name

Optional

string

The friendly name of the data item collected from the data source. If not configured, the default value is the stream Id.

streamId

Optional

string

The custom stream Id used to create the streams. If not specified, the RDBMS adapter generates a default value based on the DefaultStreamIdPattern in the data source configuration.

The StreamId serves as the unique identifier of a data selection item.

A properly configured custom stream Id follows these rules:

  • Is not case-sensitive.

  • Can contain spaces.

  • Cannot start with two underscores ("__").

  • Can contain a maximum of 2000 characters.

  • Cannot use the following characters: / : ? # [ ] @ ! $ & ' ( ) { } \ * + , ; = % < > |

  • Cannot start or end with a period.

  • Cannot contain consecutive periods.

  • Cannot consist of only periods.

    The custom identifier used to create the stream. For more information on how the adapter encodes special characters in the StreamId, see Egress.

dataFilterId

Optional

string

The identifier of a data filter defined in the Data filters. By default, no filter is applied.

Note: If the specified DataFilterId does not exist, unfiltered data is sent until that DataFilterId is created.

1 ValueColumn and DataColumns are mutually exclusive. For example, if you specify ValueColumn, you cannot specify DataColumns and vice versa.
