Miscellaneous
This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.
| Property | Description |
| BatchNamingConvention | Determines the naming convention of batch files. |
| BatchSize | The maximum size of each batch operation to submit. |
| ClientCulture | This property can be used to specify the format of data (e.g., currency values) that is accepted by the client application. This property can be used when the client application does not support the machine's culture settings. For example, Microsoft Access requires 'en-US'. |
| ConnectionLifeTime | The maximum lifetime of a connection in seconds. Once the time has elapsed, the connection object is disposed. |
| ConnectOnOpen | This property specifies whether to connect to the CSV when the connection is opened. |
| CreateBatchFolder | Whether to create a folder or not when InsertMode is set to FilePerBatch. |
| Culture | This setting can be used to specify culture settings that determine how the provider interprets certain data types that are passed into the provider. For example, setting Culture='de-DE' will output German formats even on an American machine. |
| CustomHeaders | Other headers as determined by the user (optional). |
| CustomUrlParams | The custom query string to be included in the request. |
| DirectoryRetrievalDepth | Limit the subfolders recursively scanned when IncludeSubdirectories is enabled. |
| ExcludeFileExtensions | Set to true if file extensions should be excluded from table names. |
| ExcludeFiles | Comma-separated list of file extensions to exclude from the set of the files modeled as tables. |

| IncludeDropboxTeamResources | Indicates if you want to include Dropbox team files and folders. |
| IncludeFiles | Comma-separated list of file extensions to include into the set of the files modeled as tables. |
| IncludeSubdirectories | Whether to read files from nested folders. In the case of a name collision, table names are prefixed by the underscore-separated folder names. |
| InsertMode | Specifies the mode for inserting data into CSV files. |
| MaxRows | Limits the number of rows returned rows when no aggregation or group by is used in the query. This helps avoid performance issues at design time. |
| Other | These hidden properties are used only in specific use cases. |
| Pagesize | The maximum number of results to return per page from CSV. |
| PoolIdleTimeout | The allowed idle time for a connection before it is closed. |
| PoolMaxSize | The maximum connections in the pool. |
| PoolMinSize | The minimum number of connections in the pool. |
| PoolWaitTime | The max seconds to wait for an available connection. |
| PseudoColumns | This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table. |
| Readonly | You can use this property to enforce read-only access to CSV from the provider. |
| RTK | The runtime key used for licensing. |
| Timeout | The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation. |

| UseConnectionPooling | This property enables connection pooling. |
| UserDefinedViews | A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views. |
| UseRowNumbers | Set this to true if you are deleting or updating in CSV and you do not want to specify a custom schema. This will create a new column with the name RowNumber which will be used as key for that table. |
