Field | Description |
Server URL | This is the OData service endpoint to initiate communication with the OData provider. |
Connection TimeOut | The number of milliseconds a connection waits before canceling its attempt to connect to the resource. If you specify 0, the connection waits indefinitely. Specify a value other than 0 to avoid using a socket with no timeout. |
Connection Retry Count | The number of times Integration Cloud should attempt to initialize the connection at startup if the initial attempt fails. Integration Cloud retries to establish a connection when an I/O error occurs while sending the request message to the backend. If an I/O error occurs when Integration Cloud is reading a response back from the backend, it will retry only if the Retry on Response Failure option is selected. |
Retry on Response Failure | Whether Integration Cloud should attempt to resend the request when the response has failed, even though the request was sent successfully. Select this option if you want to re-establish the connection. |
Username | This is the user account name on the OData provider that the Account will use to connect to the OData provider. |
Password | Provide the password for the user name provided in the Username field. |
Authorization Type | The type of HTTP authorization scheme to use for the connection. If you select none, no additional authorization scheme will be executed at run time. For example, when you specify a Username and Password, and also select none, you do not specify a value for the Authorization Type, so the user credentials are not inserted into an Authorization header. If you enter the Username and Password, then set the authorization type as basic. Basic refers to HTTP Basic Authentication. This option can be used if the Application requires or supports HTTP Basic authentication using a username and password. If you enter the username and password, then set the authorization type as basic. |
Caching | Select this option if you want the OData v2.0 Application to cache the backend metadata. Caching of the metadata significantly increases the performance of a request sent. By default, the cache will be refreshed every 12 hours. It is recommended to enable the cache to increase the performance. |
