Create a connection to Confluence by navigating to the Connections page in the Sync App application and selecting the corresponding icon in the Add Connections panel. If the Confluence icon is not available, click the Add More icon to download and install the Confluence connector from the CData site.

Required properties are listed under the Settings tab. The Advanced tab lists connection properties that are not typically required.

Connecting to Confluence

You can establish a connection to any Confluence Cloud account or Confluence Server instance. To connect set the URL connection property. For example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

Authenticating to Confluence

Confluence supports the following authentication methods: Basic Authentication, standard OAuth2.0 Authentication and SSO.

Basic Authentication

Confluence Cloud Account

Aquire a Token

An API token is necessary for account authentication. To generate one, login to your Atlassian account and select API tokens > Create API token. The generated token is displayed.

Authenticate Using the Token

To authenticate to a Cloud account, provide the following (Note: Password has been deprecated for connecting to a Cloud Account and is now used only to connect to a Server Instance.):

• AuthScheme: Set this to Basic.
• User: The user to be used to authenticate with the Confluence server.
• APIToken: The API Token associated with the currently authenticated user.
• Url: The URL associated with your Jira endpoint. For example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

Confluence Server Instance

To authenticate to a Server instance, specify the following:

• AuthScheme: Set this to Basic.
• User: The user which to be used to authenticate with the Confluence instance.
• Password: The password which is used to authenticate with the Confluence server.
• Url: The URL associated with your Jira endpoint. For example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

OAuth

In all cases, you must set AuthScheme to OAuth and Scope to to the value obtained from your application settings. In all the flows described below, it is assumed that you have done so.

Web Applications

When connecting via a web application, you need to register a custom OAuth app with Confluence. See Creating a Custom OAuth App for more information. You can then use the Sync App to get and manage the OAuth token values.

Get an OAuth Access Token

Set the following connection properties to obtain the OAuthAccessToken:

• OAuthClientId: Set to the client Id in your app settings.
• OAuthClientSecret: Set to the client secret in your app settings.
• OAuthVersion: Set to 2.0.
• Url: The URL to your Confluence endpoint; for example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

Then call stored procedures to complete the OAuth exchange:

1. Call the GetOAuthAuthorizationURL stored procedure. Set the AuthMode input to WEB and set the CallbackURL input to the Redirect URI you specified in your app settings. If necessary, set the Permissions parameter to request custom permissions. The stored procedure returns the URL to the OAuth endpoint.
2. Open the URL, log in, and authorize the application. You are redirected back to the callback URL.
3. Call the GetOAuthAccessToken stored procedure. Set the AuthMode input to WEB. Set the Verifier input to the "code" parameter in the query string of the callback URL. If necessary, set the Permissions parameter to request custom permissions.

To connect to data, set the OAuthAccessToken connection property to the access token returned by the stored procedure. When the access token expires after ExpiresIn seconds, call the GetOAuthAccessToken stored procedure again to obtain a new access token.

Crowd

Set the AuthScheme to Crowd. The following connection properties are used to connect to Crowd:

• User: The CROWD user account.
• Password: The password associated with the Crowd account.
• SSOLoginURL: The login URL associated with the Crowd account. You can find the IDP URL by navigating to your application -> SSO -> SSO information -> Identity provider single sign-on URL.
• SSOAppName: The name of the application in which SSO is enabled.
• SSOAppPassword: The password of the application in which SSO is enabled.
• SSOExchangeUrl: The URL used used to exchange the SAML token for Confluence cookies. This URL may have the following formats:
  • https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlconsumer
  • https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlsso

The following is an example connection string:

AuthScheme=Crowd;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;SSOLoginURL='https://<authority>/crowd/console/secure/saml/sso.action';User=crowdUserName;Password=crowdPassword;SSOExchangeUrl=https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlconsumer;SSOAppName=CrowdAppName;SSOAppPassword=CrowdAppPassword;

Okta

Set the AuthScheme to Okta. The following connection properties are used to authenticate through Okta:

• User: Set to your Okta user.
• Password: Set to your Okta password.
• SSOLoginURL: Set to the login URL used by the SSO provider.
• SSOExchangeUrl: The URL used used to exchange the SAML token for Confluence cookies. This URL may have the following formats:
  • https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlconsumer
  • https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlsso

If you are:

• using a trusted application or proxy that overrides the Okta client request
• configuring MFA

then you need to use combinations of SSOProperties input parameters to authenticate using Okta. Otherwise, you do not need to set any of these values.

In SSOProperties when required, set these input parameters:

• APIToken: When authenticating a user via a trusted application or proxy that overrides the Okta client request context, set this to the API Token the customer created from the Okta organization.
• MFAType: Set this if you have configured the MFA flow. Currently we support the following types: OktaVerify, Email, and SMS.
• MFAPassCode: Set this only if you have configured the MFA flow. If you set this to empty or an invalid value, the Sync App issues a one-time password challenge to your device or email. After the passcode is received, reopen the connection where the retrieved one-time password value is set to the MFAPassCode connection property.
• MFARememberDevice: Okta supports remembering devices when MFA is required. If remembering devices is allowed according to the configured authentication policies, the Sync App sends a device token to extend MFA authentication lifetime. This property is, by default, set to True. Set this to False only if you do not want MFA to be remembered.

Example connection string:

AuthScheme=Okta;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;SSOLoginURL='https://example.okta.com/home/appType/0bg4ivz6cJRZgCz5d6/46';User=oktaUserName;Password=oktaPassword;SSOExchangeUrl=https://<authority of Confluence instance>/plugins/servlet/samlconsumer;

Fine Tuning Data Access

You can use the following properties to gain more control over the data returned from Confluence:

• IncludeArchivedSpaces: Include content from archived spaces in the result. This defaults to false.
• SpaceKey: Search results will only display contents from the specified space.
• Timezone: The timezone of the Confluence instance. The appropriate datetime filters will be used to retrieve results in accordance with the specified timezone.

This section details a selection of advanced features of the Confluence Sync App.

User Defined Views

The Sync App allows you to define virtual tables, called user defined views, whose contents are decided by a pre-configured query. These views are useful when you cannot directly control queries being issued to the drivers. See User Defined Views for an overview of creating and configuring custom views.

SSL Configuration

Use SSL Configuration to adjust how Sync App handles TLS/SSL certificate negotiations. You can choose from various certificate formats; see the SSLServerCert property under "Connection String Options" for more information.

Firewall and Proxy

Configure the Sync App for compliance with Firewall and Proxy, including Windows proxies and HTTP proxies. You can also set up tunnel connections.

Query Processing

The Sync App offloads as much of the SELECT statement processing as possible to Confluence and then processes the rest of the query in memory (client-side).

See Query Processing for more information.

Logging

See Logging for an overview of configuration settings that can be used to refine CData logging. For basic logging, you only need to set two connection properties, but there are numerous features that support more refined logging, where you can select subsets of information to be logged using the LogModules connection property.

Customizing the SSL Configuration

By default, the Sync App attempts to negotiate SSL/TLS by checking the server's certificate against the system's trusted certificate store.

To specify another certificate, see the SSLServerCert property for the available formats to do so.

Client SSL Certificates

The Confluence Sync App also supports setting client certificates. Set the following to connect using a client certificate.

• SSLClientCert: The name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
• SSLClientCertType: The type of key store containing the TLS/SSL client certificate.
• SSLClientCertPassword: The password for the TLS/SSL client certificate.
• SSLClientCertSubject: The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate.

Connecting Through a Firewall or Proxy

HTTP Proxies

To connect through the Windows system proxy, you do not need to set any additional connection properties. To connect to other proxies, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

In addition, to authenticate to an HTTP proxy, set ProxyAuthScheme, ProxyUser, and ProxyPassword, in addition to ProxyServer and ProxyPort.

Other Proxies

Set the following properties:

• To use a proxy-based firewall, set FirewallType, FirewallServer, and FirewallPort.
• To tunnel the connection, set FirewallType to TUNNEL.
• To authenticate, specify FirewallUser and FirewallPassword.
• To authenticate to a SOCKS proxy, additionally set FirewallType to SOCKS5.

Overview

This section shows the available API objects and provides more information on executing SQL to Confluence APIs.

Key Features

• The Sync App models Confluence entities like pages, blogposts, comments, attachments, spaces, audit records and users as relational views, allowing you to write SQL to query Confluence data.
• Live connectivity to these objects means any changes to your Confluence account are immediately reflected when using the Sync App.

Views

Views describes the available views. Views are statically defined to model AuditRecords, Pages, Blogposts, Comments, Attachments, Contributors, Labels, Spaces and Users.

Views are composed of columns and pseudo columns. Views are similar to tables in the way that data is represented; however, views do not support updates. Entities that are represented as views are typically read-only entities. Often, a stored procedure is available to update the data if such functionality is applicable to the data source.

Queries can be executed against a view as if it were a normal table, and the data that comes back is similar in that regard.

Dynamic views, such as queries exposed as views, and views for looking up specific combinations of project_team work items are supported.

Designations of certificate stores are platform-dependent.

The following are designations of the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:

MY	A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys.
CA	Certifying authority certificates.
ROOT	Root certificates.
SPC	Software publisher certificates.

In Java, the certificate store normally is a file containing certificates and optional private keys.

When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (for example, PKCS12 certificate store).

The type of key store containing the TLS/SSL client certificate.

Remarks

This property can take one of the following values:

USER - default	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user. Note that this store type is not available in Java.
MACHINE	For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store. Note that this store type is not available in Java.
PFXFILE	The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS12) file containing certificates.
PFXBLOB	The certificate store is a string (base-64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS12) format.
JKSFILE	The certificate store is the name of a Java key store (JKS) file containing certificates. Note that this store type is only available in Java.
JKSBLOB	The certificate store is a string (base-64-encoded) representing a certificate store in JKS format. Note that this store type is only available in Java.
PEMKEY_FILE	The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate.

Remarks

If the certificate store is of a type that requires a password, this property is used to specify that password to open the certificate store.

The subject of the TLS/SSL client certificate.

Remarks

When loading a certificate the subject is used to locate the certificate in the store.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property. If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks the first certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For example, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, [email protected]". The common fields and their meanings are shown below.

Field	Meaning
CN	Common Name. This is commonly a host name like www.server.com.
O	Organization
OU	Organizational Unit

Property	Description
FirewallType	The protocol used by a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallServer	The name or IP address of a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallPort	The TCP port for a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallUser	The user name to use to authenticate with a proxy-based firewall.
FirewallPassword	A password used to authenticate to a proxy-based firewall.

The protocol used by a proxy-based firewall.

Remarks

This property specifies the protocol that the Sync App will use to tunnel traffic through the FirewallServer proxy. Note that by default, the Sync App connects to the system proxy; to disable this behavior and connect to one of the following proxy types, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

Type	Default Port	Description
TUNNEL	80	When this is set, the Sync App opens a connection to Confluence and traffic flows back and forth through the proxy.
SOCKS4	1080	When this is set, the Sync App sends data through the SOCKS 4 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort and passes the FirewallUser value to the proxy, which determines if the connection request should be granted.
SOCKS5	1080	When this is set, the Sync App sends data through the SOCKS 5 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort. If your proxy requires authentication, set FirewallUser and FirewallPassword to credentials the proxy recognizes.

To connect to HTTP proxies, use ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate to HTTP proxies, use ProxyAuthScheme, ProxyUser, and ProxyPassword.

The name or IP address of a proxy-based firewall.

Remarks

This property specifies the IP address, DNS name, or host name of a proxy allowing traversal of a firewall. The protocol is specified by FirewallType: Use FirewallServer with this property to connect through SOCKS or do tunneling. Use ProxyServer to connect to an HTTP proxy.

Note that the Sync App uses the system proxy by default. To use a different proxy, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

The TCP port for a proxy-based firewall.

Remarks

This specifies the TCP port for a proxy allowing traversal of a firewall. Use FirewallServer to specify the name or IP address. Specify the protocol with FirewallType.

The user name to use to authenticate with a proxy-based firewall.

Remarks

The FirewallUser and FirewallPassword properties are used to authenticate against the proxy specified in FirewallServer and FirewallPort, following the authentication method specified in FirewallType.

A password used to authenticate to a proxy-based firewall.

Remarks

This property is passed to the proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort, following the authentication method specified by FirewallType.

This section provides a complete list of the Proxy properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.

---

Property	Description
ProxyAutoDetect	This indicates whether to use the system proxy settings or not. This takes precedence over other proxy settings, so you'll need to set ProxyAutoDetect to FALSE in order use custom proxy settings.
ProxyServer	The hostname or IP address of a proxy to route HTTP traffic through.
ProxyPort	The TCP port the ProxyServer proxy is running on.
ProxyAuthScheme	The authentication type to use to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.
ProxyUser	A user name to be used to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.
ProxyPassword	A password to be used to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.
ProxySSLType	The SSL type to use when connecting to the ProxyServer proxy.
ProxyExceptions	A semicolon separated list of destination hostnames or IPs that are exempt from connecting through the ProxyServer .

This indicates whether to use the system proxy settings or not. This takes precedence over other proxy settings, so you'll need to set ProxyAutoDetect to FALSE in order use custom proxy settings.

Remarks

This takes precedence over other proxy settings, so you'll need to set ProxyAutoDetect to FALSE in order use custom proxy settings.

To connect to an HTTP proxy, see ProxyServer. For other proxies, such as SOCKS or tunneling, see FirewallType.

The hostname or IP address of a proxy to route HTTP traffic through.

Remarks

The hostname or IP address of a proxy to route HTTP traffic through. The Sync App can use the HTTP, Windows (NTLM), or Kerberos authentication types to authenticate to an HTTP proxy.

If you need to connect through a SOCKS proxy or tunnel the connection, see FirewallType.

By default, the Sync App uses the system proxy. If you need to use another proxy, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

The TCP port the ProxyServer proxy is running on.

Remarks

The port the HTTP proxy is running on that you want to redirect HTTP traffic through. Specify the HTTP proxy in ProxyServer. For other proxy types, see FirewallType.

The authentication type to use to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

This value specifies the authentication type to use to authenticate to the HTTP proxy specified by ProxyServer and ProxyPort.

Note that the Sync App will use the system proxy settings by default, without further configuration needed; if you want to connect to another proxy, you will need to set ProxyAutoDetect to false, in addition to ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate, set ProxyAuthScheme and set ProxyUser and ProxyPassword, if needed.

The authentication type can be one of the following:

• BASIC: The Sync App performs HTTP BASIC authentication.
• DIGEST: The Sync App performs HTTP DIGEST authentication.
• NEGOTIATE: The Sync App retrieves an NTLM or Kerberos token based on the applicable protocol for authentication.
• PROPRIETARY: The Sync App does not generate an NTLM or Kerberos token. You must supply this token in the Authorization header of the HTTP request.

If you need to use another authentication type, such as SOCKS 5 authentication, see FirewallType.

A user name to be used to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

The ProxyUser and ProxyPassword options are used to connect and authenticate against the HTTP proxy specified in ProxyServer.

You can select one of the available authentication types in ProxyAuthScheme. If you are using HTTP authentication, set this to the user name of a user recognized by the HTTP proxy. If you are using Windows or Kerberos authentication, set this property to a user name in one of the following formats:

user@domain
domain\user

A password to be used to authenticate to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

This property is used to authenticate to an HTTP proxy server that supports NTLM (Windows), Kerberos, or HTTP authentication. To specify the HTTP proxy, you can set ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To specify the authentication type, set ProxyAuthScheme.

If you are using HTTP authentication, additionally set ProxyUser and ProxyPassword to HTTP proxy.

If you are using NTLM authentication, set ProxyUser and ProxyPassword to your Windows password. You may also need these to complete Kerberos authentication.

For SOCKS 5 authentication or tunneling, see FirewallType.

By default, the Sync App uses the system proxy. If you want to connect to another proxy, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.

The SSL type to use when connecting to the ProxyServer proxy.

Remarks

This property determines when to use SSL for the connection to an HTTP proxy specified by ProxyServer. This value can be AUTO, ALWAYS, NEVER, or TUNNEL. The applicable values are the following:

AUTO	Default setting. If the URL is an HTTPS URL, the Sync App will use the TUNNEL option. If the URL is an HTTP URL, the component will use the NEVER option.
ALWAYS	The connection is always SSL enabled.
NEVER	The connection is not SSL enabled.
TUNNEL	The connection is through a tunneling proxy. The proxy server opens a connection to the remote host and traffic flows back and forth through the proxy.

A semicolon separated list of destination hostnames or IPs that are exempt from connecting through the ProxyServer .

Remarks

The ProxyServer is used for all addresses, except for addresses defined in this property. Use semicolons to separate entries.

Note that the Sync App uses the system proxy settings by default, without further configuration needed; if you want to explicitly configure proxy exceptions for this connection, you need to set ProxyAutoDetect = false, and configure ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate, set ProxyAuthScheme and set ProxyUser and ProxyPassword, if needed.

This section provides a complete list of the Schema properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.

---

Property	Description
Location	A path to the directory that contains the schema files defining tables, views, and stored procedures.
BrowsableSchemas	This property restricts the schemas reported to a subset of the available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC.
Tables	This property restricts the tables reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Tables=TableA,TableB,TableC.
Views	Restricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA,ViewB,ViewC.

A path to the directory that contains the schema files defining tables, views, and stored procedures.

Remarks

The path to a directory which contains the schema files for the Sync App (.rsd files for tables and views, .rsb files for stored procedures). The folder location can be a relative path from the location of the executable. The Location property is only needed if you want to customize definitions (for example, change a column name, ignore a column, and so on) or extend the data model with new tables, views, or stored procedures.

If left unspecified, the default location is "%APPDATA%\\CData\\Confluence Data Provider\\Schema" with %APPDATA% being set to the user's configuration directory:

This property restricts the schemas reported to a subset of the available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC.

Remarks

Listing the schemas from databases can be expensive. Providing a list of schemas in the connection string improves the performance.

This property restricts the tables reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Tables=TableA,TableB,TableC.

Remarks

Listing the tables from some databases can be expensive. Providing a list of tables in the connection string improves the performance of the Sync App.

This property can also be used as an alternative to automatically listing views if you already know which ones you want to work with and there would otherwise be too many to work with.

Specify the tables you want in a comma-separated list. Each table should be a valid SQL identifier with any special characters escaped using square brackets, double-quotes or backticks. For example, Tables=TableA,[TableB/WithSlash],WithCatalog.WithSchema.`TableC With Space`.

Note that when connecting to a data source with multiple schemas or catalogs, you will need to provide the fully qualified name of the table in this property, as in the last example here, to avoid ambiguity between tables that exist in multiple catalogs or schemas.

Restricts the views reported to a subset of the available tables. For example, Views=ViewA,ViewB,ViewC.

Remarks

Listing the views from some databases can be expensive. Providing a list of views in the connection string improves the performance of the Sync App.

This property can also be used as an alternative to automatically listing views if you already know which ones you want to work with and there would otherwise be too many to work with.

Specify the views you want in a comma-separated list. Each view should be a valid SQL identifier with any special characters escaped using square brackets, double-quotes or backticks. For example, Views=ViewA,[ViewB/WithSlash],WithCatalog.WithSchema.`ViewC With Space`.

Note that when connecting to a data source with multiple schemas or catalogs, you will need to provide the fully qualified name of the table in this property, as in the last example here, to avoid ambiguity between tables that exist in multiple catalogs or schemas.

This section provides a complete list of the Miscellaneous properties you can configure in the connection string for this provider.

---

Property	Description
IncludeArchivedSpaces	Whether to include content from archived spaces in the result. This defaults to false.
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 Confluence.
PseudoColumns	This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.
SpaceKey	By specifying the SpaceKey, the search results will only display contents from this specific space.
Timeout	The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.
UserDefinedViews	A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.

Whether to include content from archived spaces in the result. This defaults to false.

Remarks

If this property is set to true, content such as comments, attachments, pages and blogspots belonging to an archived space will be included in the result.

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.

Remarks

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.

These hidden properties are used only in specific use cases.

Remarks

The properties listed below are available for specific use cases. Normal driver use cases and functionality should not require these properties.

Specify multiple properties in a semicolon-separated list.

Integration and Formatting

DefaultColumnSize	Sets the default length of string fields when the data source does not provide column length in the metadata. The default value is 2000.
ConvertDateTimeToGMT	Determines whether to convert date-time values to GMT, instead of the local time of the machine.
RecordToFile=filename	Records the underlying socket data transfer to the specified file.

The maximum number of results to return per page from Confluence.

Remarks

The Pagesize property affects the maximum number of results to return per page from Confluence. Setting a higher value may result in better performance at the cost of additional memory allocated per page consumed.

This property indicates whether or not to include pseudo columns as columns to the table.

Remarks

This setting is particularly helpful in Entity Framework, which does not allow you to set a value for a pseudo column unless it is a table column. The value of this connection setting is of the format "Table1=Column1, Table1=Column2, Table2=Column3". You can use the "*" character to include all tables and all columns; for example, "*=*".

By specifying the SpaceKey, the search results will only display contents from this specific space.

Remarks

If SpaceKey is specified both in the SQL query as well as a connection property, the value in the SQL query will take precedence over the connection property.

The value in seconds until the timeout error is thrown, canceling the operation.

Remarks

If Timeout = 0, operations do not time out. The operations run until they complete successfully or until they encounter an error condition.

If Timeout expires and the operation is not yet complete, the Sync App throws an exception.

A filepath pointing to the JSON configuration file containing your custom views.

Remarks

User Defined Views are defined in a JSON-formatted configuration file called UserDefinedViews.json. The Sync App automatically detects the views specified in this file.

You can also have multiple view definitions and control them using the UserDefinedViews connection property. When you use this property, only the specified views are seen by the Sync App.

This User Defined View configuration file is formatted as follows:

• Each root element defines the name of a view.
• Each root element contains a child element, called query, which contains the custom SQL query for the view.

For example:

{
	"MyView": {
		"query": "SELECT * FROM Pages WHERE MyColumn = 'value'"
	},
	"MyView2": {
		"query": "SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Id IN (1,2,3)"
	}
}

Use the UserDefinedViews connection property to specify the location of your JSON configuration file. For example:

"UserDefinedViews", "C:\\Users\\yourusername\\Desktop\\tmp\\UserDefinedViews.json"
