I am generating an SQL query and I need to get the data from a JSON stored on a field of my table. It goes something like this
SELECT creation.INSERT_DATE as applicationDateTime,
REPLACE(json_extract(creation.FACILITY_DATA, '$.loanType'), '"', '') AS loanType,
lookup_detail.DETAIL_DESCRIPTION AS financingType
FROM creation
LEFT JOIN lookup_detail ON lookup_detail.DETAIL_CODE = loanType
So basically I am trying to get put a connection with tables creation and lookup_detail through field FACILITY_DATA which has JSON data and alias of loanType to reference against DETAIL_CODE field. However, I get this error
code:"ER_BAD_FIELD_ERROR"
errno:1054
sqlMessage:"Unknown column 'loanType' in 'on clause'"
sqlState:"42S22"
Is there anything I could do to work on this? I tried to search what are the valid reference to ON clause of JOIN operation, but I only get the typical ways.
Either repeat the expression in the ON clause, or join with a subquery.
SELECT c.applicationDateTime, c.loanType, l.financingType
FROM (
SELECT INSERT_DATE as applicationDateTime,
REPLACE(json_extract(creation.FACILITY_DATA, '$.loanType'), '"', '') AS loanType
FROM creation
) AS c
JOIN lookup_detail AS l ON l.DETAIL_CODE = c.loanType
Also, you probably should be using JSON_UNQUOTE() rather than REPLACE(). Or you can use the ->> operator, which extracts and unquotes in one step.

I have a query where i have "TEST"."TABLE" LEFT JOINED to PUBLIC."SchemaKey". Now in my final select statement i have a case statement where i check if c."Type" = 'FOREIGN' then i want to grab a value from another table but the table name value i am using in that select statement is coming from the left joined table column value. I've tried multiple ways to get to work but i keep getting an error, although if i hard code the table name it seems to work. i need the table name to come from c."FullParentTableName". Is what i am trying to achieve possible in snowflake and is there a way to make this work ? any help would be appreciated !
SELECT
c."ParentColumn",
c."FullParentTableName",
a."new_value",
a."column_name"
CASE WHEN c."Type" = 'FOREIGN' THEN (SELECT "Name" FROM TABLE(c."FullParentTableName") WHERE "Id" = 'SOME_ID') ELSE null END "TestColumn" -- Need assistance on this line...
FROM "TEST"."TABLE" a
LEFT JOIN (
select s."Type", s."ParentSchema", s."ParentTable", s."ParentColumn", concat(s."ParentSchema",'.','"',s."ParentTable",'"') "FullParentTableName",s."ChildSchema", s."ChildTable", trim(s."ChildColumn",'"') "ChildColumn"
from PUBLIC."SchemaKey" as s
where s."Type" = 'FOREIGN'
and s."ChildTable" = 'SOMETABLENAME'
and "ChildSchema" = 'SOMESCHEMANAME'
) c
on a."column_name" = c."ChildColumn"
Thanks !
In Snowflake you cannot dynamically use the partial results as tables.
You can use a single bound value via identifier to bind a value to table name
But you could write a Snowflake Scripting but it would need to explicitly join the N tables. Thus if you N is fixed, you should just join those.
I am trying to call specific information from my SQL table using the following statement
SELECT `PROP_STREET`, `PROP_PRICE`, `PROP_STATUS`, `AGT_FNAME`, `AGT_LNAME`
FROM `property`, `agent`
WHERE property.PROP_AGENT = agent.AGT_FNAME && property.PROP_STATUS = ("SOLD" , "Available for sale", "Under Contract");
As you can see, I am trying to call everything that is listed as SOLD, Available for sale and Under Contract. While I try to do this, I am getting an error operand should contain 1 coulmn this only happens when I am trying to call more than 1 PROP_STATUS
This is proper syntax for what you're trying to do:
select prop_street, prop_price, prop_status, agt_fname, agt_lname
from property p
join agent a
on p.prop_agent = a.agt_fname
where p.prop_status in ('SOLD', 'Available for sale', 'Under Contract')
Some notes:
Join conditions belong in the JOIN clause, not the WHERE clause. Although there is no functional difference, it is good practice.
&& does mean "AND" in other languages, but not SQL. Have to use "and"
Use single quotes for literals ('), not double quotes (")
Use IN, not =, when specifying more than one literal.
Avoid using old JOIN syntax(where clause) and use the newer join (with ON Clause).
SELECT `PROP_STREET`, `PROP_PRICE`, `PROP_STATUS`, `AGT_FNAME`, `AGT_LNAME`
FROM `property` INNER JOIN `agent`
ON property.PROP_AGENT = agent.AGT_FNAME
WHERE property.PROP_STATUS IN ('SOLD' , 'Available for sale', 'Under Contract');
Trying to convert below query into SQL, query works fine on MySQL. Problem seems to be the GROUP BY area. Even when I use just 1 GROUP BY field I get same error. Using query in InformaticaCloud.

Your entire query isn't going to work. The group by statement contains a single expression, the summation of a bunch of fields. The select statement contains zillions of columns without aggregates. Perhaps you intend for something like this:
select resp_ins, resp_payor_grouping, carrier_code, state, Collector_Name,
sum(Cast(Resp_Ins_Open_dol AS decimal(10,2))) as baltotal
from Config_21Cent
WHERE resp_ind = 'Insurance'
GROUP BY resp_ins, resp_payor_grouping, carrier_code, state, Collector_Name;
THis will work in both databases.
The columns in SELECT statement must be a subset (not proper subset but subset) of columns in 'GROUP BY' statement. There is no such restriction on aggregates in SELECT statement though. There could be any number of aggregates; aggregates even on columns not in GROUP BY statement can be included.
I'm new to joins and I'm sure this is ridiculously simple. If I remove one join in the query the remainder of the query works regardless of which join I remove. But as shown it gives the error saying the column doesn't exist. Any pointers?
select
loc_carr.address1 as carr_addr1,
loc_cust.address1 as cust_addr1
from db_name.carrier, db_name.customer
join db_name.location as loc_carr on vats.carrier.location_id=loc_carr.location_id
join db_name.location as loc_cust on vats.customer.location_id=loc_cust.location_id
thanks
I'll take a guess that there is a column named something like carrier_id that can be used to join the carrier and customer tables. Given that assumption, try this:
select
loc_carr.address1 as carr_addr1
, loc_cust.address1 as cust_addr1
from vats.carrier as a
join vats.customer as b
on b.carrier_id=a.carrier_id
join vats.location as loc_carr
on loc_carr.location_id=a.location_id
join vats.location as loc_cust
on loc_cust.location_id=b.location_id
Notice the use of aliases for the table references to make things easier to read. Also note how I'm using explicit SQL join syntax (instead of listing tables separated by commas).
#Bob Duell has the solution for your problem. To understand better why this error is produced, notice that in the FROM clause, you "join" tables using both explicit JOIN syntax and the implicit joins with comma: , which is (almost) equivalent to a CROSS JOIN. The precedence however of JOIN is stronger than the comma , operator. So, that part is parsed like this:
FROM
( db_name.carrier )
,
( ( db_name.customer
JOIN db_name.location AS loc_carr
ON carrier.location_id = loc_carr.location_id -- this line
) -- gives the error
JOIN join db_name.location AS loc_cust
ON customer.location_id = loc_cust.location_id
)
In the mentioned line above, the vats.carrier.location_id throws the error, as there is no carrier table in that scope (inside that parenthesis).
I need to get a title from table 2, table 2 has title and id column.
Table 1 has some data and three of these columns concatenated together makeup the id that can be found in table 1.
I used CONCAT_WS() function and gave this column an alias name and need to use the Alias for the on argument(At least this is what I understood I needed to do)
I thought this could be a simple left join, yet it is not working for me.
This is my query
SELECT
table_openers.mail,
table_openers.f_name,
table_openers.l_name,
table_openers.Quality,
CONCAT_WS('-',
table_openers.esp,
table_openers.acc,
table_openers.group) as 't1aid',
table_groups.aid,
table_groups.group_name
FROM
lance_mailstats.table_openers
LEFT JOIN
lance_mailstats.table_groups ON table_groups.aid = t1aid;
I get results for mail, f_name, l_name, Quality and t1aid, but the aid and group_name columns of the second table return null.
I feel like you can't use an alias in the ON clause.
Try doing
LEFT JOIN
lance_mailstats.table_groups ON table_groups.aid = CONCAT_WS('-',
table_openers.esp,
table_openers.acc,
table_openers.group);
"You can use the alias in GROUP BY, ORDER BY, or HAVING clauses to refer to the column" (from dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/problems-with-alias.html).
And "The conditional_expr used with ON is any conditional expression of the form that can be used in a WHERE clause" (from dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/join.html).
So as a logical inference you're not allowed to use aliases in ON clauses.
try to use a subquery..
it goes like this.........
ex.
SELECT
tbl1.mail, tbl1.f_name, tbl1.l_name,tbl1.Quality, tbl1.t1aid,table_groups.aid,
table_groups.group_name
FROM
(SELECT
table_openers.mail,
table_openers.f_name,
table_openers.l_name,
table_openers.Quality,
CONCAT_WS('-',
table_openers.esp,
table_openers.acc,
table_openers.group) as 't1aid',
FROM
lance_mailstats.table_openers )tbl1
LEFT JOIN
lance_mailstats.table_groups ON table_groups.aid = tbl1.t1aid;
