I have a C# app that sends data to Smartsheet. At the moment, it's just inserting rows, based on the following:
Row rowA = new Row.AddRowBuilder(null, true, null, null, null).SetCells(cellsA).Build();
smartsheet.SheetResources.RowResources.AddRows(_SheetID, new Row[] { rowA });
There are two columns that are essentially the keys for the data, and I'd like to be able to update a row if it exists (WHERE field1 = 'key1' and field2 = 'key2'), and if no row exists with those two field values, do a row insert.
Is it possible to do an update / insert like this? Keep in mind, I'm very new to the Smartsheet API - still finding my way...
Thanks much.
You would need to do this manually today. There isn't a currenty way to ask the API to do this for you.

I am trying to delete some duplicate records from mysql table but it was not working.
I am taking help of https://www.javatpoint.com/mysql-delete-duplicate-records
If I will try with example database which is given example it was working fine.
But in my table it was not working.
DELETE S1 FROM employee_attendance AS S1 INNER JOIN employee_attendance AS S2 WHERE S1.DbKey < S2.DbKey AND S1.DivisionDbKey = S2.DivisionDbKey AND S1.Date = S2.Date AND S1.Month = S2.Month AND S1.FinancialYearDbKey = S2.FinancialYearDbKey AND S1.EmployeeDbKey = S2.EmployeeDbKey AND S1.Attendance = S2.Attendance AND S1.InTime = S2.InTime AND S1.OutTime = S2.OutTime AND S1.EmployeeDbKey = 6798 AND S1.Month = '05' AND S1.FinancialYearDbKey = 5;
I am getting error
#1205 - Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction
I have tried with another example https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/sql-query-to-delete-duplicate-rows/
DELETE FROM employee_attendance WHERE DbKey NOT IN (SELECT MAX(DbKey) FROM employee_attendance WHERE EmployeeDbKey = 6798 AND Month = '05' AND FinancialYearDbKey = '5' GROUP BY DivisionDbKey,Date,Month,FinancialYearDbKey,EmployeeDbKey,Attendance,InTime,OutTime)
I am getting same error.
#1205 - Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction
Any suggestion will be appriciated. Thank you.
I personally think this is a bad practice. You should instead make a (empty) duplicate of the table employee_attendance then define a UNIQUE KEY on that new table that will prevent duplicate entries.
Consider these steps:
Create a duplicate table:
CREATE TABLE employee_attendance_new LIKE employee_attendance;
Add UNIQUE INDEX - now, this is just a simple example. You can add or reduce columns to the unique index but make sure that you drop the existing unique index first then only you re-create:
ALTER TABLE employee_attendance_new
ADD UNIQUE INDEX unq_idx(EmployeeDbKey, date, InTime, OutTime);
Insert the data into the new table using INSERT IGNORE..:
INSERT IGNORE INTO employee_attendance_new
SELECT * FROM employee_attendance;
Check and compare both table. If you're satisfied with the result, rename those tables:
RENAME TABLE employee_attendance TO employee_attendance_old;
RENAME TABLE employee_attendance_new TO employee_attendance;
Now you have the new table with no duplicates and the old table for reference or in case there are some data you need from it.
Fiddle example
I need to merge some randomly uppercased data that has been collected in an SQLite table key_val, such that key is always lowercase and no vals are lost. There is a unique compound index on key,val.
The initial data looks like this:
key|val
abc|1
abc|5
aBc|1
aBc|5
aBc|3
aBc|2
AbC|1
abC|3
The result after the merge would be
key|val
abc|1
abc|2
abc|3
abc|5
In my programmer brain, I would
for each `key` with upper case letters;
if a lower cased `key` is found with the same value
then delete `key`
else update `key` to lower case
Re implementing the loop has a sub query for each row found with upper case letters, to check if the val already exists as a lower case key
If it does, I can delete the cased key.
From there I can UPDATE key = lower(key) as the "duplicates" have been removed.
The first cut of the programming method of finding the dupes is:
SELECT * FROM key_val as parent
WHERE parent.key != lower(parent.key)
AND 0 < (
SELECT count(s.val) FROM key_val as s
WHERE s.key = lower(parent.key) AND s.val = parent.val
)
ORDER BY parent.key DESC;
I'm assuming there's a better way to do this in SQLite? The ON CONFLICT functionality seems to me like it should be able to handle the dupe deletion on UPDATE but I'm not seeing it.
First delete all the duplicates:
DELETE FROM key_val AS k1
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT 1
FROM key_val AS k2
WHERE LOWER(k2.key) = LOWER(k1.key) AND k2.val = k1.val AND k2.rowid < k1.rowid
);
by keeping only 1 combination of key and val with the min rowid.
It is not important if you kept the key with all lower chars or not, because the 2nd step is to update the table:
UPDATE key_val
SET key = LOWER(key);
See the demo.
Honestly it might just be easier to create a new table and then insert into it. As it seems you really just want a distinct select here, use:
INSERT INTO kev_val_new ("key", val)
SELECT DISTINCT LOWER("key"), val
FROM key_val;
Once you have populated the new table, you may drop the old one, and then rename the new one to the previous name:
DROP TABLE key_val;
ALTER TABLE key_val_new RENAME TO key_val;
I agree with #Tim that it would be easire to re-create table using simple select distict lower().. statement, but that's not always easy if table has dependant objects (indexes, triggers, views). In this case this can be done as sequence of two steps:
insert lowered keys which are not still there:
insert into t
select distinct lower(tr.key) as key, tr.val
from t as tr
left join t as ts on ts.key = lower(tr.key) and ts.val = tr.val
where ts.key is null;
now when we have all lowered keys - remove other keys:
delete from t where key <> lower(key);
See fiddle: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!5/84db50/11
However this method assumes that key is always populated (otherwise it would be a strange key)
If vals can be null then "ts.val = tr.val" should be replaced with more complex stuff like ifnull(ts.val, -1) = ifnull(tr.val, -1) where -1 is some unused value (can be different). If we can't assume any unused value like -1 then it should be more complex check for null / not null cases.
I am running into a logical problem.My Trigger is:
create trigger Points1
on Posts
after insert, update
As
declare #value int
declare #postedby int
select #value= Count(Message) from Posts
select #postedby = PostedBy from Posts
update AspNetUsers set User_points = #value * 3
where ( AspNetUsers.Id = #postedby)
I dont know whether i am doing it right or not.
Two tables: AspNetUsers table with User_points column and Id Column as primary key
Posts table with PostId as primary key and PostedBy as foreign key referencing the AspNetUsers table.
Now, i want to compare PostedBy with Id column and if they both are same then update the User_Points column with +3 on every single message he posted.
Now, problem is:
1> It is inserting same number of points in every Row.It should check only currently inserted row and the PostedBy column of that row and then compare with Id column of other table and should Update user's Point of only that Id.
But same result nothing happens
Please tell me how to do it.
thanks in advance
change
select #postedby = PostedBy from Posts
to
select #postedby = PostedBy from INSERTED
'INSERTED' is a magic table that keep insert/updated data in this scope.
Same as this 'DELETED' table keep previous data in update a row
I want to delete and update a row in Gridview but that grid have values of two tables
I'm using following query for selecting-
SELECT JobMaster.Country, JobMaster.City, JobMaster.State, JobMaster.EmploymentType,
JobMaster.JobTitle, JobMaster.SpecializedArea, JobMaster.Specializedskill, JobMaster.ID,
JobMaster.[Post Assign], RAssign.RecruiterID AS Post_Assign FROM JobMaster
LEFT OUTER JOIN RAssign
ON JobMaster.ID = RAssign.JobID
WHERE (RAssign.RecruiterID = #RecruiterID) OR (#RecruiterID IS NULL)
What statement should I use for Update,Insert and for delete?
(Actually I'm new in coding and I just know to delete from single table but in above statement we are selecting to tables data one is "Jobmaster" and second is "RAssign".
Please help me if possible)
Its like I have multiselect option in Jqgrid in which i want to pass the selected rows value to the server and based on the value i will delete the rows. I dont want to have the ids to do my work. For the Single row i get the cell value and delete using the same. But for multi select its not the case. In getGridParam('selarrrow'); I use this to fetch the selected rows bu the values are not getting populated. Please help me out in doing the same
When i use the following code as i saw in some sample question i can fetch the value for the single row selection but when i select multiple rows then i pass it says like "FALSE" or "UNDEFINED". What can be the issue. var grid = jQuery('#list'); var sel_id = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selarrrow'); var myCellData = grid.jqGrid('getCell', sel_id, 'CountryId');
I got this done by using the for loop for getting the selected rows id
i did some thing like this and I am able to fetch the value. Thought this might help others too please check it
var myrow;
var id = jQuery("#List").jqGrid('getGridParam','selarrrow');
if(id.length)
{
for (var i=0;i<id.length;i++) // For Multiple Delete of row
{
myrow = jQuery("#List").jqGrid('getCell',id[i],'ticker');
}
}
