I guess you cannot do things that mqsisetdbparms does via Integration Bus API?

If it does not then you could always raise an RFE asking for this support.

Frankly, this is done so infrequently and usually via scripts that are held in source control that I feel this is not needed.

Care to explain why you think you need it?

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

I can live without it. mqsisetdbparams is typically something you set up once and almost never touch again unless you move the whole application on another broker.

The idea was just to have all application specific configuration in one place. I admit that mqsidbparms is a bit tricky when it comes to storing configuration in version control, for example. You don't want to have passwords anywhere in plain text.

I just wanted to know if I had overseen something when I checked the API.

so you put a standard password in the version that gets stored in say, GIT.
You also put comments that tell the user to change it and use the correct password.

A minor limitation.
Even with an API you have to store the password somewhere don't you?
