The following table describes the source properties that you can configure in a Source transformation:

The format of data that is transferred over the network.
Specify the property to override the Data Serialization Format value you specified in the OData Consumer connection.

When you select Connection Default, the Secure Agent uses the Data Serialization Format value you specified in the OData Consumer connection.

For example, you can set this property to n to skip the first n rows in a source and read from the (n+1) row.
Default is 0.
