certificate to be accepted from the server when connecting using TLS/SSL. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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 . |

| Offline | Get the data from the specified cache database instead of live Salesforce Data Cloud data. |
| CacheMetadata | Determines whether the provider caches table metadata to a file-based cache database. |
| Property | Description |
| BatchSize | Specifies the maximum number of rows included in each batch operation. Set to 0 to submit the entire batch as a single request. |
| DefaultDomain | This property is used for the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC. |
| EnableForeignKeyDetection | Whether to detect the foreign keys in ODBC. |
| IncludeDualTable | Set this property to mock the Oracle DUAL table for better compatibility with Oracle database. |
| LimitKeySize | The maximum length of a primary key column. |
| MapBigintToVarchar | This property controls whether or not the bigint type maps to SQL_VARCHAR instead of SQL_BIGINT. This property is false by default. |

| MaximumColumnSize | The maximum column size. |
| 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 Salesforce Data Cloud, per page. This setting overrides the default page size set by the datasource, which is optimized for most use cases. |
| 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 Salesforce Data Cloud from the provider. |

| 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. |
| UpperCaseIdentifiers | This 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. |
| UseDisplayNames | If True, the display names for the columns/tables are used instead of the API names. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
