Settings
(1) Source DB alias: First select a database alias. Note: Variables (syntax @MYVAR@, type "String") can also be used here. These are available via the drop-down menu.
(2) SQL console: See section SQL console.
(3) Open Wizard: Here you can easily create the SQL query (4) with a wizard.
(4) SQL query: The SQL query created by the wizard (3). The ETL/ELT source fields are created based on the name after the AS. You can also adjust it manually. In addition, you can insert WHERE conditions and use ETL/ELT variables in them, e.g. WHERE id_partner=@VAR_ID@ Note: The value of the variable can be passed, for example, by a workflow when it starts the pipeline. Important note: Please note that you can only customise the ETL/ELT source field names using the AS keyword. SELECT id_partner... therefore cannot be successfully changed to SELECT my_id_partner... to get the ETL/ELT source field my_id_partner, but only via SELECT id_partner AS 'my_id_partner'...
(5) Format SQL: Self-explanatory.
(6) Test SQL: Tests the SQL query (4) and returns the first row of the result set.
(7) Miscellaneous ETL driver settings: You can specify database properties here, which may override the properties from the alias. The changeable JDBC properties are predefined. Unknown properties are ignored and removed from the list.
