| Callback URL | The OAuth callback URL to return to when authenticating. This value must match the callback URL you specify in your app settings. |
| Connection Life Time | The maximum lifetime of a connection in seconds. Once the time has elapsed, the connection object is disposed. |
| Connect On Open | This property species whether to connect to the REST when the connection is opened. |

| Max Rows | Limits the number of rows returned rows when no aggregation or group by is used in the query. This helps avoid performance issues at design time. |
| MFA Serial Number | The serial number of the MFA device if one is being used. |
| MFA Token | The temporary token available from your MFA device. |
