Set or update a data source configuration option

Data source configuration keys are managed from the data source configuration editor.

This is accessed from the data source management screen, by selecting edit data source configuration from the settings panel.

The configuration key editor opens allowing you to add, remove and edit configuration keys.

Adding a key

  1. Click the add new button.

  2. Start typing the key name into the parameter key field. If the key is a built-in key it will appear in the auto-complete menu and can be selected from the list. If the key is a custom or plugin key then you will need to type in the complete key name, and then click the item in the dropdown once the key name is fully entered.

  3. (Optional) Select an environment if applicable.

  4. Fill in the remaining fields. Some fields will be populated by default values which can then be edited. The fields will vary depending on the type of key. Some allow you to select predefined values, others require you to enter a value into the text input box.

  5. Save the key by clicking the save icon, or select the save all button to save all edits.

Editing a key

Deleting or reverting a key

A key is removed by either resetting it to the default value (if it’s a built-in key) or deleting it (if it is a custom or plugin key).
  1. Locate the key you wish to remove in the list of configured keys.

  2. Click on either the delete () or revert () icon to remove or reset the key to the default value.

  3. A dialog box opens. Either click the delete or revert button depending on if you are deleting or resetting a value to the default.
