+## Configuration Parameter Reference
+### Import and Database Settings
+
+#### NOMINATIM_DATABASE_DSN
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Database connection string |
+| **Format:** | string: `pgsql:<param1>=<value1>;<param2>=<value2>;...` |
+| **Default:** | pgsql:dbname=nominatim |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+Sets the connection parameters for the Nominatim database. At a minimum
+the name of the database (`dbname`) is required. You can set any additional
+parameter that is understood by libpq. See the [Postgres documentation](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-PARAMKEYWORDS) for a full list.
+
+!!! note
+ It is usually recommended not to set the password directly in this
+ configuration parameter. Use a
+ [password file](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-pgpass.html)
+ instead.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_DATABASE_WEBUSER
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Database query user |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | www-data |
+| **After Changes:** | cannot be changed after import |
+
+Defines the name of the database user that will run search queries. Usually
+this is the user under which the webserver is executed. When running Nominatim
+via php-fpm, you can also define a separate query user. The Postgres user
+needs to be set up before starting the import.
+
+Nominatim grants minimal rights to this user to all tables that are needed
+for running geocoding queries.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_DATABASE_MODULE_PATH
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Directory where to find the PostgreSQL server module |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (use `<project_directory>/module`) |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --functions` |
+| **Comment:** | Legacy tokenizer only |
+
+Defines the directory in which the PostgreSQL server module `nominatim.so`
+is stored. The directory and module must be accessible by the PostgreSQL
+server.
+
+For information on how to use this setting when working with external databases,
+see [Advanced Installations](../admin/Advanced-Installations.md).
+
+The option is only used by the Legacy tokenizer and ignored otherwise.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_TOKENIZER
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Tokenizer used for normalizing and parsing queries and names |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | icu |
+| **After Changes:** | cannot be changed after import |
+
+Sets the tokenizer type to use for the import. For more information on
+available tokenizers and how they are configured, see
+[Tokenizers](../customize/Tokenizers.md).
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_TOKENIZER_CONFIG
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Configuration file for the tokenizer |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (default file depends on tokenizer) |
+| **After Changes:** | see documentation for each tokenizer |
+
+Points to the file with additional configuration for the tokenizer.
+See the [Tokenizer](../customize/Tokenizers.md) descriptions for details
+on the file format.
+
+If a relative path is given, then the file is searched first relative to the
+project directory and then in the global settings directory.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_MAX_WORD_FREQUENCY
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Number of occurrences before a word is considered frequent |
+| **Format:** | int |
+| **Default:** | 50000 |
+| **After Changes:** | cannot be changed after import |
+| **Comment:** | Legacy tokenizer only |
+
+The word frequency count is used by the Legacy tokenizer to automatically
+identify _stop words_. Any partial term that occurs more often then what
+is defined in this setting, is effectively ignored during search.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_LIMIT_REINDEXING
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Avoid invalidating large areas |
+| **Format:** | bool |
+| **Default:** | yes |
+
+Nominatim computes the address of each place at indexing time. This has the
+advantage to make search faster but also means that more objects needs to
+be invalidated when the data changes. For example, changing the name of
+the state of Florida would require recomputing every single address point
+in the state to make the new name searchable in conjunction with addresses.
+
+Setting this option to 'yes' means that Nominatim skips reindexing of contained
+objects when the area becomes too large.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_LANGUAGES
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Restrict search languages |
+| **Format:** | string: comma-separated list of language codes |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ |
+
+Normally Nominatim will include all language variants of name:XX
+in the search index. Set this to a comma separated list of language
+codes, to restrict import to a subset of languages.
+
+Currently only affects the initial import of country names and special phrases.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_TERM_NORMALIZATION
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Rules for normalizing terms for comparisons |
+| **Format:** | string: semicolon-separated list of ICU rules |
+| **Default:** | :: NFD (); [[:Nonspacing Mark:] [:Cf:]] >; :: lower (); [[:Punctuation:][:Space:]]+ > ' '; :: NFC (); |
+| **Comment:** | Legacy tokenizer only |
+
+[Special phrases](Special-Phrases.md) have stricter matching requirements than
+normal search terms. They must appear exactly in the query after this term
+normalization has been applied.
+
+Only has an effect on the Legacy tokenizer. For the ICU tokenizer the rules
+defined in the
+[normalization section](Tokenizers.md#normalization-and-transliteration)
+will be used.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_USE_US_TIGER_DATA
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Enable searching for Tiger house number data |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --functions` |
+
+When this setting is enabled, search and reverse queries also take data
+from [Tiger house number data](Tiger.md) into account.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_USE_AUX_LOCATION_DATA
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Enable searching in external house number tables |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --functions` |
+| **Comment:** | Do not use. |
+
+When this setting is enabled, search queries also take data from external
+house number tables into account.
+
+*Warning:* This feature is currently unmaintained and should not be used.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Use HTTP proxy when downloading data |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+
+When this setting is enabled and at least
+[NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_HOST](#nominatim_http_proxy_host) and
+[NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_PORT](#nominatim_http_proxy_port) are set, the
+configured proxy will be used, when downloading external data like
+replication diffs.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_HOST
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Host name of the proxy to use |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ |
+
+When [NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY](#nominatim_http_proxy) is enabled, this setting
+configures the proxy host name.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_PORT
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Port number of the proxy to use |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 3128 |
+
+When [NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY](#nominatim_http_proxy) is enabled, this setting
+configures the port number to use with the proxy.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_LOGIN
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Username for proxies that require login |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ |
+
+When [NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY](#nominatim_http_proxy) is enabled, use this
+setting to define the username for proxies that require a login.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Password for proxies that require login |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ |
+
+When [NOMINATIM_HTTP_PROXY](#nominatim_http_proxy) is enabled, use this
+setting to define the password for proxies that require a login.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_OSM2PGSQL_BINARY
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Location of the osm2pgsql binary |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (use binary shipped with Nominatim) |
+| **Comment:** | EXPERT ONLY |
+
+Nominatim uses [osm2pgsql](https://osm2pgsql.org) to load the OSM data
+initially into the database. Nominatim comes bundled with a version of
+osm2pgsql that is guaranteed to be compatible. Use this setting to use
+a different binary instead. You should do this only when you know exactly
+what you are doing. If the osm2pgsql version is not compatible, then the
+result is undefined.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_WIKIPEDIA_DATA_PATH
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Directory with the wikipedia importance data |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (project directory) |
+
+Set a custom location for the
+[wikipedia ranking file](../admin/Import.md#wikipediawikidata-rankings). When
+unset, Nominatim expects the data to be saved in the project directory.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_ADDRESS_LEVEL_CONFIG
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Configuration file for rank assignments |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | address-levels.json |
+
+The _address level configuration_ defines the rank assignments for places. See
+[Place Ranking](Ranking.md) for a detailed explanation what rank assignments
+are and what the configuration file must look like.
+
+When a relative path is given, then the file is searched first relative to the
+project directory and then in the global settings directory.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_IMPORT_STYLE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Configuration to use for the initial OSM data import |
+| **Format:** | string or path |
+| **Default:** | extratags |
+
+The _style configuration_ describes which OSM objects and tags are taken
+into consideration for the search database. Nominatim comes with a set
+of pre-configured styles, that may be configured here.
+
+You can also write your own custom style and point the setting to the file
+with the style. When a relative path is given, then the style file is searched
+first relative to the project directory and then in the global settings
+directory.
+
+See [Import Styles](Import-Styles.md)
+for more information on the available internal styles and the format of the
+configuration file.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_FLATNODE_FILE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Location of osm2pgsql flatnode file |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (do not use a flatnote file) |
+| **After Changes:** | Only change when moving the file physically. |
+
+The `osm2pgsql flatnode file` is file that efficiently stores geographic
+location for OSM nodes. For larger imports it can significantly speed up
+the import. When this option is unset, then osm2pgsql uses a PsotgreSQL table
+to store the locations.
+
+When a relative path is given, then the flatnode file is created/searched
+relative to the project directory.
+
+!!! warning
+
+ The flatnode file is not only used during the initial import but also
+ when adding new data with `nominatim add-data` or `nominatim replication`.
+ Make sure you keep the flatnode file around and this setting unmodified,
+ if you plan to add more data or run regular updates.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_*
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Group of settings for distributing the database over tablespaces |
+| **Format:** | string |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (do not use a table space) |
+| **After Changes:** | no effect after initial import |
+
+Nominatim allows to distribute the search database over up to 10 different
+[PostgreSQL tablespaces](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/manage-ag-tablespaces.html).
+If you use this option, make sure that the tablespaces exist before starting
+the import.
+
+The available tablespace groups are:
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_SEARCH_DATA
+: Data used by the geocoding frontend.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_SEARCH_INDEX
+: Indexes used by the geocoding frontend.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_OSM_DATA
+: Raw OSM data cache used for import and updates.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_OSM_DATA
+: Indexes on the raw OSM data cache.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_PLACE_DATA
+: Data table with the pre-filtered but still unprocessed OSM data.
+ Used only during imports and updates.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_PLACE_INDEX
+: Indexes on raw data table. Used only during imports and updates.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_ADDRESS_DATA
+: Data tables used for computing search terms and addresses of places
+ during import and updates.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_ADDRESS_INDEX
+: Indexes on the data tables for search term and address computation.
+ Used only for import and updates.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_AUX_DATA
+: Auxiliary data tables for non-OSM data, e.g. for Tiger house number data.
+
+NOMINATIM_TABLESPACE_AUX_INDEX
+: Indexes on auxiliary data tables.
+
+
+### Replication Update Settings
+
+#### NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_URL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Base URL of the replication service |
+| **Format:** | url |
+| **Default:** | https://planet.openstreetmap.org/replication/minute |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim replication --init` |
+
+Replication services deliver updates to OSM data. Use this setting to choose
+which replication service to use. See [Updates](../admin/Update.md) for more
+information on how to set up regular updates.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_MAX_DIFF
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Maximum amount of data to download per update cycle (in MB) |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 50 |
+| **After Changes:** | restart the replication process |
+
+At each update cycle Nominatim downloads diffs until either no more diffs
+are available on the server (i.e. the database is up-to-date) or the limit
+given in this setting is exceeded. Nominatim guarantees to downloads at least
+one diff, if one is available, no matter how small the setting.
+
+The default for this setting is fairly conservative because Nominatim keeps
+all data downloaded in one cycle in RAM. Using large values in a production
+server may interfere badly with the search frontend because it evicts data
+from RAM that is needed for speedy answers to incoming requests. It is usually
+a better idea to keep this setting lower and run multiple update cycles
+to catch up with updates.
+
+When catching up in non-production mode, for example after the initial import,
+the setting can easily be changed temporarily on the command line:
+
+ NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_MAX_DIFF=3000 nominatim replication
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_UPDATE_INTERVAL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Publication interval of the replication service (in seconds) |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 75 |
+| **After Changes:** | restart the replication process |
+
+This setting determines when Nominatim will attempt to download again a new
+update. The time is computed from the publication date of the last diff
+downloaded. Setting this to a slightly higher value than the actual
+publication interval avoids unnecessary rechecks.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_RECHECK_INTERVAL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Wait time to recheck for a pending update (in seconds) |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 60 |
+| **After Changes:** | restart the replication process |
+
+When replication updates are run in continuous mode (using `nominatim replication`),
+this setting determines how long Nominatim waits until it looks for updates
+again when updates were not available on the server.
+
+Note that this is different from
+[NOMINATIM_REPLICATION_UPDATE_INTERVAL](#nominatim_replication_update_interval).
+Nominatim will never attempt to query for new updates for UPDATE_INTERVAL
+seconds after the current database date. Only after the update interval has
+passed it asks for new data. If then no new data is found, it waits for
+RECHECK_INTERVAL seconds before it attempts again.
+
+### API Settings
+
+#### NOMINATIM_CORS_NOACCESSCONTROL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Send permissive CORS access headers |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | yes |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+When this setting is enabled, API HTTP responses include the HTTP
+[CORS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CORS) headers
+`access-control-allow-origin: *` and `access-control-allow-methods: OPTIONS,GET`.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_MAPICON_URL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | URL prefix for static icon images |
+| **Format:** | url |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+When a mapicon URL is configured, then Nominatim includes an additional `icon`
+field in the responses, pointing to an appropriate icon for the place type.
+
+Map icons used to be included in Nominatim itself but now have moved to the
+[nominatim-ui](https://github.com/osm-search/nominatim-ui/) project. If you
+want the URL to be included in API responses, make the `/mapicon`
+directory of the project available under a public URL and point this setting
+to the directory.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Language of responses when no language is requested |
+| **Format:** | language code |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (use the local language of the feature) |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+Nominatim localizes the place names in responses when the corresponding
+translation is available. Users can request a custom language setting through
+the HTTP accept-languages header or through the explicit parameter
+[accept-languages](../api/Search.md#language-of-results). If neither is
+given, it falls back to this setting. If the setting is also empty, then
+the local languages (in OSM: the name tag without any language suffix) is
+used.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_SEARCH_BATCH_MODE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Enable a special batch query mode |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+| **Comment:** | PHP frontend only |
+
+
+This feature is currently undocumented and potentially broken.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_SEARCH_NAME_ONLY_THRESHOLD
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Threshold for switching the search index lookup strategy |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 500 |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+| **Comment:** | PHP frontend only |
+
+This setting defines the threshold over which a name is no longer considered
+as rare. When searching for places with rare names, only the name is used
+for place lookups. Otherwise the name and any address information is used.
+
+This setting only has an effect after `nominatim refresh --word-counts` has
+been called to compute the word frequencies.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_LOOKUP_MAX_COUNT
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Maximum number of OSM ids accepted by /lookup |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 50 |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+The /lookup point accepts list of ids to look up address details for. This
+setting restricts the number of places a user may look up with a single
+request.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_POLYGON_OUTPUT_MAX_TYPES
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Number of different geometry formats that may be returned |
+| **Format:** | integer |
+| **Default:** | 1 |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+Nominatim supports returning full geometries of places. The geometries may
+be requested in different formats with one of the
+[`polygon_*` parameters](../api/Search.md#polygon-output). Use this
+setting to restrict the number of geometry types that may be requested
+with a single query.
+
+Setting this parameter to 0 disables polygon output completely.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_SEARCH_WITHIN_COUNTRIES
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Disable search for elements that are not in the country grid |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+| **Comment:** | PHP frontend only |
+
+Enable to search elements just within countries.
+
+When enabled, if, despite not finding a point within the static grid of countries, it
+finds a geometry of a region, do not return the geometry.
+Return "Unable to geocode" instead.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_SERVE_LEGACY_URLS
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Enable serving via URLs with a .php suffix |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | yes |
+| **Comment:** | Python frontend only |
+
+When enabled, then endpoints are reachable as `/<name>` as well as `/<name>.php`.
+This can be useful when you want to be backwards-compatible with previous
+versions of Nominatim.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_API_POOL_SIZE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Number of parallel database connections per worker |
+| **Format:** | number |
+| **Default:** | 10 |
+| **Comment:** | Python frontend only |
+
+Sets the maximum number of database connections available for a single instance
+of Nominatim. When configuring the maximum number of connections that your
+PostgreSQL database can handle, you need at least `<pool size> * <worker>`
+connections.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_QUERY_TIMEOUT
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Timeout for SQL queries to the database |
+| **Format:** | number (seconds) |
+| **Default:** | 10 |
+| **Comment:** | Python frontend only |
+
+When this timeout is set, then all SQL queries that run longer than the
+specified numbers of seconds will be cancelled and the user receives a
+timeout exceptions. Users of the API see a 503 HTTP error.
+
+The timeout does ont apply when using the
+[low-level DB access](../library/Low-Level-DB-Access.md)
+of the library. A timeout can be manually set, if required.
+
+
+#### NOMINATIM_REQUEST_TIMEOUT
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Timeout for search queries |
+| **Format:** | number (seconds) |
+| **Default:** | 60 |
+| **Comment:** | Python frontend only |
+
+When this timeout is set, a search query will finish sending queries
+to the database after the timeout has passed and immediately return the
+results gathered so far.
+
+Note that under high load you may observe that users receive different results
+than usual without seeing an error. This may cause some confusion.
+
+### Logging Settings
+
+#### NOMINATIM_LOG_DB
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Log requests into the database |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+Enable logging requests into a database table with this setting. The logs
+can be found in the table `new_query_log`.
+
+When using this logging method, it is advisable to set up a job that
+regularly clears out old logging information. Nominatim will not do that
+on its own.
+
+Can be used as the same time as NOMINATIM_LOG_FILE.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_LOG_FILE
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Log requests into a file |
+| **Format:** | path |
+| **Default:** | _empty_ (logging disabled) |
+| **After Changes:** | run `nominatim refresh --website` |
+
+Enable logging of requests into a file with this setting by setting the log
+file where to log to. A relative file name is assumed to be relative to
+the project directory.
+
+
+The entries in the log file have the following format:
+
+ <request time> <execution time in s> <number of results> <type> "<query string>"
+
+Request time is the time when the request was started. The execution time is
+given in seconds and corresponds to the time the query took executing in PHP.
+type contains the name of the endpoint used.
+
+Can be used as the same time as NOMINATIM_LOG_DB.
+
+#### NOMINATIM_DEBUG_SQL
+
+| Summary | |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Description:** | Enable printing of raw SQL by SQLAlchemy |
+| **Format:** | boolean |
+| **Default:** | no |
+| **Comment:** | **For developers only.** |
+
+This settings enables
+[SQL debugging](https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/20/core/engines.html#dbengine-logging)
+by SQLAlchemy. This can be helpful when debugging some bugs with internal
+query handling. It should only be used together with the CLI query functions.
+Enabling it for server mode may have intended consequences. Use the `debug`
+parameter instead, which prints information on how the search is executed
+including SQL statements.
