ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column on Nifi PutDatabaseRecord - oracle

Question

I try to update some DB column in Oracle Database with Nifi.
I have such part of the circuit:
I have problem with last PutDatabaserecord:

This is configuration of the problematic node:
This is a schema of RecordReader:
{
"name": "load_date",
"type": "record",
"namespace": "maxi",
"fields": [
{
"name": "doc_id",
"type": "int"
},
{
"name": "line_id",
"type": "int"
},
{
"name": "load_date",
"type": "string"
}
]
}
And this is a sample of the json data coming to the node:
[{"doc_id":1795576199,"line_id":689617855,"load_date":"2021-34-12"}]
UPDATE
OK, I set PutDatabaseRecord to Debug mode, evaluated sigle record? for catch full debug info from the processor. This is the head of the log exactly as the processor starts to handle the record:

(I added one another processor there - SplitJson)
And, I added some table in my own scheme on the DB.
This is the DDL:
CREATE TABLE psheom.ml_task (
doc_id number,
line_id number,
load_date DATE,
CONSTRAINT pk_ml_task PRIMARY KEY(doc_id, line_id)
)
And this is result of DESCRIBE psheom.ml_task:
Name Null? Type
--------- -------- ------
DOC_ID NOT NULL NUMBER
LINE_ID NOT NULL NUMBER
LOAD_DATE DATE
UPDATE
I try to make ExecuteSql processor as #pmdba suggests, but I get some error. Here is configuration:
And here is error:

UPDATE
I set Translate Field Names to false, but it is same result.

Answer 1

OK, so it is quite a "few things" that we need to do for UPDATE some record in Oracle.
First of all DO NOT use DBeaver! It is very glitchy! Use just SQLDeveloper for working with Oracle.
Second, create session with same user configured for connection pool in Nifi side, and run DESCRIBE for table you need to update:
DESCRIBE GOODS.ML_TASK
Be sure, it succeeds!
Third, we need upper case all entity names, and it is good to set Translate Field Names to false, thus it removes underscores, ie.: doc_id -> docid.
Firth, you need json with upper case field names in the processor's input:
[
{"DOC_ID":1799041400,"LINE_ID":694098344,"LOAD_DATE":"14-Jul-21"},
{"DOC_ID":1802019315,"LINE_ID":697885808,"LOAD_DATE":"14-Jul-21"}
]
If you have lower case field in some place, use UpdateAttribute processor with reader and writer where reader will upper case the fields:
The schema defined for PutDatabaseRecord reader MUST be upper cased:
{
"name": "load_date",
"type": "record",
"namespace": "maxi",
"fields": [
{
"name": "DOC_ID",
"type": "int"
},
{
"name": "LINE_ID",
"type": "int"
},
{
"name": "LOAD_DATE",
"type": "string"
}
]
}
So here you have:
UpdateRecord:
IncomingJsonReader for accept record in lower case, and make uppercase
IncomingJsonWriter
PutDatanaseRecord
OutgoingJsonReader
All of them use THE SAME JSON SCHEMA
Fifth, as you seen, use string type for date.
You can put date as number of milliseconds sine THE DATE, but, despite the fact it worked in my own schema, it didn't worked in the production schema. So you need to query NLS_DATE_FORMAT.
Put the appropriate query in ExecuteSQL processor:
select * from nls_session_parameters where parameter = 'NLS_DATE_FORMAT'
You will have the format in the result queue:
[{"PARAMETER": "NLS_DATE_FORMAT", "VALUE": "DD-MON-RR"}]
Use it for make date formatted in the appropriate way.
Sixth, as we see, put the right date format in the "Expression Language" expression in the right place, for instance, in UpdateRecord in my case:
Seventh, make sure you have just single or few records passing threw the queues, for be able to monitor the log. Also put the PutDatabaseRecord in DEBUG mode:
In such a way, it will inform you, whether it succeed to fetch the schema from DB.
So... I wish you happy Oracle's table update!
