Property Value
Type Description
StringDictionary
Remarks

The naming convention of the key string is as follows:

Plug-in data [Plug-in name].[Property name] Example: DocumentPlugin.DocumentType
Foreign key data The device identity is appended directly to the device name if it exists. This is not commonly used, but the database opens for this as a possibility to have several devices with the same name, and hence we would ensure an unique key if this field is used. Example: Audience.SecretService.DefaultCountry
User defined table data [Table name].[Field name] Example: Phunneling.AggregatedSales
Other Other data sources must ensure an unique name. If the key already exists we do not add the data to the dictionary. We also ensure that SuperOffice data are added first, so that existing data doesnt change when more data sources are added (with duplicate data keys).
