# Configuration settings

This page documents the configuration settings and runtime dependencies consumed by `SAIF.Business.Claim.Bill`.

## Configuration retrieval methods

| Method | Class / Interface | Namespace | Usage pattern |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `EnvironmentService.GetConfigSetting` | ``EnvironmentService`` | ``SAIF.Framework.Security`` | Reads the imaging API base URL during lazy `ImagingClient` initialization. |
| Oracle ODP.NET config section | ``oracle.manageddataaccess.client`` | ``Oracle.ManagedDataAccess`` | Registers the managed Oracle driver section and provider factory in config files. |
| `ApplicationSettingsBase` | ``MySettings`` | ``SAIF.Business.Claim.Bill.My`` | Auto-generated settings wrapper exists, but no typed settings are defined. |

## Environment API settings

| Setting key | Method | Data type | Purpose | Consuming class | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ``imagingApiUrl`` | ``GetConfigSetting`` | String | External service endpoint | ``clsCallImageApi`` | ``Business\SAIF.Business.Claim.Bill\clsCallImageApi.vb`` |

## AppSettings (Web.config)

No local `appSettings` keys were detected in this library.

## Database connection configuration

| Connection name | Provider | Retrieval method | Purpose | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| N/A | `Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client` | Provider registration in config files | Enables Oracle client access used by dependent data-portal components | `app.config`, `Web.config` |

## Secure settings

No secure-setting retrieval paths were detected in this library.

## Transitive configuration (from dependencies)

No additional same-repository transitive configuration keys were verified for this library.

## Configuration dependencies

| Dependency | Type | Required at | Impact if missing |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `oracle.manageddataaccess.client` | configuration section | startup | Oracle provider registration or dependent connectivity can fail |
| `imagingApiUrl` | environment service key | runtime | Imaging client initialization cannot resolve its base URL |
