    Umbraco Connection String

    Hi , for some reason I need to change my connection string dynamically from code. I do not want to put the connection value in config file. Suggest me if there is any other solution except config file.

    I've never tried it, but in theory you can use:

    ApplicationContext.Current.DatabaseContext.ConfigureDatabaseConnection(connString)

    to set the database connection.

    I'd imagine you'd need to do this in the Application Startup events (not sure which one - but as early as possible, I'd guess). See below:

    https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Events/Application-Startup

    Again, not sure if it will work, but seems your best bet.
