SQL SELECT Query for Load Data

The SQL query specific to your database type (MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, etc.). Use question mark ? in your query to represent the primary key or foreign key.

Code Block
languagesql
titleExample
linenumberstrue
SELECT
   * 
FROM
   app_fd_table 
WHERE
   id = ?
Note

If a column name contains reserved keywords, do ensure it is encapsulated properly.

For example for MySQL, if the column identifier itself contains a dot symbol ( . ), it should be encapsulated like this:

Code Block
languagesql
SELECT `myAppName.myColumn` FROM app_fd_myTable;
Info
titleTable & Column Naming
  • For database tables created by Joget Forms, Joget adds a "c_" in front of table column names (or "t_" if your column name starts with a number) and "app_fd_" in front of database table names.
  • If you use environment hash variables to store SQL query strings, use "?noescape" to escape SQL query strings in JDBC binders to prevent the "<>" "not equal" operator from being converted, i.e. disables XSS prevention checking. Read here for more information..

Handling for field workflow variable?
