| Subscribe interval        | Defines the time in seconds between consecutive data update notifications for a subscribed asset property. Specifies the frequency at which the system checks and receives updates on the specified property within the IoT SiteWise platform. |
| Number of batch messages  | The quantity of grouped data transmissions                                                                                                                                                                                                     |
| Throttling limit          | Set a limit on the number of outbound messages per second. Ensures that no messages are lost when sending data to a server that has restrictions on the rate of incoming messages.                                                             |
| Persistent storage        | If enabled, messages in the outbound queue are stored on disk. If there are interruptions in connection or power loss, messages are retained and eventually sent when the connection is restored.                                              |
| Queue mode                | Select the sequence of data transfer: FIFO or LIFO. FIFO (First In First Out) sends the earliest message first. LIFO (Last In First Out) sends the last message first.                                                                         |
