i have multiple transformation stage in a redshift data flow.
i am trying to use an insert statement in a transform by disabling the "Generate Table Output".
is that possible in domo ?
Hi all,Can anybody help @Ravendran with their question?
Thanks!
Hi @Ravendran,
It is possible to insert records into a transform dataset using an INSERT statement. The syntax to insert records is:
INSERT INTO table (column_name) VALUES ('value')
Simply add this command in your transform and disable the "Generate Table Output" textbox.
Please let me know if that does not answer your question.
@Ravendran, did creed's reply help answer your question?
Is it possible to do the insert (or delete) on a domo dataset? I have a salesforce dataset that I want to be able to delete records from and insert new records on a daily basis. Being able to do the delete and insert on only the transform dataset does not help me unless I can write back to the original domo dataset that was used as input, but I do not believe that is possible.
@danielbest, please feel free to open up a new thread for better exposure to your question.
Did this ever get resolved? I'm trying to do the same thing (insert records into a DOMO dataset on a recurring basis) via redshift dataflow but not sure if it's possible.
@btm who on the product side can review this to provide guidance?
Hi,
I have the same question. Was there ever a resolution to this?
I figured out that you can add an output of a dataflow as an input of the same dataflow. I have been using this as a little trick to updating an existing DOMO dataset. So, I have my new/raw data and my existing set. I have the same output of the dataflow as an input and am updating the data with my new records. I don't set the dataflow to re-run when the dataset that is both an input and output is updated. Only runs when the raw data has changed. Hope this helps.
