2022-04-0721.0.8132Google SheetsAdded
  • Added support for querying Sheets by specifying the SpreadsheetId_SheetId instead of SpreadsheetName_SheetName. Just set the UseIdAsTableName connection property to true and use: SpreadsheetId_SheetId in the queries. For ex: `SELECT * FROM 11696gdF5QUL1EnYikYiUeMTHRqA1111KbdYDoINqI_1151117664`
2022-01-1221.0.8047Google SheetsChanged

Columns will instead be named appropriately based on the range instead of starting at A,B,C, etc. This only impacts tables when the Header connection property is set to false. For example: `SELECT * FROM Spreadsheet_Sheet1#C1:F5`. The column names are: C, D, E, F. Previously the driver returned columns with names starting from A: A,B,C,D.
2021-09-0221.0.7915GeneralAdded
  • Added support for the STRING_SPLIT table-valued function in the CROSS APPLY clause.
2021-08-0721.0.7889GeneralChanged

2021-08-0621.0.7888GeneralChanged
  • Added the new sys_primarykeys system table.
2021-07-2321.0.7874GeneralChanged
  • Updated the Literal Function Names for relative date/datetime functions. Previously, relative date/datetime functions resolved to a different value when used in the projection as opposed to the predicate. For example: SELECT LAST_MONTH() AS lm, Col FROM Table WHERE Col > LAST_MONTH(). Formerly, the two LAST_MONTH() methods would resolve to different datetimes. Now, they will match.
  • As a replacement for the previous behavior, the relative date/datetime functions in the criteria may have an 'L' appended to them. For example: WHERE col > L_LAST_MONTH(). This will continue to resolve to the same values that were previously calculated in the criteria. Note that the "L_" prefix will only work in the predicate - it not available for the projection.
2021-06-1821.0.7839Google SheetsAdded
  • Added support for the GOOGLEJSONBLOB JWT certificate type. This works like the existing GOOGLEJSON certificate type except that the certificate is provided as JSON text instead of as a file path.

  • Updated how display sizes are determined for varchar primary key and foreign key columns so they will match the reported length of the column.

  • Reduced the length to 255 for varchar primary key and foreign key columns.
2021-04-1621.0.7776GeneralChanged
