Yes | Data Source=serverName; Initial Catalog=dovetail; User Id=myUsername; Password=myPassword; | Database connection string. For MSSQL databases: Data Source=serverName; Initial Catalog=dovetail; User Id=myUsername; Password=myPassword; For Oracle databases: Data Source=OracleConnectionString;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword; |

| DovetailCRMSettings. DatabaseType |

| DovetailCRMSettings. AttachmentsFilePath |
Yes | c:\attach | The root path for saving file attachments. This can be a local path (c:\directory) or a UNC path (\server\directory) |
| DovetailCRMSettings. AttachmentMode |
No | ModeB | Specifies which sub-folder mode Dovetail Mobile Agent should use when saving attachments. NOTE: The value is NOT case-sensitive (i.e. 'modea' works as well as 'MODEA'). Valid values are: ModeA: Put all files directly into the path specified by attachPath. ModeB: Put attachments in subfolders using the CASE ID as a folder prefix. For example, if the attachPath is set to "c:\attachments", attachments from Case 1792 will be stored in the path: C:\attachments\001xxx\001792\This mode groups up to a 1,000 cases in a grouping folder to help organize the attachments. ModeC: Similar to ModeB but the folder names are slightly different. For example, if the attachPath is set to "c:\attachments", attachments from Case 1792 will be stored in the path: C:\attachments\1700\1792\This mode groups up to 100 cases in a group folder to help organize the attachments. |
| MessageBusSettings. MessageQueue |
Yes | msmq://localhost/dovetail.carrier | The URI of the message queue that Dovetail Carrier will look for messages. |
| MessageBusSettings. ConcurrentConsumers |
No | 2 * Number of CPUs | The number of messages processed concurrently. |
| RegularExpressionSettings. TimeoutInSeconds |
No | 30 | Number of seconds a regular expression will execute before timing out. Timed out expressions will throw an exception. Many extensions use regular expressions to drive how message processing is handled. It is possible that in some rare cases a complex regular expression for certain inputs could runaway. This timeout is a relief value preventing the message consumer from getting stuck evaluating a regular expression. |
