UPDATE Statements
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 = "User=username;Password=password;CompanyId=CompanyId;Url=https://api4.successfactors.com";
using (SAPSuccessFactorsConnection connection = new SAPSuccessFactorsConnection(connectionString)) {
int rowsAffected;
SAPSuccessFactorsCommand cmd = new SAPSuccessFactorsCommand("UPDATE SampleTable_1 SET Column1='John' WHERE Id = @myId", connection);
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SAPSuccessFactorsParameter("myId","6"));
rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "User=username;Password=password;CompanyId=CompanyId;Url=https://api4.successfactors.com"
Using connection As New SAPSuccessFactorsConnection(connectionString)
Dim rowsAffected As Integer
Dim cmd As New SAPSuccessFactorsCommand("UPDATE SampleTable_1 SET Column1='John' WHERE Id = @myId", connection)
cmd.Parameters.Add(New SAPSuccessFactorsParameter("myId", "6"))
rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using
