Settings

Label


Required. The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline.

Schema name


The database schema name. Selecting a schema filters the Table name list to show only those tables within the selected schema.

Note

The values can be passed using the pipeline parameters but not the upstream parameter.


Table name

Required. Table name to execute the delete on.

Note

The values can be passed using the pipeline parameters but not the upstream parameter.


Delete condition (deletes all records from table if left blank)


This is an expression property to specify the SQL WHERE clause of the delete statement. The delete condition may also be passed via an upstream Snap or through the pipeline parameters.
Enter in the where clause of the delete statement. Document field values can be substituted into the where clause by providing the path. For example, $person.firstname would insert the field 'firstname' from the 'person' object into the query (firstname == $person.firstname would become firstname == 'Joe' if $person.firstname evaluates to 'Joe').

This field is required to prevent all rows of a table from being deleted by accident.

 

Note

Specify a valid WHERE clause for the delete condition. If you leave this field blank, the Snap deletes all the records from the table.

Example

Examples

Without using expressions

  • EmpId = 12 

  • email =

"customer@example

Using expressions

  • "EMPNO=$EMPNO and ENAME=$EMPNAME"

  • email = $email 

  • emp=$emp

  • "emp='" + $emp + "'"

  • "EMPNO=" + $EMPNO + " and ENAME='" + $EMPNAME+ "'"


Warning
titleCaution

Using expressions that join strings together to create SQL queries or conditions has a potential SQL injection risk and is hence unsafe. Ensure that you understand all implications and risks involved before using concatenation of strings with '=' Expression enabled.
