如何使用Uipath数据库活动将数据表插入SQL Server数据库？

Question

I have a datatable DT with 25 columns. I want to insert that data from DT into a SQL Server table SQDT with the same columns. I'm using an INSERT query for now.

Is there a better way to approach this problem instead of using INSERT on each record? Can I bulk insert into the database using a stored procedure or some other efficient way? It takes a lot of time to insert as DT has 130000 tuples.

Answer 1

Yes, there is a better way. You need to create Type in SQL server with the same definition as your Datatable.

Here you can User-Defined TableType

CREATE TYPE [dbo].[MyTable] AS TABLE(
    [Id] int NOT NULL,
)

Define Parameter in SP

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertTable]
    @myTable MyTable readonly
AS
BEGIN
    insert into [dbo].Records select * from @myTable 
END

and send your DataTable as a parameter

You can use SqlBulkCopy in-build for C#. SqlBulk Copy can be used for bulk inserts with batches which worked efficiently for me https://programmingwithmosh.com/net/using-sqlbulkcopy-for-fast-inserts/
