# DVRS - Dataverse

The DVRS data source in SCA provides access to contacts stored by **apps built on Microsoft Dataverse**, for example apps developed on **Microsoft Power Platform**. Contacts are queried via the **Dataverse API**, and are managed in your **Dataverse environment**.

#### App Configuration Parameters

**Defaults (**[**`SecContacts.Defaults`**](/documentation/app-configuration-policy-name-values-for-sca/sca-configuration-seccontacts.defaults.md)**):**

* [**DVRS\_Enabled**](/documentation/app-configuration-policy-name-values-for-sca/sca-configuration-seccontacts.defaults.md#enable-or-disable-features) → Enables or disables the DVRS data source.
* [**DVRS\_InitValue**](/documentation/app-configuration-policy-name-values-for-sca/sca-configuration-seccontacts.defaults.md#initial-value-set-by-default) → Defines the default state of the user’s switch in the app (on/off). This controls whether the data source is visible or hidden when the user first launches SCA.

**Service URLs (**[**`SecContacts.ServiceUrls`**](https://docs.secure-contacts.com/documentation/data-sources/pages/bf6qlzjqFL3ODEf6GONt#seccontacts.serviceurls)**):**

* [**SecContacts.ServiceUrls**](https://docs.secure-contacts.com/documentation/data-sources/pages/bf6qlzjqFL3ODEf6GONt#seccontacts.serviceurls) → Set this parameter to add the URL of your Dataverse environment.
* Using `ServiceUrls`, administrators can also configure:
  * 🆕Custom API filters to retrieve only relevant contacts
  * 🆕Splitting of Dataverse contacts into multiple separate SCA data sources (e.g., by business unit, department, or region)
* **Additional Steps:**
  * Download and install the custom table schema (contact us for details).

**Customization:**

* [**SecContacts.CustomDatasourceNames**](/documentation/app-configuration-policy-name-values-for-sca/sca-configuration-seccontacts.customdatasourcenames.md) → Assign friendly display names for the DVRS source.

#### Requirements to Access Dataverse Contacts

To access DVRS contacts in SCA, a user must have:

* An **appropriate Azure/M365 license assigned for Dataverse**
* **Authorized access to the contact entities in Dataverse**

#### Requirements for DVRS Contacts

Any DVRS contact to be shown in SCA **must have the following fields populated**:

1. **First name**
2. **Last name**
3. **Valid phone number**

**Note:** All eligible DVRS contacts that meet these requirements will appear in SCA

{% hint style="success" %}

* Each data source, including DVRS, can be **hidden by the user** if they do not want to see or use it.
* Hiding the DVRS data source does **not affect Caller Identification** — contacts from hidden sources will still resolve incoming calls.
* The DVRS data source is only available with the **Enterprise Edition** of SCA.
