Connection details

Connection details

The following table describes the basic connection properties:
Property
Description
Connection Name
Name of the connection.
Each connection name must be unique within the organization. Connection names can contain alphanumeric characters, spaces, and the following special characters: _ . + -,
Maximum length is 255 characters.
Description
Description of the connection. Maximum length is 4000 characters.
Type
JDBC V2
Runtime Environment
The name of the runtime environment where you want to run tasks.
Select a Secure Agent or serverless runtime environment.
For more information about how to configure a serverless environment, see Use the serverless runtime environment.
JDBC Driver Class Name
Name of the JDBC driver class.
For example, to connect to Aurora PostgreSQL, specify the following driver class name: org.postgresql.Driver
For more information about which driver class to use with specific databases, see the corresponding third-party vendor documentation.
Connection String
Connection string to connect to the database.
Use the following format to specify the connection string:
jdbc:<subprotocol>:<subname>
For example, the connection string for the Aurora PostgreSQL database type is
jdbc:postgresql://<host>:<port>[/dbname]
.
For more information about the connection string to use with specific drivers, see the corresponding third-party vendor documentation.
You can also connect to SSL-enabled Aurora PostgreSQL databases in mappings in advanced mode.
User Name
The user name to connect to the database.
Password
The password to connect to the database.

Advanced settings

The following table describes the advanced connection properties:
Property
Description
Database Type
The database type to which you want to connect.
Select one of the following database types:
  • PostgreSQL. Connect to the Aurora PostgreSQL database hosted in the Amazon Web Services or the Microsoft Azure environment.
  • Azure SQL Database. Connect to Azure SQL Database hosted in the Microsoft Azure environment.
  • Others. Connect to any database that supports the Type 4 JDBC driver, such as Salesforce Data Cloud.
Default is Others.
Schema Name
The schema name used for the JDBC object.
If you don't specify the schema name, all the schemas available in the database are listed.
To read from
or write to
 Oracle public synonyms, enter PUBLIC.
Connection Environment SQL
The SQL statement to set up the database environment when you connect to a PostgreSQL database. The database environment applies for the entire session that uses this connection.
For example, you can enter this statement to set the time zone:
SET timezone to 'America/New_York';
Additional Security Properties
Masks sensitive and confidential data of the connection string that you don't want to display in the session log.
Specify the part of the connection string that you want to mask.
When you create a connection, the string you enter in this field appends to the string that you specified in the
Connection String
 field.
Enable Auto Commit
1
Specifies whether the driver supports connections to automatically commit data to the database when you run an SQL statement.
When disabled, the driver does not support connections to automatically commit data even if the auto-commit mode is enabled in the JDBC driver.
Default is disabled.
Support Mixed-Case Identifiers
Indicates whether the database supports case-sensitive identifiers.
When enabled, the Secure Agent encloses all identifiers within the character selected for the SQL Identifier Character property.
Default is disabled.
SQL Identifier Character
Type of character that the database uses to enclose delimited identifiers in SQL queries. The available characters depend on the database type.
Select
None
 if the database uses regular identifiers. When the Secure Agent generates SQL queries, it does not place delimited characters around any identifiers.
Select a character from the list based on what delimiter the database uses for identifiers. When the Secure Agent generates SQL queries, it encloses delimited identifiers within this character.
1
Doesn't apply to mappings in advanced mode.
