# Configuration settings

SAIF.Business.Provider does not define or retrieve library-local configuration settings. The scanned source files rely on BOF data-portal context for database access, and the API adapters reference BOF API client keys whose endpoint definitions are supplied by consuming applications rather than by this library.

## Configuration retrieval methods

No library-local configuration retrieval methods were detected in the scanned source files.

## Environment API settings

No `IEnvironmentService` usage was detected.

## AppSettings (Web.config)

No `ConfigurationManager.AppSettings` usage or `<appSettings>` keys were detected in this library's `app.config`.

## Database connection configuration

No library-local connection strings or direct connection-manager registrations were detected. BOF business objects receive database context through `IDataPortalInfo` and related data-portal infrastructure.

## Secure settings

No secure-setting retrieval calls were detected.

## Transitive configuration (from dependencies)

The API adapter classes pass the BOF client keys `ProviderApi` and `ClaimCenterApi` into `GetApiClient(...)`, but the corresponding endpoint definitions are not stored in this library.

## Configuration dependencies

| Dependency | Type | Required at | Impact if missing |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| BOF data-portal context (`IDataPortalInfo`) | Runtime service | runtime | Business-object retrieval and persistence cannot resolve the required database context. |
| BOF API client registrations for `ProviderApi` and `ClaimCenterApi` | Runtime service | runtime | API adapter classes cannot resolve the configured external API client. |
