Remarks

The Web Dashboard control exposes all connection strings from the Web.config / appsettings.json files by default. If you store connection strings in Web.config / appsettings.json, the Web Dashboard control can pass all connection string names from these files to the client side. Pass the ConfigFileConnectionStringsProvider instance to the Web Dashboard’s DashboardConfigurator.SetConnectionStringsProvider / ASPxDashboard.SetConnectionStringsProvider methods to allow creating new data sources based on connection strings from the Web.config / appsettings.json file.

To learn more about security considerations in the Web Dashboard, see Security Considerations.
