# RPC read-properties

This RPC reads default properties from the database. If a specified property key does not exist in the database, the key is returned under Ignored keys. The RPC works the same whether UniConfig Cloud Config is enabled or disabled.

If UniConfig Cloud Config is disabled, this RPC reads property values from the database. These values may differ from values in the application instance.

# RPC examples
