Set inventory level

Sets the absolute inventory level for an item at a location. Use Action='set' in the WITH clause and provide the Available quantity. If the location is not connected, it will be automatically connected.

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 InventoryLevels 
SET LocationId=25801916516
  ,Available=488 
WHERE InventoryItemId=43512276942948
WITH(
 Action='set' --or adjust or connect
, ContineOn404Error=0 
)

--OR--
/*
INSERT INTO InventoryLevels (InventoryItemId,LocationId,Available)
VALUES(43512276942948, 25801916516, 488)
--WITH( ContineOn404Error=0 )
*/

Using OPENQUERY in SQL Server

SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY([LS_TO_SHOPIFY_IN_GATEWAY], 'UPDATE InventoryLevels 
SET LocationId=25801916516
  ,Available=488 
WHERE InventoryItemId=43512276942948
WITH(
 Action=''set'' --or adjust or connect
, ContineOn404Error=0 
)

--OR--
/*
INSERT INTO InventoryLevels (InventoryItemId,LocationId,Available)
VALUES(43512276942948, 25801916516, 488)
--WITH( ContineOn404Error=0 )
*/')

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_SHOPIFY_IN_GATEWAY] syntax.

DECLARE @MyQuery NVARCHAR(MAX) = 'UPDATE InventoryLevels 
SET LocationId=25801916516
  ,Available=488 
WHERE InventoryItemId=43512276942948
WITH(
 Action=''set'' --or adjust or connect
, ContineOn404Error=0 
)

--OR--
/*
INSERT INTO InventoryLevels (InventoryItemId,LocationId,Available)
VALUES(43512276942948, 25801916516, 488)
--WITH( ContineOn404Error=0 )
*/'
EXEC (@MyQuery) AT [LS_TO_SHOPIFY_IN_GATEWAY]
