Referenced by: connection

A complex type that specifies the extended properties of an external connection ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.13).

Child Elements:

calculatedMembers: A CT_CalculatedMembers ([ISO/IEC29500-4:2016] section A.2) element that specifies a list of PivotTable ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.10) OLAP-calculated members associated with this external connection ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.13). If this external connection ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.13) is associated with a PivotTable ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.10) PivotCache, the list MUST NOT exist. If this element exists, the ancestor CT_connection ([ISO/IEC29500-4:2016] section A.2) element of this element MUST have a child CT_OlapPr ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.13.5) element.

Attributes:

culture: An ST_Xstring ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 22.9.2.19) attribute that specifies the language associated with this external connection ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.13). The length of this string MUST be less than 85 characters. If the length of this string is greater than 0, the contents of this string SHOULD<16> be a language tag as specified by [RFC3066]. If this attribute is not present, the data connection is using the server language. 

embeddedDataId: An ST_Xstring ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 22.9.2.19) attribute that specifies an embedded Custom Data part. The length of this value MUST be less than 65,536 characters. If the length of this string is greater than 0, the contents of this string MUST be equal to the id attribute of a CT_DatastoreItem element, in a Custom Data Properties part in this package ([ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 9).
