Miscellaneous
This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection settings for this provider.
| 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. |
| Charset | Specifies the session character set for encoding and decoding character data transferred to and from the Microsoft Excel file. The default value is UTF-8. |
| 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'. |
| 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 | Specifies additional HTTP headers to append to the request headers created from other properties, such as ContentType and From. Use this property to customize requests for specialized or nonstandard APIs. |
| CustomUrlParams | A string of custom URL parameters to be included with the HTTP request, in the form field1=value1&field2=value2&field3=value3. |
| DefaultDomain | This property is used for the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC. |
| DirectoryRetrievalDepth | Limit the subfolders recursively scanned when IncludeSubdirectories is enabled. |
| EnableForeignKeyDetection | Whether to detect the foreign keys in ODBC. |
| FolderId | The ID of a folder in Google Drive. If set, the resource location specified by the URI is relative to the Folder ID for all operations. |
| GenerateSchemaFiles | Indicates the user preference as to when schemas should be generated and saved. |
| IncludeDropboxTeamResources | Indicates if you want to include Dropbox team files and folders. |
| IncludeDualTable | Set this property to mock the Oracle DUAL table for better compatibility with Oracle database. |
| IncludeItemsFromAllDrives | Whether Google Drive shared drive items should be included in results. If not present or set to false, then shared drive items are not returned. |
| 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. |
| MapToInt | This property controls whether or not the long type maps to SQL_INTEGER instead of SQL_BIGINT. This property is false by default. |
| MapToLongVarchar | This property controls whether or not a column is returned as SQL_LONGVARCHAR. |
| MapToWVarchar | This property controls whether or not string types map to SQL_WVARCHAR instead of SQL_VARCHAR. This property is set 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. |
| 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 Microsoft Excel from the provider. |
| 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. Use this property only in environments where the standard licensing method is unsupported or requires a runtime key. |
| StringDecode | Indicates whether to decode hexadecimal characters. |
| 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. |
| UserDefinedViews | Specifies a filepath to a JSON configuration file defining custom views. The provider automatically detects and uses the views specified in this file. |
