Connect SQL form - Completing the Delete tab

Updated on August 16, 2022

Connect SQL form – Completing the Delete tab

As a best practice, include only one SQL statement on this tab. If your situation requires multiple statements, place one statement each in separate Connect SQL rules. Your activity can cause the statements to be executed in the desired sequence. If your situation requires many statements executed in sequence, consider using a stored procedure.

Note: As an alternative, if your application needs to perform a simple operations against an external database, it is best practice to use the External Database Table Mapping wizard or the Connector and Metadata wizard or the to configure access to the rows as an external class. When such external access is configured for an external table, you can use the Obj-Open, Obj-Browse, and other Obj- methods to interact with that table through a class that represents it; you do not need to create SQL connector rules. However, you can still use the Delete tab to enter the SQL to delete a row or rows from a relational database. The SQL statement in this tab operates in conjunction with an activity that uses the RDB-Delete method.
FieldDescription
Delete SQL Follow the guidelines in Data Mapping in SQL. Enter an SQL statement directly into the text box. You can use a DELETE statement, TRUNCATE statement, or DROP statement in this tab.
Error Handler Flow Optional. Identify a flow rule that is to be started when this connector rule is started by a flow rule but fails when the Integrator shape throws a ConnectorException exception. The default flow rule Work-.ConnectionProblem provides one approach for handling such problems.
Test Connectivity After you save this rule, you can click to confirm connectivity to the database. No database operations are performed.
