Oracle Query

Activity Description​

Executes an Oracle SELECT query on an Oracle database and returns a table.

Output​

A ResultSet (table).

note

To use Oracle activities, you need to install the full administrator package of Oracle Client on the machine where the Resolve Actions Express executor is installed.

After installing the Oracle Client, edit the activity's configuration by adding the path to the client as follows:

  1. In the Resolve database, select the dbo.TBL_ActivitiesSource table.
  2. In the SourceCode column, search for OracleQuery.
  3. In the Assembly segment of the activity's XML code, update the path to the client.

Settings​

  • Query – The query's text.
  • Connection String – Specifies the required connection string in order to connect the database.
    For example:
    Data Source=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=MyHost)(PORT=MyPort))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=MyOracleSID)));User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword
  • User Authentication – Determines whether a user's authentication credentials are required to execute the query (if the credentials are not specified in the clear text connection string).
  • User name – An Oracle user authorized to execute the query (e.g., oradba).
  • Password – The user's password.
note

To avoid translation of %TEXT% (in case TEXT is not a variable name), add @ before the percentage character. For example: Select * From TableName Where ColumnName LIKE '@%TEXT%'.

note

To use the word variable within a query, use the following convention: @%variable% (else it is referred to as a system variable).
