zoomdata.properties Properties

The zoomdata.properties file can be edited in the /etc/zoomdata directory. Each property is described in the table below.

Some situations where the zoomdata.properties file needs to be updated include:

• Add an SSL Certificate
• Disable the SSL Certificate in Composer
• Set Up the Screenshot Microservice
• Create a Symmetric Key to Encrypt Data Source Passwords
• About Scheduled Dashboard Reports

For information on editing configuration files, see Edit a Composer Configuration File.

Property	Default Value	Description

Data Export Properties
zoomdata.export.data.max.cols	1000 columns	Use this property to define the maximum number of columns that can be exported for two-dimensional visuals (such as a pivot table). Composer enforces this limit for visual data, but does not enforce it for raw data. The distributed default for this setting is 1000 columns. Valid values can range from 0 through 2147483647 columns.
zoomdata.export.data.max.rows	100000 rows	Use this property to define the maximum number of rows that can be exported for visuals. Composer enforces this limit for visual data. However, for raw data, Composer produces an error if the number of rows requested for export exceeds this setting. The distributed default for this setting is 100000 rows. Valid values can range from 0 through 2147483647 rows.
Screenshot Microservice Client & Dashboard Scheduling Properties

screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds	60000 milliseconds	Specifies the number of milliseconds that can elapse before Composer stops trying to read from the screenshot microservice client. Note: If you increase the time set by the dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout property, make sure that you increase the value of this property as well. The total time set by screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds should always be greater than or equal to the time set by the dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout property. Bear in mind that this property is specified in milliseconds, but the dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout property is specified in seconds.
screenshot.service.http.client.write.timeout.milliseconds	60000 milliseconds	Specifies the number of milliseconds that can elapse before Composer stops trying to write to the screenshot microservice client.

dashboard.scheduling.screenshot.timeout	60 seconds	Specifies the timeout (in seconds) to take a screenshot for a dashboard email report. Note: The time specified by this property must be less than or equal to the time set by the screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds property. If you increase the value of this property, make sure that you increase the value of the screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds property accordingly. Bear in mind that this property is specified in seconds, but the screenshot.service.http.client.read.timeout.milliseconds property is specified in milliseconds.
mail.from		Specifies the email address identifying where the email comes from.
mail.login		Specifies the email login to use to access the mail server.
mail.password		Specifies the password associated with the email login identified in the mail.login property.
In addition, JavaMail API properties (Composer supports both IMAP and SMTP protocols) should be added to the zoomdata.properties file to identify the mail server and other mail properties required to use that server to send the scheduled dashboard (for example, mail.smtp.auth, mail.smtp.host, mail.smtp.port, mail.imap.host, and mail.imap.port). Complete descriptions of IMAP and SMTP protocol JavaMail properties can be found at these links: IMAP: https://javaee.github.io/javamail/docs/api/com/sun/mail/imap/package-summary.html SMTP: https://javaee.github.io/javamail/docs/api/com/sun/mail/smtp/package-summary.html
Field Settings
zoomdata.detect.type.attribute.max.length	200 characters	Use this property to set the maximum character length of attribute fields. If this limit is exceeded, the field will be recognized as a Text field.
