Gets or sets the location of the configuration.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS (in Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll)
public string ConfigurationString { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.String
A String that contains the location of the configuration. The location can be a path, an environment variable, a parent package variable name, or a registry key.

The following code example creates a package, enables configurations, and enables the export of the configuration file. It adds a new Configuration to the package Configurations collection, and sets several properties on the configuration. After saving and reloading the package, the configuration properties are displayed.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.BulkInsertTask;

namespace configuration_API
{
    class Program
    {    
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
        // Create a package and set two properties.
            Package pkg = new Package();
            pkg.EnableConfigurations = true;
            pkg.ExportConfigurationFile(@"C:\conf.xml");

            // Create a variable object and add it to the 
            // package Variables collection.
            Variable varPkg = pkg.Variables.Add("var", false, "", 100);
            varPkg.Value = 1;
            string packagePathToVariable = varPkg.GetPackagePath();

            // Create a configuration object and add it to the 
           // package configuration collection.
            Configuration config = pkg.Configurations.Add();

           // Set properties on the configuration object.
            config.ConfigurationString = "conf.xml";
            config.Description = "My configuration description";
            config.ConfigurationType = DTSConfigurationType.ConfigFile;
            config.PackagePath = packagePathToVariable;

            // Save the package and its configuration.
            Application app = new Application();
            app.SaveToXml(@"c:\pkg.xml", pkg, null);
            
            // Reload the package.
            Package p1 = app.LoadPackage(@"c:\pkg.xml", null);
            // Review the configuration information.
            Configurations configs_After = pkg.Configurations;
            foreach(Configuration confAfter in configs_After)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("ConfigurationString is {0}", confAfter.ConfigurationString);
                Console.WriteLine("ConfigurationType is {0}", confAfter.ConfigurationType);
                Console.WriteLine("CreationName is {0}", confAfter.CreationName);
                Console.WriteLine("Description is {0}", confAfter.Description);
                Console.WriteLine("Assigned ID is {0}", confAfter.ID);
                Console.WriteLine("Name is {0}", confAfter.Name);
            }
        }
    }
}

Sample Output:

The value of variable var = 1

ConfigurationString is conf.xml

ConfigurationType is ConfigFile

CreationName is

Description is My configuration description

Assigned ID is {9CF65E37-0833-44CD-A99D-EBFE38FAB31B}

Name is {9CF65E37-0833-44CD-A99D-EBFE38FAB31B}

Package Path is \Package.Variables[::var]
