Advanced settings

The following table describes the advanced connection properties:

Property	Description
TrustStore File Path	The absolute path of the truststore file that contains the TLS certificate to establish a one-way or two-way secure connection with the REST API. Specify a directory path that is available on each Secure Agent machine. You can also configure the truststore file name and password as a JVM option or import the certificate to the following directory: <Secure Agent installation directory\jre\lib\security\cacerts . For the serverless runtime environment, specify the truststore file path in the serverless agent directory. For example, /home/cldagnt/SystemAgent/serverless/configurations/ssl_store/<cert_name>.jks
TrustStore Password	The password for the truststore file that contains the SSL certificate. You can also configure the truststore password as a JVM option.
KeyStore File Path	The absolute path of the keystore file that contains the keys and certificates required to establish a two-way secure communication with the REST API. Specify a directory path that is available on each Secure Agent machine. You can also configure the keystore file name and path as a JVM option or import the certificate to any directory. For the serverless runtime environment, specify the keystore file path in the serverless agent directory. For example, /home/cldagnt/SystemAgent/serverless/configurations/ssl_store/<cert_name>.jks
KeyStore Password	The password for the keystore file required for secure communication. You can also configure the keystore password as a JVM option.
Proxy Type	Type of proxy. Select one of the following options: No Proxy: Bypasses the proxy server configured in the agent or the connection properties. Platform Proxy: Considers the proxy configured in the agent. Custom Proxy: Considers the proxy configured in the connection properties.
Proxy Configuration	The format required to configure proxy. Configure proxy using the following format: <host>:<port> You cannot configure an authenticated proxy server.
Advanced Fields	Enter the arguments that the agent uses when connecting to a REST endpoint. When you specify multiple arguments, separate each argument by a semicolon. For example, connectiondelaytime:10000;retryattempts:5 You can specify the following arguments: ConnectionTimeout . The wait time in milliseconds to get a response from a REST endpoint. The connection ends after the connection timeout is over. Default is the timeout defined in the endpoint API. If you define both the REST V2 connection timeout and the endpoint API timeout, the connection ends at the shortest defined timeout. connectiondelaytime . The delay time in milliseconds to send a request to a REST endpoint. Default is 10000. retryattempts . Number of times the connection is attempted when 400 and 500 series error codes are returned in the response. Default is 3. Specify 0 to disable the retry attempts. qualifiedSchema . Determines if the schema selected is qualified or unqualified. Default is false. encodeQueryParams . Determines if query parameters in the URL must be encoded when REST V2 Connector makes API calls to a REST endpoint. Set this argument to false to skip encoding query parameters. Default is true. In a streaming ingestion and replication task, only ConnectionTimeout and retryattempts are applicable.
