Database Connections
|
Database formats include a Database Connection parameter that defines and stores authentication information. For general information about sharing database connections, please see Using Database Connections. Note that Database Connection parameters may differ slightly, depending on context and/or database format. |
Connection
Select an existing connection, or Add Database Connection to define a new connection.
The new connection can be made visible only to the current user, or can be shared among multiple users.
Connection Parameters
Cosmos DB Account ID
This value is the same value as the dataset. It can be the name of the account (for example contoso), or the URL for the account (for example, https://contoso.documents.azure.com).
Paths in the URL are ignored.
Master Key
The Master Key is required for the DocumentDB writer to perform writes. The Master Key can be obtained from your DocumentDB administrator.
Note that Resource tokens are not supported.
Database
In DocumentDB, Collections are organized under Databases. This parameter specifies the Database(s) that will contain the Collections.
The value(s) must correspond to the id values of Databases.
Advanced
Concurrent Requests
To improve performance, the DocumentDB Writer issues requests concurrently. This parameter specifies how many requests may be in progress at once.
If your network and Collection provisioned throughput supports heavier usage, you can increase this number to improve performance. If writes are failing due to throttling, try reducing this number.
Default: 4
Retries After Throttling
This parameter specifies the maximum number of times to reattempt a request that is rate-limited by DocumentDB. The server performs rate-limiting when the size and frequency of requests exceeds the Collection’s provisioned throughput.
If the request continues to be rate-limited after retrying for the specified number of times, the writer logs a warning and skips the request.
Default: 3
