)Microsoft SQL Server OPENQUERY Query - Gmail Example
Following examples shows how to Get all messages with search condition(s) in Microsoft SQL Server using OPENQUERY Query. This command facilitates the execution of pass-through queries on remote servers. Below example is demonstrating the usage of OPENQUERY.
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY([LS_TO_GMAIL_IN_GATEWAY],

Microsoft SQL Server EXEC Query - Gmail Example (Handling larger SQL text)
The major drawback of OPENQUERY is its inability to incorporate variables within SQL statements, which often leads to the use of cumbersome dynamic SQL (with numerous ticks and escape characters).
Fortunately, there is a solution. Starting with SQL 2005 and onwards, you can utilize the EXEC (your_sql) AT [LS_TO_GMAIL_IN_GATEWAY] syntax. Following examples shows how to Get all messages with search condition(s) in Microsoft SQL Server using EXEC Query.
DECLARE @MyQuery NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'SELECT *

--Use WITH clause --OR-- Key column(s) in WHERE clause. If you use Id in Where clause then Search parameter is ignored
--WHERE [Id] = ''18fb7747b0136726''

Search=''after:<<yearstart+1d|~|yyyy/MM/dd,FUN_TO_DATE>> before:<<today-1d|~|yyyy/MM/dd,FUN_TO_DATE>>'' --search for mail sent between some dates (after year start plus one day and before yesterday (i.e. today-1d))
