Valid Values
|
"id"
|
The ID of the data source
|
The ID is auto-generated when the data source is created and cannot be changed.
|
"name"
|
The name of the data source. This name is passed as a database parameter when establishing a connection to the data source with the ODBC driver, the JDBC driver, or the OData API.
|
The first character of the name must be a letter, and the name can contain only alphanumeric, underscores, and dashes.
|
"dataStore"
|
The ID of the data store on which the data source is being created. The data store defines the options that can be specified when creating the data source.
Group data sources must be created on the Hybrid Data Pipeline group data store. A group data source is comprised of multiple member data sources that connect to one or more back end data stores such as Salesforce or SQL Server.
|
The integer ID of the data store
For a group data source, this property is set to 56 to specify the DataSource Group data store.
Data store IDs can be obtained with the Get data stores call.
|
"connectionType"
|
Specifies whether the data source is a cloud, hybrid, or group data source
|
"Cloud" | "Hybrid" | Group
If set to "Cloud", the data source is accessible from the public WAN.
If set to "Hybrid" the data source is a hybrid data source. Depending on how it is configured, a hybrid data source can connect to either a public WAN data source or to a data source behind a firewall using the On-Premises Connector to create a cloud-only data source.
If set to Group, the data source is a group data source. A group data source must be created on the DataSource Group data store by setting the "dataStore" property to 56.
|
"description"
|
A description of the data source
|
A description of the data source provided by the user who created the data source
|
"sharedByAnotherUser"
|
Indicates whether the data source is being shared by another user.
Provided only when the ?details=true parameter is appended to the query and the data source is being shared by another user.
|
true when the data source is being shared by another user.
|
"sharedWithAnotherUser"
|
Indicates whether the data source is being shared with another user.
Provided only when the ?details=true parameter is appended to the query and the data source is being shared with another user.
|
true when the data source is being shared with another user.
|
"options"
|
The list of option names and values to be set on the data source. The list of allowed options depends on the data store. Data store options can be retrieved with the Get options for a data store call.
|
A comma separated list of options and their values.
The content of the options object is zero or more sets of option names and values.
|
"permissions"
|
A list of permissions associated explicitly with the data source. Permissions can only be set on a data source by an administrator when creating or updating the data source on behalf of a user.
Any permissions specified for this data source will override the permissions for the user or the user's role that own this data source. You must specify the exact set of permissions that you want to set for this data source as no permissions are inherited from the user or user's role if permissions are specified on a data source.
Permissions set on a group data source override permissions set on any of its member data sources.
|
A comma separated list of permission IDs
See Data source permissions for supported permissions.
|
"members"
|
The members object can be used to assign member data sources to a group data source. Member data sources can be assigned when a group data source is being created or added after the group data source has been created.
|
The members object includes an "id" property and an "entityPrefix" property.
The "id" specifies the ID of a member data source. The member data source cannot itself be a group data source.
The "entityPrefix" is a user-defined prefix associated with a specific data source to resolve naming conflicts. The prefix must be 1 to 64 characters in length and must be unique.
