+Supported query parameters are `encrypt-connection`, `format`,
+`column-separator`, `trim-spaces` and `trust-server-certificate`, which
+correspond to connection properties of the same name (see `sqlcmd -?`). For
+backward compatibility with older versions of sqlcmd the boolean query

 To set the `integratedSecurity` connection property and use a trusted
 connection, omit the user and password.
