**Connection Name:** Any common string uniquely identify your connection

**Emails to subscribe for failures**: List of email addresses to be notified in case of any exception occurred during the message transmission.

**Number of Outbound Concurrent Messages:** The system default is ‘0' which indicates the platform to use the platform default number of threads to be used. Unless you have specific license enabled, leave the value to '0'

**Retry on Failure(HH:MM:SS) and Interval**: The retry behaviour can be specified by specifying the the time and the interval of the retry. the default value of 00:00:00 will retry immediately

**Inbound Sync Response:** Use this ONLY for REST, SOAP, Oracle CMK and OTM based connection. you can specify a **Sync Response** message to be returned to the sender. The code to generate the response can manually entered or by loading [Scripts](https://justransform.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/JTHELP/pages/2719884/Scripts) [Toolbar - Map Chain](https://justransform.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/JTHELP/pages/18219434/Toolbar+-+Map+Chain) or a [Mapper](https://justransform.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/JTHELP/pages/33057/Mapper)
