# atoti_directquery_synapse.ConnectionConfig

### *final class* atoti\_directquery\_synapse.ConnectionConfig

Config to connect to a Synapse database.

### Example

```pycon theme={"languages":{"custom":["/engine/python-sdk/0.9/languages/pycon.tmLanguage.json"]}}
>>> import os
>>> from atoti_directquery_synapse import ConnectionConfig
>>> connection_config = ConnectionConfig(
...     url="jdbc:sqlserver://"
...     + account_identifier
...     + ".sql.azuresynapse.net;authentication="
...     + os.environ["SYNAPSE_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD"]
...     + ";user="
...     + os.environ["SYNAPSE_USERNAME"],
...     password=os.environ["SYNAPSE_PASSWORD"],
... )
>>> external_database = session.connect_to_external_database(connection_config)
```

#### auto\_multi\_column\_array\_conversion *: [AutoMultiColumnArrayConversion](./atoti.directquery.array_conversion.auto_multi_column_array_conversion#atoti.AutoMultiColumnArrayConversion) | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None)* *= None*

When not `None`, multi-column array conversion will be performed automatically.

#### column\_clustered\_queries *: 'all' | 'feeding'* *= 'feeding'*

Control which queries will use clustering columns.

#### feeding\_query\_timeout *: Duration* *= datetime.timedelta(seconds=3600)*

Timeout for queries performed on the external database during feeding phases.

The feeding phases are:

* the initial load to feed [`aggregate_providers`](./atoti.Cube.aggregate_providers#atoti.Cube.aggregate_providers) and [`hierarchies`](./atoti.Cube.hierarchies#atoti.Cube.hierarchies);
* the refresh operations.

#### lookup\_mode *: 'allow' | 'warn' | 'deny'* *= 'warn'*

Whether lookup queries on the external database are allowed.

Lookup can be very slow and expensive as the database may not enforce primary keys.

#### max\_sub\_queries *: Annotated\[[int](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int), Field(gt=0)]* *= 500*

Maximum number of sub queries performed when splitting a query into multi-step queries.

#### password *: [str](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str) | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None)* *= None*

The password to connect to the database.

Passing it in this separate attribute prevents it from being logged alongside the connection string.

If `None`, a password is expected to be present in [`url`](#atoti_directquery_synapse.ConnectionConfig.url).

#### query\_timeout *: Duration* *= datetime.timedelta(seconds=300)*

Timeout for queries performed on the external database outside feeding phases.

#### url *: [str](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str)*

The JDBC connection string.
