looking for documenation on the powerserver c# objects.

specifically, the details on : AddPowerServerAppConfig

 

what i want to do is use my own code to build the connection strings for powerserver (many databases/servers) so i can use a username/password that i store in azure key vault for production.  That allows for things like password rotation.  

Ideally i could use my own tables for getting the server/database name rather than PowerServer_ConnectionConfig table that is built in.

 

Is this possible with the current powerserver R3 c# objects?

I do this sort of things already for my own web api's i built with c#, but i have no idea how powerserver connects to the databases.

Hi Mike,

Please see if this solution helps you: How to change database password in the cache dynamically when Web API is running | Appeon

You should be able to modify other properties like the password property.

Hi Mike;

  For that approach, I would suggest using SnapDevelop that comes with PB Cloud Edition (like Visual Studio) to build such Web API's (like you did in C#) to ensure maximum flexibility for what you seem to want to do. In the Snap route vs VS C# approach though would have the bonus of using the C# .NET Data Window and DataStore that Snap provide functionality wise to the C# code base. That's of course just one take (off the top of my head) for address this design but, at this time I have limited information about your full needs. So just my $0.02.

Regards .. Chris
