Specify attributes to identify objects

Connections to external data systems > External data systems supported out of the box > Working with Microsoft SQL Server > Specify attributes to identify objects

This expandable item provides the following options that allow you to specify the attributes with which you want to uniquely identify each object in the connected data system:

  • Available attributes. Lists the attributes that are available in the external data system. Use this list to select the attributes whose values you want to use to generate a unique identifier for each object in the external data system. You can filter attributes by typing in the text box at the top of this list. To select multiple attributes, hold down CTRL and click to select attributes in the list.
  • UniqueID attributes. Lists the attributes whose values are currently used to generate a unique identifier for each object in the external data system.
  • Add->. Moves the selected attributes from the Available attributes list to the UniqueID attributes list.
  • <-Remove. Moves the selected attributes from the UniqueID attributes list to the Available attributes list.
  • Constructed UniqueID. Displays a combination of the attributes whose values will make up a unique identifier for each object in the external data system.

Sample queries to modify SQL Server data

Connections to external data systems > External data systems supported out of the box > Sample queries to modify SQL Server data

This section provides some sample SQL queries illustrating how to modify SQL Server data during synchronization operations. In the sample queries, Id refers to an attribute (a column name in an SQL Server table) that uniquely identifies an object in your SQL database. These examples can be used only for configuring connections to Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
