Examples

SSIS

Use Cosmos DB Connector in API Source or in API Destination SSIS Data Flow components to read or write data.

API Source

API Source - Cosmos DB
Connect to your Azure Cosmos DB databases to read, query, create, update, and delete documents and more!
Cosmos DB
Upsert a document in the container
Optional Parameters
Upsert true
SSIS API Source - Read from table or endpoint

API Destination

This Endpoint belongs to the [Dynamic Table] table, therefore it is better to use it, instead of accessing the endpoint directly. Use this table and table-operation pair to upsert a document in the container:

API Destination - Cosmos DB
Connect to your Azure Cosmos DB databases to read, query, create, update, and delete documents and more!
Cosmos DB
[Dynamic Table]
Upsert
Optional Parameters
Upsert true
SSIS API Destination - Access table operation

ODBC application

Use these SQL queries in your ODBC application data source:

Upsert a document (Insert or Update if exists) - Use UPSERT Keyword rather than WITH option

Upsert a document (Update if id exists else create new one). This one uses UPSERT KEY word slight simpler syntax becuase you dont need WITH clause like INSERT... WITH(UPSERT='true') example. 

UPSERT INTO TestContainer (PartitionKey, Document)
VALUES(
'["user2"]', --partition key value must match its attribute from document else it will throw error. In this example container PartitionKey is /id so we used its value. For multiple key use JSON array ["val1","val2"]
'{
  "id": "user2",
  "name": "John Doe",
  "email": "jdoe@contoso.com",
  "phone": ["12345"],
  "level": "platinum"
}')

upsert_document endpoint belongs to [Dynamic Table] table(s), and can therefore be used via those table(s).

SQL Server

Use these SQL queries in SQL Server after you create a data source in Data Gateway:

Upsert a document (Insert or Update if exists) - Use UPSERT Keyword rather than WITH option

Upsert a document (Update if id exists else create new one). This one uses UPSERT KEY word slight simpler syntax becuase you dont need WITH clause like INSERT... WITH(UPSERT='true') example. 

DECLARE @MyQuery NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'UPSERT INTO TestContainer (PartitionKey, Document)
VALUES(
''["user2"]'', --partition key value must match its attribute from document else it will throw error. In this example container PartitionKey is /id so we used its value. For multiple key use JSON array ["val1","val2"]
''{
  "id": "user2",
  "name": "John Doe",
  "email": "jdoe@contoso.com",
  "phone": ["12345"],
  "level": "platinum"
}'')';

EXEC (@MyQuery) AT [LS_TO_COSMOS_DB_IN_GATEWAY];

upsert_document endpoint belongs to [Dynamic Table] table(s), and can therefore be used via those table(s).
