Use an existing connection |
Select this check box and in the Component List click the relevant connection component to reuse the connection details you already defined. NoteWhen a Job contains the parent Job and the child Job, if you need to share an existing connection between the two levels, for example, to share the connection created by the parent Job with the child Job, you have to:
For an example about how to share a database connection across Job levels, see Talend Studio User Guide. | |

Schema and Edit Schema |
A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields (columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. The schema is either Built-In or stored remotely in the Repository. Since version 5.6, both the Built-In mode and the Repository mode are available in any of the Talend solutions. |
|
|
Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component only. Related topic: see Talend Studio User Guide. |
|
|
Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. Related topic: see Talend Studio User Guide. When the schema to be reused has default values that are integers or functions, ensure that these default values are not enclosed within quotation marks. If they are, you must remove the quotation marks manually. For more details, see the article Verifying default values in a retrieved schema on |
Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

Advanced settings |
tStatCatcher Statistics |
Select this check box to gather the job processing metadata at a Job level as well as at each component level. |
|

|
Create projection |
Select this check box to create a projection. (Vertica) |
Global Variables |
QUERY: the query statement being processed. This is a Flow variable and it returns a string. ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This variable functions only if the Die on error check box is cleared, if the component has this check box. A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable functions after the execution of the component. To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl + Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it. For further information about variables, see Talend Studio User Guide. | |
Usage |
This component offers the flexibility of the database query and covers all possible SQL queries. More scenarios are available for specific database Input components. | |
