ExpandedToggleIcon        Connection Dialog

To connect to SendPulse, you need to specify the following parameters:

1.Client ID - your ID for SendPulse REST API.
2.Client Secret - your secret  for SendPulse REST API.

Your Client ID and Client Secret can be found in your SendPulse setup. Sign in to your SendPulse account, click User icon in the top right corner of the page. Go to Account Settings -> API. Click Activate REST API (if it is not activated yet). The ID and Secret values will be generated, and you will be able to copy them and paste into the Devart Connection Editor window.

 

In addition to the required options, Advanced connection options may be set for more fine connection tuning.

The following table describes the options that you can include in the Connection String using the Advanced Connection Editor dialog box:

 

Option

Description

Client Id

Specifies your ID for SendPulse REST API.

Connection Lifetime

Specifies the maximum lifetime (in seconds) of a connection. When a connection is returned to the pool, its creation time is compared with the current time, and the connection is destroyed if that time span exceeds the value specified by Connection Lifetime. The default value is 0 (connection always returns to pool).

Connection Timeout

Specifies the length of time (in seconds) to wait for a connection to the server before terminating the attempt and generating an error. The default value is 60.

Default Command Timeout

Specifies the time in seconds to wait while trying to execute a command before terminating the attempt and generating an error. The default value is 60.

Failover Retries

Specifies the number of retries to perform a command if it fails because of the exception, which indicates that the reason of a failure may be temporary. The default value is 7.

Initialization Command

Specifies a data source-specific command to execute immediately after the connection is established.

Local SQL Engine

Determines whether to enable local SQL processing (enabled by default). Local SQL processing allows performing complex SELECT statements that cannot be directly compiled to SendPulse API calls. In this case the data from the mentioned cloud objects is queried to the local cache, and then the query is performed against the cache.

If local SQL processing is disabled, only simple SELECT statements that can be directly translated into SendPulse API calls can be used. More complex SELECT statements will fail.

Max Pool Size

Specifies the maximum number of connections allowed in the pool. Setting the Max Pool Size value in the connection string can affect performance. The default value is 100.

Min Pool Size

Specifies the minimum number of connections allowed in the pool. The default value is 0.

NormalizeDbNames

Determines whether database object names are normalized when retrieved from the database.

Persist Security Info

Indicates if security-sensitive information, such as the password, is not returned as part of the connection if the connection is open or has ever been in an open state.

Pooling

Specifies whether, by default, the connection is drawn from the appropriate pool or is created and added to the appropriate pool.

Proxy Host

Specifies the host name or IP address of the proxy server.

Proxy Password

Specifies the password for the proxy server account.

Proxy Port

Specifies the port number of the proxy server. The default value is 3128.

Proxy User

Specifies the proxy server account name.

Readonly

Indicates whether the connection is read-only (allows only SELECT statements).

Run Once Command

Specifies a command to execute immediately after establishing the connection. Unlike Initialization Command, it is not executed for connections obtained from the connection pool.

SuppressExtendedRequests

Determines whether to suppress additional API requests required to retrieve extended data for SendPulse objects.

Token Server

Is not used for SendPulse.

UTC Dates

Converts dates to UTC format during import if set to True, and treats the date values entered by the user (in SELECT statements, etc.) as UTC dates when sending them to the data source.
