configure command

Configure runtime and data source properties that aren't entity-specific in an existing Data API builder configuration file. Unspecified options leave existing values unchanged. If any provided option is invalid, the entire update fails (all-or-nothing).

Acronyms used in this reference: Model Context Protocol (MCP), data manipulation language (DML), time to live (TTL), JSON Web Token (JWT), release candidate (RC), data collection rule (DCR), and data collection endpoint (DCE).

Note

This command doesn't alter the entities section. Use dab update for entity changes.

Syntax

dab configure [options]

Important

OpenTelemetry and Application Insights settings are configured with dab add-telemetry, not dab configure. See concept/monitor/open-telemetry.md and concept/monitor/application-insights.md.
