This Snap executes a SQL delete with the given properties.
ETL Transformations & DataFlow
This Snap enables the following ETL operations/flows:
Snap will delete all the records from the input table when there is no WHERE clause in the Delete condition provided or it will delete only the specific records matching with the WHERE clause provided in the properties.
Input & Output
Input: This Snap can have an upstream Snap that can pass a document output view. Such as Structure or JSON Generator.
Output: The Snap outputs one document specifying the status as success, along with the count of records that are being deleted from the table. Any error occuring during the process is routed to the error view.
This Snap uses account references created on the Accounts page of SnapLogic Manager to handle access to this endpoint. See Redshift Account for information on setting up this type of account.
Views
Input
This Snap has exactly one input view.
Output
This Snap has no output views.
Error
This Snap has at most one error view and produces zero or more documents in the view.

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. The property is suggestible and will retrieve available database schemas during suggest values.
The values can be passed using the pipeline parameters but not the upstream parameter.
Table name
Required.Table name to execute the delete on,
The values can be passed using the pipeline parameters but not the upstream parameter.
Example: people
Delete Condition (Truncates Table if empty)
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.
Specify a valid WHERE clause for the delete condition. If you leave this field blank, the Snap truncates the table.
Examples:
Macro lookup error: excerpt "ME_DB_Snaps_Query_Examples" was not found on page "Oracle - Update" (with ID 1438908) in space "SD".
Specifies the maximum number of attempts to be made to receive a response. The request is terminated if the attempts do not result in a response.
Example: 3
Default value: 0
If the value is larger than 0, the Snap first downloads the target file into a temporary local file. If any error occurs during the download, the Snap waits for the time specified in the Retry interval and attempts to download the file again from the beginning. When the download is successful, the Snap streams the data from the temporary file to the downstream Pipeline. All temporary local files are deleted when they are no longer needed.
Ensure that the local drive has sufficient free disk space to store the temporary local file.
Retry interval (seconds)
Specifies the time interval between two successive retry requests. A retry happens only when the previous attempt resulted in an exception.
Example: 10
Default value: 1
Snap execution
Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:
Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.
Examples
Basic Use Case
The following pipeline describes how the Snap functions as a standalone Snap in a pipeline:
In the pipeline below, the Redshift Delete Snap deletes all the records in the demo_rs_teja1 table belonging to the prasanna schema. All the records are deleted since there is no WHERE clause specified in the Delete condition.
In the image below a "success" message can be seen denoting the successful execution of the Snap.
Typical Snap Configurations
The key configuration of the Snap lies in how you pass the SQL statements to delete Redshift records. SQL statements can be passed:
Without Expression
The pipeline below shows a configuration where a Mapper Snap is used to pass Key-Value pair to the Redshift Delete Snap.
The image below shows the configuration of the Mapper Snap, here the $id parameter is assigned the value 1.
The image below shows the configuration of the Redshift Delete Snap. Note the Delete conditionid>$id. When executed all the records in the table kzhou2 within the prasanna schemawhere the id is more than 1 will be deleted.
The successful execution of the pipeline displays the below output preview:
With Expression
Pipeline Parameter: Pipeline parameters set to pass the required Schema name and Table name to the Redshift Delete Snap.
Upon execution, the table belonging to the schema, both passed as pipeline parameters Test Schema and Test Table, will be deleted by the Redshift Delete Snap.
Advanced Use Case
The following describes a pipeline, with a broader business logic involving multiple ETL transformations, that shows how typically in an enterprise environment, Redshift Delete functionality is used. Pipeline download link below (Downloads Section).
The below pipeline extracts the records from the MySQL database and transfers them to the Redshift database. The Mapper Snap then maps the input and the Target schemas from the Redshift tables for the records to be deleted. The Redshift Select Snap displays the remaining records.
Extract: The MySQL Select Snap retrieves the records from a table on the MySQL database.
Transform: The Mapper Snap maps the input schema to the target schema for the records to be deleted.
Load: The Redshift Bulk Load Snap loads the records into a table on the Redshift database.
Extract: The Redshift Select Snap retrieves the remaining records.

The JDBC driver class for Redshift accounts is bundled with the com.amazon.redshift.jdbc42.Driver as the default driver. This upgrade is backward-compatible. The existing pipelines will continue to work as expected and the new pipelines will use the Redshift Driver as the default driver. SnapLogic will support providing fixes for the issues you might encounter with accounts that use the PostgreSQL driver only until November 2023. After November 2023, SnapLogic will not provide support for the issues with the PostgreSQL driver. Therefore, we recommend you to migrate from the PostgreSQL JDBC driver to the Redshift JDBC driver. Learn more about migrating from the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver to the Amazon Redshift Driver. (432patches20101)
