# ConnectionString

To store asynchronous action queues in a database, rather than in an internal datastore file, set the parameters `AsyncStoreLibraryDirectory`, `AsyncStoreLibraryName`, and `ConnectionString`. If you use the same database to store action queues for more than one type of component, you must also set `DatastoreSharingGroupName`.

This parameter specifies the connection string to use to connect to the database.

The user that you specify in the data source or connection string must have permission to create tables in the database.

If your connection string includes a password, Micro Focus recommends encrypting the value of this parameter before entering it into the configuration file. Encrypt the entire parameter value (the entire connection string). For information about how to encrypt parameter values, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.
