The connection is also used to issue INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE commands to the data source. Parameters can be used with these statements if desired.

Note that the connector does not support transactions. As with normal write operations, all SQL statements executed by this connector affect the data source immediately. Call the connection's commit() method following the execution.

Insert

The following example adds a new record to the table:

cmd = "INSERT INTO Users (Id, ProfileFirstName) VALUES (?, ?)"
params = ["John Doe", "Jane Doe"]
cur = conn.execute(cmd, params)
print("Records affected: ", cur.rowcount)

Update

The following example modifies an existing record in the table:

cmd = "UPDATE Users SET ProfileFirstName = ? WHERE Id = ?"
params = ["Jane Doe", "1"]
cur = conn.execute(cmd, params)
print("Records affected: ", cur.rowcount)

Delete

The following example removes an existing record from the table:

cmd = "DELETE FROM Users WHERE Id = ?"
params = ["1"]
cur = conn.execute(cmd, params)
print("Records affected: ", cur.rowcount)
