Examples | DATASET_PUBLISH Table Operator | Teradata Vantage - Example: Composing a Table to a DATASET Data Type - Advanced SQL Engine - Teradata Database

This example shows how to compose an entire table to a DATASET data type.

CREATE TABLE employeeTable(
	empID INTEGER,
	empName VARCHAR(100),
	empDept VARCHAR(100));
INSERT INTO employeeTable(1,'George Smith','Accounting'); 
INSERT INTO employeeTable(2,'Pauline Kramer','HR');
INSERT INTO employeeTable(3,'Steven Mazzo','Engineering');


SELECT * FROM DATASET_PUBLISH
(
	ON (SELECT empName, empDept FROM employeeTable)
	 
) AS avroFiles;

data

To compose an entire table to a DATASET data type, with the storage format CSV:

CREATE TABLE employeeTable(
	empID INTEGER,
	empName VARCHAR(100),
	empDept VARCHAR(100));
INSERT INTO employeeTable(1,'George Smith','Accounting'); 
INSERT INTO employeeTable(2,'Pauline Kramer','HR');
INSERT INTO employeeTable(3,'Steven Mazzo','Engineering');


SELECT * FROM DATASET_PUBLISH
(
	ON (SELECT empName, empDept FROM employeeTable)
RETURNS (data DATASET STORAGE FORMAT CSV)

) AS csvFiles;

To convert the output to JSON, run the following examples using 'SELECT data.toJSON()' instead of 'SELECT *'.
