+
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| **plugin** | Fully qualified Java class of resource adaptor to be used |
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| **resource** | Type of resource to save |
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| **key** | SQL-like string specifying criteria for retrieval |
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| **force** | If "true", save resource even if this resource is already stored in persistent storage |
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| **pfx** | Prefix to be prepended to variable names, when attributes are set in SvcLogicContext |
++----------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Parameters
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Values to save (columns) are specified as parameters, with each name
+corresponding to a column name and each value corresponding to the value
+to set.
