SQL Server guide

Update product


Updates product attributes by ID. Use UPDATE Products SET ... WHERE Id='...' with the product ID and the columns you want to change (display name, SKU, prices, tax code, trial settings, etc.).

Standard SQL query example

This is the base query accepted by the connector. To execute it in SQL Server, you have to pass it to the Data Gateway via a Linked Server. See how to accomplish this using the examples below.

UPDATE Products
SET 
  Display='Product ABCD'
, Sku='PRD-ABCD-01'
, Summary='Product Abcd **STD**'
, Description='This product can be used to call **API** supports markdown syntax'
, Action='**Action** supports markdown'
, TaxCode='DC010500'
, Image='https://zappysys.com/api/images/ZappySys-icon.png'
, FulfillmentInstructions='Thank you for shopping. **Activate** license by using our License App'
, Format='digital'
, PriceUSD='101.5'
, PriceEUR='102.5'

, TrialPriceUSD=10.5 

--, Renew=1 --not allowed for update : Only for create (enable subscription)
, Interval='year' --allowed values: adhoc, day, week, year, only needed if you are creating a subscription
, IntervalLength=1
, IntervalCount=0

, QuantityBehavior='allow' --allowed values: allow, lock, hide
, QuantityDefault=1
, Attributes = '{"mykey-1" : "some-value-1", "mykey-2" : "some-value-2"}'
--, Fulfillments='[ { fullfillment }, { fullfillment } ... ]' --JSON fragment 	
WHERE Id='abcd'

Using OPENQUERY in SQL Server

Using EXEC in SQL Server (handling larger SQL text)

The major drawback of OPENQUERY is its inability to incorporate variables within SQL statements. This often leads to the use of cumbersome dynamic SQL (with numerous ticks and escape characters).

Fortunately, starting with SQL 2005 and onwards, you can utilize the EXEC (your_sql) AT [LS_TO_FASTSPRING_IN_GATEWAY] syntax.

DECLARE @MyQuery NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'UPDATE Products
SET 
  Display=''Product ABCD''
, Sku=''PRD-ABCD-01''
, Summary=''Product Abcd **STD**''
, Description=''This product can be used to call **API** supports markdown syntax''
, Action=''**Action** supports markdown''
, TaxCode=''DC010500''
