OracleQuery

Updated on October 19, 2022

Use the OracleQuery when the data source you want to use in your automation resides in an Oracle database.

The OracleQuery returns a dataset or executes a command (such as insert or update). If the query returns data, the dataset is created as part of the Oracle component. You can display the returned data by using the TableView component.

Oracle client 8.1.7 or greater must be installed on any desktop using the OracleQuery.

When you add this component to an automation, the system places it on the Global tab of the component tray. For more information, see Adding Global Components to an Automation. This component must be global to be referenced by other automations in the project.

The Oracle statement. Use the colon (:) for parameters in the OracleQuery.

Note: Do not dynamically change the CommandText if there are parameters in the command.

  • Use Text when the Command Text is a SQL Select statement.

Parameters

Note that you must test the query for the query parameters to be fully defined in the project. If you run the project without testing the query in Studio, an error is thrown. Click the Test Query link to test the query with the parameters.

Note: The size of the parameter you enter when you test the query sets the allowable runtime size limit.
