Commands can be executed individually by the session with a call to "execute()".

Obtaining the Table Object

The query supplied to this method is constructed using the associated Table object of a mapped class. This Table object is obtained from the mapped class's metadata field, as below:

AccountCollection_table = AccountCollection.metadata.tables["AccountCollection"]

Once the table object is obtained, the write operations are executed in the following ways. The queries are executed immediately without the need for a call to "commit()":

Insert

The following example adds a new record to the table:

session.execute(AccountCollection_table.insert(), {"ObjectID": "Jon Doe", "AccountName": "John"})

Update

The following example modifies an existing record in the table:

session.execute(AccountCollection_table.update().where(AccountCollection_table.c.ObjectID == "'00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'").values(ObjectID="Jon Doe", AccountName="John"))

Delete

The following example removes an existing record from the table:

session.execute(AccountCollection_table.delete().where(AccountCollection_table.c.ObjectID == "'00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'"))
