Executing Queries
This section describes how to execute queries using MySQL remoting from any tool that can connect to MySQL.
When executing queries, you use a two-part name format, as shown below,
[<Schema Name (normally but not always the service name)>].[<Table Name>]where
- Schema Name is the name of the system schema or user-defined schema.
- Table Name is the name of the table you are copying data from.
SELECT Statements
To create new records:SELECT * FROM [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES] WHERE CustomerName = 'NewTech Industries'Note that if the data source supports case-sensitive identifiers, it is not possible to query tables of the same name that only vary by upper or lower case-sensitive (ex: Account and ACCOUNT in the same schema). This is because MySQL treats identifiers as case-insensitive, so multiple tables of the same name in a single schema are fundamentally incompatible with the MySQL protocols.
INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE Statements
To insert, update, or delete a single row of data (that is, not a batch of records), you need to use the two-part name. For example:INSERT INTO [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES] (CustomerName) VALUES ('NewTech Industries');
Bulk Operations
To perform bulk operations, you can use syntax similar to the following:
You can run a bulk INSERT using a SELECT query in place of a VALUES list.
INSERT INTO [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES] ([CustomerName]) SELECT [CustomerName] FROM [Local_INVOICES]You can run a bulk UPATE using a JOIN with a local table.
UPDATE [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES] INNER JOIN [Local_INVOICES] ON [Local_INVOICES].[Id] = [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES].[Id] SET [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES].[CustomerName].[Local_CustomerName]You can run a bulk DELETE using the IN filter with sub-SELECT query.
DELETE FROM [ZohoBooks].[INVOICES WHERE [Id] IN (SELECT [Id] FROM Local_INVOICES)
Execute Stored Procedures
Use the following to run the stored procedure:Call CreateJob('Insert')
