I created a new table in the Bluemix SQL Database service by uploading a csv (baseball.csv) and took the default table name of "baseball".
I created a simple app in Node.js which is just trying to select data from the table with select * from baseball, but I keep getting the following error:
[IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0204N "USERxxxx.BASEBALL" in an undefined name
Why can't it find my database table?
This issue seems independent of bluemix, rather it is usage error.
This error is possibly caused by following:
The object identified by name is not defined in the database.
User response
Ensure that the object name (including any required qualifiers) is correctly specified in the SQL statement and it exists.
try running "list tables" from command prompt to check if your table spelling is correct or not.

I created the table from SQL Database web UI in bluemix and took the default name of baseball. It looks like this creates a case-sensitive table name.
Unfortunately for me, the sql_db libary (and all db2 clients I believe) auto-capitalizes the SQL query into "SELECT * FROM BASEBALL"
The solution was to either
A. Explicitly name my table BASEBALL in the web UI; or
B. Modify my sql query by quoting the table name:
select * from "baseball"

I'm trying to do a simple incremental update from an on-prem database as source to Azure SQL database based on a varchar column called "RP" in On-Prem database that contains "date+staticdescription" for example: "20210314MetroFactory"
1- I've created a Lookup activity called Lookup1 using a table created in Azure SQL Database and uses this Query
"Select RP from SubsetwatermarkTable"
2- I've created a Copy data activity where the source settings have this Query
"Select * from SourceDevSubsetTable WHERE RP NOT IN '#{activity('Lookup1').output.value}'"
When debugging -- I'm getting the error:
Failure type: User configuration issue
Details: Failure happened on 'Source' side.
'Type=System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException,Message=Incorrect syntax near
'[{"RP":"20210307_1Plant

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and how to fix it even if it requires creating more activities.
Note: There is no LastModifiedDate column in the table. Also I haven't yet created the StoredProcedure that will update the Lookup table when it is done with the incremental copy.
Steve is right as to why it is failling and the query you need in the Copy Data.
As he says, you want a comma-separated list of quoted values to use in your IN clause.
You can get this more easily though - from your Lookup directly using this query:-
select stuff(
(
select ','''+rp+''''
from subsetwatermarktable
for xml path('')
)
, 1, 1, ''
) as in_clause
The sub-query gets the comma separated list with quotes around each rp-value, but has a spurious comma at the start - the outer query with stuff removes this.
Now tick the First Row Only box on the Lookup and change your Copy Data source query to:
select *
from SourceDevSubsetTable
where rp not in (#{activity('lookup').output.firstRow.in_clause})
The result of #activity('Lookup1').output.value is an array like your error shows
[{"RP":"20210307_1Plant
1KAO"},{"RP":"20210314MetroFactory"},{"RP":"20210312MetroFactory"},{"RP":"20210312MetroFactory"},{"RP":"2'.,Source=.Net
SqlClient Data
Provider,SqlErrorNumber=102,Class=15,ErrorCode=-2146232060,State=1,Errors=[{Class=15,Number=102,State=1,Message=Incorrect

'[{"RP":"20210311MetroFactory"},{"RP":"20210311MetroFactory"},{"RP":"202103140MetroFactory"},{"RP":"20210308MetroFactory"},{"RP":"2'.,},]
However, your SQL should be like this:Select * from SourceDevSubsetTable WHERE RP NOT IN ('20210307_1Plant 1KAO','20210314MetroFactory',...).
To achieve this in ADF, you need to do something like this:
create three variables like the following screenshot:
loop your result of #activity('Lookup1').output.value and append 'item().RP' to arrayvalues:
expression:#activity('Lookup1').output.value
expression:#concat(variables('apostrophe'),item().RP,variables('apostrophe'))
3.cast arrayvalues to string and add parentheses by Set variable activity
expression:#concat('(',join(variables('arrayvalues'),','),')')
4.copy to your Azure SQL database
expression:Select * from SourceDevSubsetTable WHERE RP NOT IN #{variables('stringvalues')}
I am trying to get the count of all records present in cosmos db in a lookup activity of azure data factory. I need this value to do a comparison with other value activity outputs.
The query I used is SELECT VALUE count(1) from c
When I try to preview the data after inserting this query I get an error saying
One or more errors occurred. Unable to cast object of type
'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JValue' to type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject'
as shown in the below image:
snapshot of my azure lookup activity settings
Could someone help me in resolving this error and if this is the limitation of azure data factory how can I get the count of all the rows of the cosmos db document using some other ways inside azure data factory?
I reproduce your issue on my side exactly.
I think the count result can't be mapped as normal JsonObject. As workaround,i think you could just use Azure Function Activity(Inside Azure Function method ,you could use SDK to execute any sql as you want) to output your desired result: {"number":10}.Then bind the Azure Function Activity with other activities in ADF.
Here is contradiction right now:
The query sql outputs a scalar array,not other things like jsonObject,or even jsonstring.
However, ADF Look Up Activity only accepts JObject,not JValue. I can't use any convert built-in function here because the query sql need to be produced with correct syntax anyway. I already submitted a ticket to MS support team,but get no luck with this limitation.
I also tried select count(1) as num from c which works in the cosmos db portal. But it still has limitation because the sql crosses partitions.
So,all i can do here is trying to explain the root cause of issue,but can't change the product behaviours.
2 rough ideas:
1.Try no-partitioned collection to execute above sql to produce json output.
2.If the count is not large,try to query columns from db and loop the result with ForEach Activity.
You can use:
select top 1 column from c order by column desc
I have a very simple ADF pipeline to copy data from local mongoDB (self-hosted integration environment) to Azure SQL database.
My pipleline is able to copy the data from mongoDB and insert into SQL db.
Currently if I run the pipeline it inserts duplicate data if run multiple times.
I have made _id column as unique in SQL database and now running pipeline throws and error because of SQL constraint wont letting it insert the record.
How do I check for duplicate _id before inserting into SQL db?
should I use Pre-copy script / stored procedure?
Some guidance / directions would be helpful on where to add extra steps. Thanks
Azure Data Factory Data Flow can help you achieve that:
You can follow these steps:
Add two sources: Cosmos db table(source1) and SQL database table(source2).
Using Join active to get all the data from two tables(left join/full join/right join) on Cosmos table.id= SQL table.id.
AlterRow expression to filter the duplicate _id, it not duplicate then insert it.
Then mapping the no-duplicate column to the Sink SQL database table.
Hope this helps.
You Should implement your SQL Logic to eliminate duplicate at the Pre-Copy Script
Currently I got the solution using a Stored Procedure which look like a lot less work as far this requirement is concerned.
I have followed this article:
https://www.cathrinewilhelmsen.net/2019/12/16/copy-sql-server-data-azure-data-factory/
I created table type and used in stored procedure to check for duplicate.
my sproc is very simple as shown below:
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spInsertIntoDb]
(#sresults dbo.targetSensingResults READONLY)
AS
BEGIN
MERGE dbo.sensingresults AS target
USING #sresults AS source
ON (target._id = source._id)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (_id, sensorNumber, applicationType, place, spaceType, floorCode, zoneCountNumber, presenceStatus, sensingTime, createdAt, updatedAt, _v)
VALUES (source._id, source.sensorNumber, source.applicationType, source.place, source.spaceType, source.floorCode,
source.zoneCountNumber, source.presenceStatus, source.sensingTime, source.createdAt, source.updatedAt, source.updatedAt);
END
I think using stored proc should do for and also will help in future if I need to do more transformation.
Please let me know if using sproc in this case has potential risk in future ?
To remove the duplicates you can use the pre-copy script. OR what you can do is you can store the incremental or new data into a temp table using copy activity and use a store procedure to delete only those Ids from the main table which are in temp table after deletion insert the temp table data into the main table. and then drop the temp table.
So I have a fairly simple query (proof of concept) where I'm able to dynamically pull in data from a database depending on my Excel sheet inputs. For example:
let
Source = Odbc.Query("dsn=Dev 2", "select * #(lf)from job_id JI#(lf)where JI.job_ID = " & Text.From(GetNamedRange("SQLJobInstanceID")) & "#(lf)")
in
Source
Hurray, it works! However, when I was setting up the connection, I needed to log in. Part of the login includes the schema that I wanted to connect to. Username[Schema] is how it's done. Now that I've connected, I'd like to select a different schema to connect to - but I'm not sure how I can either modify the schema, or log out and log back in.
(Also curious if the connection is storing my credentials, which would be problematic, or if other people would need to log in with their credentials)
I believe I can also edit which ODBC connection I'm using by editing the "dsn=Dev 2" portion of the code (Again, will probably turn it into a named range drop down menu.... the challenge becomes dynamically figuring out what ODBC options each user has and pulling those through...)
Thank you
When i run the following query in the Azure, I am getting no records. and getting the message "Query succeeded: Affected rows: 0."
1) SELECT * FROM sys.resource_usage where database_name='DB_NAME';
When i run this following query in azure, i get this error , "Failed to execute query. Error: Invalid object name 'sys.resource_stats'."
2) SELECT * FROM sys.resource_st where database_name='DB_NAME';
Please help me solve this issue, as im trying to track the daily database usage i.e amount of data stored in DB.
I suppose the issue is with your current db context, what does SELECT DB_NAME() return? Is that a user database? As per BOL 'This view is available to all user roles with permissions to connect to the virtual master database.' you'd have to connect to the master database before query against both sys.resource_usage and sys.resource_stats.
As Lin mentioned ,You have to connect to Master database to see output of sys.resource_stats
For DBspecific DTU usage , you can use sys.dm_db_resource_stats ..this stores data for every 15 seconds
and your question says
as im trying to track the daily database usage i.e amount of data stored in DB.
you can use below DMV to track that
SELECT sys.objects.name, SUM(reserved_page_count) * 8.0 / 1024
FROM sys.dm_db_partition_stats, sys.objects
WHERE sys.dm_db_partition_stats.object_id = sys.objects.object_id
GROUP BY sys.objects.name;
GO
