Chat Data Source Options

  • Status: Active

User Impact

Older settings files store default chat data source options in the nested DataChat.PreselectedDataSourceOptions object.

Without this shim, those defaults would be lost after upgrading to a version that exposes the individual data source default fields to configuration plugins.

Compatibility Behavior

DataChat.PreselectedDataSourceOptions remains available as a compatibility property. Reading it maps the new individual fields into a DataSourceOptions object, and setting it copies values from the legacy nested object into the new fields.

This lets older settings files load without a settings version migration and keeps existing UI bindings working while configuration plugins manage the individual fields.

Removal Checklist

  • Confirm supported settings files are expected to contain PreselectedDataSourcesDisabled, PreselectedDataSourcesAutomaticSelection, PreselectedDataSourcesAutomaticValidation, and PreselectedDataSourceIds.
  • Remove DataChat.PreselectedDataSourceOptions.
  • Update any remaining callers to use the individual fields or a dedicated helper.
  • Update this document's status to Removed.
