Configuration Attribute Types are the allowed values to configure the attribution of a Configuration to a specific area of the data solution architecture. This is defined using the Configuration Editor and governs the location in the data logistics process for which the Configuration is applied.
Each configuration property will allow a list of values to be selected, which impacts how the configuration is applied to the in-scope objects.
Attribute Type | Code | Description |
---|---|---|
Ignore | IGN | Set the Configuration Attribute to Ignore to make sure the configuration does not apply to the assigned area. |
Derived | DER | Derive the configuration using the value specified in the appropriate Expression column. Which expression column will be used depends on the Integration Template used. |
Source | SRC | Use the value as is available from the source object. This column needs to exist in the source and have the same name as specified by the Configuration Value column for the configuration in the source object. |
Default | DEF | Apply the value specified in the Configuration Default field of the Configuration as a default value / constraint for the Objects the configuration has been defined for. Note that this only applies to SQL Server, Managed Instances and Azure SQL because these database technologies support having default constraints with expression (example: GETDATE()). |
Target | TGT | Defined by the Target. |
Hash | HSH | Apply hashing logic when loading the value. |
