Connection String Parameters - BigCommerce ODBC Driver |
|
The following table lists the connection string parameters for BigCommerce.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Used to specify the BigCommerce API version. The choice of the API version will impact the scope of BigCommerce objects and fields available to you. Supported values:
|
|
|
The authentication type to use when connecting to BigCommerce.
|
|
|
The HTTP address of the BigCommerce server to connect to. |
|
|
Used to supply a unique User ID for connecting to a BigCommerce account. |
|
|
Used to supply a Legacy Token to login to BigCommerce. For information on obtaining an authentication token, see Obtaining Legacy Token. To save your authentication token in the DSN settings, select the |
|
|
Used to identify the store you are logging into.
See Obtaining OAuth Credentials for more information.
|
|
|
Used to supply a unique Client ID for your app. |
|
|
Used to supply a unique Access Token for your app. To save your access token in the DSN settings, select the |
Proxy Settings |
|
|
|
The proxy hostname or IP address. |
|
|
The proxy port. |
|
|
The proxy username. |
|
|
The proxy password. |
Advanced Settings |
|
|
|
Some parameters don't accept null values when retrieving metadata. If a third-party tool passes a null value to such a parameter, the driver returns an error. By default, these options are enabled for compatibility with such third-party tools. |
|
|
|
|
|
The time (in seconds) to wait for a connection to open before terminating an attempt. The default value is 60. |
ODBC Behavior |
Sets the behavior corresponding to the ODBC specification version expected by a third-party tool. The behavior of the ODBC driver can be changed by calling the SQLSetEnvAttr function to set the SQL_ATTR_ODBC_VERSION environment attribute. Some third-party tools expect the driver to exhibit ODBC 2.x behavior, but forget to call SQLSetEnvAttr with the needed version, or pass an incorrect value. In this case, the behavior can be explicitly set in the connection string.
0
The default value. ODBC behavior is determined by a third-party tool.
2
ODBC 2.x behavior is explicitly set.
3
ODBC 3.x behavior is explicitly set.
|
|
|
The time to wait for a query execution result before terminating and generating an error. |
|
|
Enables the use of local regional settings when converting numbers to strings. |
|
|
Enables the use of local regional settings when converting dates and times to strings. |
|
|
Use the parameter to specify whether the driver must return foreign keys. Retrieving metadata about foreign key constraints is a time-consuming operation; many third-party tools request foreign key metadata even whey they do not actually need this information. Note that enabling the parameter may degrade performance of data access operations. The default value is False. |
String Types |
Sets the string value types returned by the driver as Default, ANSI, or Unicode.
Default
The driver defines the string types.
Ansi
All string types are returned as SQL_CHAR, SQL_VARCHAR, and SQL_LONGVARCHAR.
Unicode
All string types are returned as SQL_WCHAR, SQL_WVARCHAR, and SQL_WLONGVARCHAR.
Note: Set the parameter to
Ansi or Unicode if your third-party tool supports only ANSI or Unicode strings.
|
|
|
Specifies whether all the datetime values retrieved from the data source are returned as UTC values or converted to local time and whether the date values specified on the application side (e.g., in SQL statements) are considered UTC or local. The default value is false. |
