Overview

You can use this Snap to process data in bulk. The Snap uses Oracle SQL*Loader internally to perform the bulk load action. The input data is first written to either a temporary data file (on a Windows JCC) or a named pipe (on a Linux JCC). Then the Oracle SQL*Loader loads the data from the data file/named pipe into the target table.

The Snap uses EZCONNECT to connect to Oracle. It does not use TNSNames or LDAP connections.

JDBC Driver Upgrade

The Oracle JDBC Driver is upgraded from OJDBC6 JAR (v11.2.0.4) to OJDBC10 JAR (v19.20.0.0) in the latest distribution in October 2023 and deployed to the stable distribution in the November 2023 release (after the Snaplex upgrade). The latest JDBC driver upgrade is backward-compatible. Learn more: Oracle JDBC Driver Upgrade from v11.2.0.4 to v19.20.0.0 and JOOQ Upgrade from v3.9.1 to 3.17.x.

You can consume this driver upgrade with the 434patches23000 Snap Pack version.

Behavior Change

This JDBC driver upgrade has resulted in specific behavior changes that include errors, status codes, and success and failure messages. Learn more about the behavior changes to ensure your migration to the upgraded driver is seamless.

Snap type:

Write

Prerequisites:

None.

Known Issues: When processing data, the Oracle Bulk Load Snap executes in an infinite loop when database storage reaches its full capacity.

Support and limitations:

Columns in a table that do not contain actual values but are generated based on a formula are referred as virtual columns. Tables containing virtual columns cannot be bulk loaded using this Snap. The table must only contain actual values to be bulk loaded. A workaround for this issue is to use a view that specifies only the non-virtual columns and use that view for the bulk load. For more information about creating a view in the Oracle database, refer to Creating a view in Oracle database.

Does not work in Ultra Pipelines.

Account:

This Snap uses account references created on the Accounts page of SnapLogic Manager to handle access to this endpoint. See Oracle Account for information on setting up this type of account.

Views:

Input

This Snap has one document input view by default.

A second view can be added for metadata for the table as a document so that the target absent table can be created in the database with a similar schema as the source table. This schema is usually from the second output of a database Select Snap. If the schema is from a different database, there is no guarantee that all the data types would be properly handled.

Output

This Snap has at most one document output view.

Error

This Snap has at most one document error view and produces zero or more documents in the view. All error messages for rejected input data are routed to the error view AFTER the whole data loading execution is done, because those messages are extracted from the log file of Oracle SQL*Loader which is only available after the Oracle SQL*Loader finishes the loading.

Table Creation

If the table does not exist when the Snap tries to do the load, and the Create table property is set, the table will be created with the columns and data types Required. to hold the values in the first input document. If you would like the table to be created with the same schema as a source table, you can connect the second output view of a Select Snap to the second input view of this Snap. The extra view in the Select and Bulk Load Snaps are used to pass metadata about the table, effectively allowing you to replicate a table from one database to another.

The table metadata document that is read in by the second input view contains a dump of the JDBC DatabaseMetaData class. The document can be manipulated to affect the CREATE TABLE statement that is generated by this Snap. For example, to rename the name column to full_name, you can use a Mapper (Data) Snap that sets the path $.columns.name.COLUMN_NAME to full_name. The document contains the following fields:

columns - Contains the result of the getColumns() method with each column as a separate field in the object. Changing the COLUMN_NAME value will change the name of the column in the created table. Note that if you change a column name, you do not need to change the name of the field in the row input documents. The Snap will automatically translate from the original name to the new name. For example, when changing from name to full_name, the name field in the input document will be put into the "full_name" column. You can also drop a column by setting the COLUMN_NAME value to null or the empty string. The other fields of interest in the column definition are:
- TYPE_NAME - The type to use for the column. If this type is not known to the database, the DATA_TYPE field will be used as a fallback. If you want to explicitly set a type for a column, set the DATA_TYPE field.
- _SL_PRECISION - Contains the result of the getPrecision() method. This field is used along with the _SL_SCALE field for setting the precision and scale of a DECIMAL or NUMERIC field.
- _SL_SCALE - Contains the result of the getScale() method. This field is used along with the _SL_PRECISION field for setting the precision and scale of a DECIMAL or NUMERIC field.
primaryKeyColumns - Contains the result of the getPrimaryKeys() method with each column as a separate field in the object.
declaration - Contains the result of the getTables() method for this table. The values in this object are just informational at the moment. The target table name is taken from the Snap property.
importedKeys - Contains the foreign key information from the getImportedKeys() method. The generated CREATE TABLE statement will include FOREIGN KEY constraints based on the contents of this object. Note that you will need to change the PKTABLE_NAME value if you changed the name of the referenced table when replicating it.
indexInfo - Contains the result of the getIndexInfo() method for this table with each index as a separated field in the object. Any UNIQUE indexes in here will be included in the CREATE TABLE statement generated by this Snap.

The Snap will not automatically fix some errors encountered during table creation since they may require user intervention to resolve correctly. For example, if the source table contains a column with a type that does not have a direct mapping in the target database, the Snap will fail to execute. You will then need to add a Mapper (Data) Snap to change the metadata document to explicitly set the values needed to produce a valid CREATE TABLE statement.

The BLOB type is not supported by this Snap.

Settings

Label*

Specify 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

Specify the database schema name. Alternatively, click the Suggestion icon to fetch the list database schemas.

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

Default Value: [None]
Example: SYS

Table name*

Specify the table on which to execute the bulk load operation.

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

Default Value: [None]
Example: people

Create table if not present

Select this checkbox to automatically create the target table if it does not exist.

If a second input view is configured for the Snap and it contains a document with schema (metadata) from the source table, the Snap creates the new (target) table using the same schema (metadata). However, if the schema comes from a different database, the Snap might fail with the Unable to create table: "<table_name>" error due to data type incompatibility.
In the absence of a second input view, the Snap creates a table based on the data types of the columns generated from the first row of the input document (first input view).

Due to implementation details, a newly created table is not visible to subsequent database Snaps during runtime validation. If you want to immediately use the newly updated data you must use a child Pipeline that is invoked through a Pipeline Execute Snap.

Default Value: Not selected

Sqlldr absolute path

Specify the absolute path of the sqlldr program in the JCC's file system. If empty, the Snap will look for it in the JCC's environment variable PATH.

On Windows, a value must be specified and must be entered manually and the path to the sqlldr executable should include the ".exe" extension to ensure the executable is actually referenced.

Default Value: [None]

Example: /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/sqlldr (For Linux)

C:\app\Administrator\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin\sqlldr.exe (For Windows)

Insert mode

Available insert modes when loading data into table.

INSERT - Load rows only if the target table is empty.
APPEND - If data already exists in the table, the new rows are appended to the table. If data does not already exist, the new rows are simply loaded.
REPLACE - First delete all the rows in the existing table and then load rows.
TRUNCATE - First truncate the table and then load rows.

Default Value: APPEND
See this doc for more information.

Maximum error count*

Specify the maximum number of rows which can fail before the bulk load operation is stopped.

Default Value: 50
Example:10 (if you want the Pipeline execution to continue as far as the number of failed records are less than 10)

Use direct path load

Select this check box to use direct path load mode of SQLLDR program. Typically, used when loading large data sets. This substantially improves the bulk load performance by reducing loading time.

Default Value: Selected

Skip virtual columns

Select this checkbox to skip virtual columns to prevent errors while loading data.

Default Value: Selected

Additional SQL Loader Parameters

Use this field set to define additional SQL Load parameters if any. This field set contains Param Name and Param Value fields.

Parameter Name

Choose the parameter name for SQL. Available options are:

BINDSIZE
COLUMNARRAY ROWS
DIRECT
LOAD
MULTITHREADING
PARALLEL
READSIZE
RESUMABLE
RESUMABLE_NAME
RESUMABLE_TIMEOUT
ROWS
SILENT
SKIP
SKIP_INDEX
MAINTENANCE
SKIP_UNUSABLE_INDEXES
STREAMSIZE

See SQL* Loader parameters for more information.

Default Value: N/A
Example: COLUMNARRAYROWS

Parameter Value

Specify the value for the parameter selected above.

Default Value: N/A
Example: 2000

Column Length Overrides

Use this field set to define values for overriding the column length that includes CLOB (Character Large Object) and NCLOB (National Character Large Object) data types. Click to add additional column names and their lengths. Add each column in a separate row.

The field set contains the following fields:

Column Name
Length

Column Name

Specify or select the name of the column in the table that you want to load.

Default Value: N/A
Example: DESCRIPTION, MESSAGE_BODY

Length (in bytes)

Specify a value (in bytes) for the column length.

Default Value: N/A
Example: 10

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.

In a scenario where the Auto commit on the account is set to true, and the downstream Snap does depends on the data processed on an Upstream Database Bulk Load Snap, use the Script Snap to add delay for the data to be available.

For example, when performing a create, insert and a delete function sequentially on a pipeline, using a Script Snap helps in creating a delay between the insert and delete function or otherwise it may turn out that the delete function is triggered even before inserting the records on the table.

Troubleshooting

Example

This example loads 6 records to table TECTONIC.TERENCE_BULK_TEST2 with Oracle Bulk Load Snap, and three of them are invalid records which cannot be inserted and will be routed to the error view.

The definition of Table TECTONIC.TERENCE_BULK_TEST2 :

CREATE TABLE "TECTONIC"."TERENCE_BULK_TEST2" ( "id" NUMBER, "first_name" VARCHAR2(4000), "last_name" VARCHAR2(4000) )

The input data defined in JSON Generator Snap:

There are 3 rows of data whose ID column are strings, which is invalid when inserting into table TECTONIC.TERENCE_BULK_TEST2.

Release	Snap Pack Version	Date	Type	Updates
November 2024	439patches29008	14 Nov 2024	Latest	Fixed an issue with Oracle Execute, Select, and Stored Procedure Snaps where the data was displayed in an unexpected structure and without the actual row address value when querying table columns of `ROWID` type. Now, the Snaps handle the `ROWID` type columns correctly to prevent the display of the nested output when `ROWID` is combined in the query with other selected columns. Breaking change: With the `439patches29008`Snap Pack version if any of your existing Oracle pipelines use the encoded `ROWID`(by manually handling the Base64 encoded data), your pipelines might break. To prevent your pipelines from failing, you must update your Snap Pack version to the latest version. Behavior change: Earlier, the `ROWID` columns were displayed in binary (Base64 encoded data) form in the output. With the `439patches29008`, the Oracle Execute and Select Snaps display the `ROWID` columns in string form in the output (which can be used for other operations downstream).

"yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.SSS", (ex: 2016-11-07T10:55:12) "yyyymmddThhmmss.SSS", (ex: 20161107T105512) ISO8601 formats with time zone. ONLY 'zulu' and 'UTC' at this time. Note that there is no space before the 'Z' but is a space before the 'UTC'. "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.SSSZ" "yyyymmddThhmmss.SSSZ" "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.SSS UTC" "yyyymmddThhmmss.SSS UTC" ex: 2016-11-07T10:55:12Z ex: 20161107T105512Z ex: 2016-11-07T10:55:12 UTC ex: 20161107T105512 UTC The ISO8601 format is used by many web services, Oracle Bulk Loader, and others.

Enhanced the Oracle Select Snap to fully support SQL statements with/without expressions & SQL bind variables. Extended support for Oracle Thin Dynamic accounts.
4.5.1	oracle1583	18 May 2016	Stable	Updated the Bulk Load Snap with a new field, Use direct path load, to enhance bulk loading performance. Resolved an issue with Oracle Select Snap failing if the table name included a dot (.) character.
4.4.1	NA	18 Mar 2016	Stable	Oracle Select: Resolved an issue with database access error occurring while iterating over table name result set when using an uploaded driver with a different version than the bundled driver. Resolved an issue with Oracle Stored Procedure Snap not accepting CLOB data. Made improvements to JDBC auto-commit consistency.
4.4	NA	13 Feb 2016	Stable	Table List Snap: A new option, Compute table graph, now lets you determine whether or not to generate dependents data into the output. Oracle Bulk Load Resolved an issue with a pipeline never completing. Resolved an issue with pipeline statistics, bulk load summary statistics not matching and bulk load summary was confusing. Maximum error count field added to set the maximum number of rows which can fail before the bulk load operation is stopped. Mixed-case matching option removed. Added error messaging to handle BLOB type data trying to be loaded to an Oracle table when not supported. Resolved an issue with the record separator of the input file not being processed correctly. Improved error messages for when data types do not match. Oracle Stored Procedure: All accessible objects are now visible during design.
4.3.2	NA	15 Jan 2016	Stable	Resolved an issue with Oracle Select not reading table names: Database access error occurred while iterating over table name result set. Resolved an issue with Oracle Bulk load failure: String index out of range: -1.
NA	NA	06 Jun 2015	Stable	Oracle Lookup failed in preview if DATE column was used for Lookup conditions Dynamic DB queries now supported in the Execute Snap. The SQL statement property now can be set as an expression property. When it is an expression, it will be evaluated with each input document and one SQL statement per each input document will be executed. Known issue: When the SQL statement property is an expression, the pipeline parameters are shown in the suggest, but not the input schema. With the SQL statement property set as an expression, the Snap can be exposed to SQL injection. Please use this feature with caution. Oracle Insert: When a string value is entered into a date col, its successfully inserting into db with null Oracle Stored Procedure: parameter type list was not populating even if a procedure had custom types defined.
NA	NA	15 May 2015	Stable	Oracle Execute error - no more documents will be written to SLFS Oracle Execute Snap failing with maximum number of documents reached Oracle Select Snap - Early dates are corrupted when reading data Oracle select- with date data type does not return Time(hh:mm:ss) Oracle Stored Procedure fails with error- Reason: invalid name pattern: TECTONIC.null Oracle Stored Procedure - fails with - "invalid name pattern: TECTONIC.strarray32 " when type name given in lower case
