CloudStorage Configuration

The adapter accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the adapter, access to these internal properties is provided through the Other property.

CloudStorage Configuration Settings

DateFormat:   The date format of the file time.

This setting specifies the format of the datetime used when reporting the file's modified date. The default value is "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss" and the server time will be localized.

If this setting is set to empty string the exact value sent by the server will be returned.

Note: Sharepoint servers do not include a UTC offset in the returned time and cannot be automatically localized.

DeleteOnSuspend:   Specifies whether files may be deleted from server when message is suspended.

If true, the file on the server will be deleted in accordance with the option selected in DeleteMode even if the message is suspended.

The default value is False.

DownloadCacheFile:   When set, only new files will be downloaded from the server.

This may be set to the location of a file on disk that will hold the names of files that were previously downloaded from the server. On each PollingInterval the adapter will check to see if the file on the server exists in this list. If the file exists in this list, it is determined that the file was previously downloaded and is not downloaded on the current polling interval. The list is automatically updated on each polling interval.

DownloadCacheFileDuration:   The number of minutes that a file name will remain in the download cache.

If a file name is added to the DownloadCacheFile and is not seen on the server again within DownloadCacheFileDuration minutes, it will be removed from the cache. This can prevent the download cache file from growing too large in certain cases.

The default value is 0, meaning that files will never be removed.

This setting is only applicable if DownloadCacheFile is set.

EnableFileDetailsComparison:   Whether the receive adapter should consider metadata differences when deciding whether to download a file again.

This setting is used in conjunction with DownloadCacheFile, and is only available on the receive adapter. If DownloadCacheFile is enabled, this setting can be used to control how the receive adapter uses the download file cache information when deciding whether to download a file again. (Similar to the "Enable Timestamp Comparison" property on Microsoft's FTP BizTalk Adapter.)

If this is set to False, the receive adapter will not download a file again if the cache contains any information about it (that is, if it has been downloaded before).

If this is set to True, the receive adapter will check the metadata of the remote file against its cached metadata, and will download the file again if any of the metadata differs.

DeleteOnUploadError:   Whether to delete the remote file when an error occurs after upload begins.

If an error occurs after an upload has started, the partial upload may remain on the remote server after the error is handled. If this setting is True, the send adapter will delete the partial upload while handling the error. The default value is False.

This is only applicable to the send adapter.

DocsExportFormat:   The file format to export Google Docs files as when downloading.

This setting specifies what file format to export Google Docs as when downloading; it takes a file extension, which will be applied to the downloaded filename if necessary. Valid values (and their associated MIME types) are:

  • docx (default) - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
  • epub - application/epub+zip
  • htm or html - text/html
  • odt - application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text
  • pdf - application/pdf
  • rtf - application/rtf
  • txt - text/plain
  • zip - application/zip
You may also specify a string like [extension],[MIME type] instead of one of the file extensions above if you wish to customize the MIME type to export the file as and/or the file extension to apply to the downloaded file.

Note that this setting is only applicable to the CloudStorage Receiver, and is only valid when the ServiceProvider property is set to spGoogleDrive (3).

DrawingsExportFormat:   The file format to export Google Drawings files as when downloading.

This setting specifies what file format to export Google Drawings as when downloading; it takes a file extension, which will be applied to the downloaded filename if necessary. Valid values (and their associated MIME types) are:

  • jpg or jpeg - image/jpeg
  • pdf - application/pdf
  • png (default) - image/png
  • svg - image/svg+xml
You may also specify a string like [extension],[MIME type] instead of one of the file extensions above if you wish to customize the MIME type to export the file as and/or the file extension to apply to the downloaded file.

Note that this setting is only applicable to the CloudStorage Receiver, and is only valid when the ServiceProvider property is set to spGoogleDrive (3).

SheetsExportFormat:   The file format to export Google Sheets files as when downloading.

This setting specifies what file format to export Google Sheets as when downloading; it takes a file extension, which will be applied to the downloaded filename if necessary. Valid values (and their associated MIME types) are:

  • csv - text/csv
  • ods - application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet
  • pdf - application/pdf
  • tsv - text/tab-separated-values
  • xlsx (default) - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
  • zip - application/zip
You may also specify a string like [extension],[MIME type] instead of one of the file extensions above if you wish to customize the MIME type to export the file as and/or the file extension to apply to the downloaded file.

Note that this setting is only applicable to the CloudStorage Receiver, and is only valid when the ServiceProvider property is set to spGoogleDrive (3).

SlidesExportFormat:   The file format to export Google Slides files as when downloading.

This setting specifies what file format to export Google Slides as when downloading; it takes a file extension, which will be applied to the downloaded filename if necessary. Valid values (and their associated MIME types) are:

  • odp - application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.presentation
  • pdf - application/pdf
  • pptx (default) - application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
  • txt - text/plain
You may also specify a string like [extension],[MIME type] instead of one of the file extensions above if you wish to customize the MIME type to export the file as and/or the file extension to apply to the downloaded file.

Note that this setting is only applicable to the CloudStorage Receiver, and is only valid when the ServiceProvider property is set to spGoogleDrive (3).

SSL Configuration Settings

ReuseSSLSession:   Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to true, the adapter will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

  • The target host name is the same.
  • The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
  • The application process that calls the function is the same.
  • The logon session is the same.
  • The instance of the adapter is the same.

SSLCipherStrength:   The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library.

Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

SSLEnabledProtocols:   Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000) (Experimental)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default)
TLS1.1768 (Hex 300) (Default)
TLS1 192 (Hex C0) (Default)
SSL3 48 (Hex 30)
SSL2 12 (Hex 0C)

Note: TLS 1.1 and TLS1.2 support are only available starting with Windows 7.

Note: Enabling TLS 1.3 will automatically set UseInternalSecurityAPI to True.

SSLIncludeCertChain:   Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This setting specifies whether the transport log contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present.

If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the transport log. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

Note: When UseInternalSecurityAPI is set to True this value is automatically set to True. This is needed for proper validation when using the internal provider.

SSLSecurityFlags:   Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be or-ed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown Certificate Authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown Certificate Authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown Root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test Root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test Root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN not-matching server name).

SSLEnabledCipherSuites:   The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

The enabled cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the adapter will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when UseInternalSecurityAPI is False (default):

// The "Other" property could contain ONE of the following lines:

If SSLEnabledProtocols is configured to use TLS 1.3 the following values are supported:

  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms:   Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when UseInternalSecurityAPI is True.

This setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when UseInternalSecurityAPI is True and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the adapter will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the adapter will fail with an error.

The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:

// The "Other" could contain ALL of these lines:
UseInternalSecurityAPI=true
SSLEnabledProtocols=3072
TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa
The default value for this setting is "sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa".

In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLSNamedGroups:   The supported (EC)DHE groups.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of (EC)DHE groups that are supported for key exchange. The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1"
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096"
  • "ffdhe_6144"
  • "ffdhe_8192"

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072. This setting is only applicable when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3. Note that groups of larger size require more computational resources and will impact performance.

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms:   The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This setting holds a comma separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values are:

  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512. This setting is only applicable when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.

General Configuration Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method which does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The LocalHost configuration contains the name of the local host as obtained by the Gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the adapter initiate connections (or accept in the case of server adapters) only through that interface.

If the adapter is connected, the LocalHost configuration shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When true, the socket will send all data that is ready to send at once. When false, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this config is set to false.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Tells the adapter whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

By default the adapter will use the system security libraries to perform cryptographic functions. When set to False calls to unmanaged code will be made. In certain environments this is not desirable. To use a completely managed security implementation set this setting to True. Setting this to True tells the adapter to use the internal implementation instead of using the system's security API.

Note: This setting is static. The value set is applicable to all adapters used in the application.

When this value is set the product's system DLL is no longer required as a reference, as all unmanaged code is stored in that file.

Connections Configuration Settings

PersistedConnectionTimeout:   How long to leave a persisted connection alive.

If persisted connections are enabled and PersistedConnectionTimeout is set to a positive value, the connection will be kept alive for that number of minutes after a message transmission. If no other messages are sent over that connection during the timeout period, the adapter will disconnect from that server.

Note: the default value is 0. This value means that the connection will be kept alive unless the server disconnects it due to idling.

Supported Macros

The adapter also supports the following Macros. These values are not case sensitive and would be supplied to a property in the form %MacroName%.

TempThis is resolved to the full path to the system's temporary directory.
MessageIDGlobally unique identifier (GUID) of the message in BizTalk Server.
MessageBodyThe body of the incoming BizTalk message (only applicable for Send adapters).
SourceFileNameThe original file name. This includes the extension and excludes the file path, for example, Sample.xml
SourceFileNameNoExtThe original file name without the extension or file path, for example, Sample
RemoteFileNameThe name of the file as it was uploaded to the remote server. This includes the extension and excludes the file path, for example, Sample.xml. Valid only for AS3, FTP, and SFTP Send Adapters.
DestinationPartyName of the destination party.
DestinationPartyQualifierQualifier of the destination party.
SourcePartyName of the source party.
SourcePartyQualifierQualifier of the source party.
DateTime:CustomFormatThis special value allows you to specify your own custom time format. For instance DateTime:yyyy would be resolved to the 4 digit year.
DateThe date format yyyy-MM-dd.
DateTimeThe date format yyyy-MM-ddThhmmss.
TimeThe date format hhmmss.
DateTime_BTS2000The date format yyyyMMddhhmmssf.
DateTime.TZThe date format yyyy-MM-ddThhmmsszzz.
Time.TZThe date format hhmmsszzz.
