To modify existing records, use UPDATE statements.

Update Syntax

The UPDATE statement takes as input a comma-separated list of columns and new column values as name-value pairs in the SET clause, as shown in the following example:

UPDATE <table_name> SET <select_statement> | {<column_reference> = <expression> [ , ... ]} WHERE { Id = <expression>  } [ { AND | OR } ... ] 

<expression> ::=
  | @ <parameter> 
  | ?
  | <literal>

You can use the ExecuteNonQuery method to execute data manipulation commands and retrieve the rows affected, as shown in the following example:

C#

String connectionString = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientId=MyConsumerKey;OAuthClientSecret=MyConsumerSecret;CallbackURL=http://localhost:portNumber";
using (TableauCRMConnection connection = new TableauCRMConnection(connectionString)) {
  int rowsAffected;
  TableauCRMCommand cmd = new TableauCRMCommand("UPDATE Dataset_Opportunity SET CloseDate='1-1-2018' WHERE Id = @myId", connection);
  cmd.Parameters.Add(new TableauCRMParameter("myId","25"));
  rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientId=MyConsumerKey;OAuthClientSecret=MyConsumerSecret;CallbackURL=http://localhost:portNumber"
Using connection As New TableauCRMConnection(connectionString)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer
  Dim cmd As New TableauCRMCommand("UPDATE Dataset_Opportunity SET CloseDate='1-1-2018' WHERE Id = @myId", connection)
  cmd.Parameters.Add(New TableauCRMParameter("myId", "25"))
  rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using
