Basic Configuration Settings

Core settings for naming, attribute discovery method, status, and auto code generation.

Configuration Name (CONFIGURATION_NAME)

Unique, descriptive name for the scan configuration. Use names that indicate purpose (e.g., "Quick Onboarding Scan", "Daily Full Scan", "Incremental Updates").

---

Attribute Create Type (ATTRIBUTE_CREATE_TYPE)

Determines how attributes are discovered and created during scanning.

Values:

• 'Discover' - Uses actual scanned data to create attribute metadata. Discovers all attributes, creates all 7 polymorphic versions proactively, activates versions based on actual data types found. Recommended for production.

• 'Schema' - Uses Data Source Object Schema Sample to create attribute metadata. Faster for rapid prototyping without scanning full datasets. Best for quick onboarding and testing.

---

Status (RECORD_STATUS)

Controls whether scan configuration is active and available for use.

Values:

• 'Active' - Configuration available for scanning

• 'Inactive' - Configuration disabled but preserved

• 'Deleted' - Configuration marked for deletion

---

Auto Code Generate (CODE_GENERATE_ON_VERSION_CHANGE)

Automatically generates Dynamic Table SQL code when data source schema or polymorphic state changes after a scan.

When enabled:

• SQL code automatically generated after scans that detect schema changes

• New polymorphic versions trigger code regeneration

• Attribute additions or changes update generated SQL

When disabled:

• Code generation must be triggered manually

• Useful for reviewing changes before generating code
