CAUTION: do not follow these instructions on large tables! BE CAREFUL. |
Several views have been created to access data directly from the BSP database. These views can be quite computationally heavy, in which case they can feed a table through periodic ETL. The informatics team is always making updates to the BSP database, and we want to ensure that the views don't break as a result of DB changes.
...
- In SQL Navigator (or similar tool), log in to analytics at GAP_PROD.
- Ensure that the "Updateable" button is turned on (this allows you to edit the table).
- Run the command: SELECT * FROM BSP_ANALYTICS_VALIDATION table.
- Add a new row to the table.
- ID should be the next unused integer.
- INVOCATION: select * from analytics.<new view name> where rownum<10
- rownum<10 is a way to increase chances of hitting different data types during the invocation (instead of choosing just row 1)
- ENABLED: 1
- you can add a row and place a zero in ENABLED to avoid running the invocation, using the row as a temporary placeholder
- COMMENTS can be notes about placeholder, purpose of view, etc.
- KIND should generally be "query"
- Once the new row is added, click the COMMIT button.
