Introduction

What are JDBC Form Binders?

JDBC Form Binder allows you to use custom SQL statements to retrieve and load records into your form fields. Similarly, you can write SQL statements to save the records in your form field into a database table.

...

  • Use of form element workflow variables. JDBC form binders will not populate or update the workflow variables.
  • Use of file and image attachment field elements. JDBC form binders will not handle the file retrieval or file transfer into Joget file storage.

SQL SELECT Query
Code Block
languagesql
linenumberstrue
SELECT * FROM app_fd_table WHERE  id = '#requestParam.id#'

Note: If you use JDBC in a form grid for load/save, be advised the SQL syntax is different from the above. Kindly download and view the sample app for JDBC in a form grid at the bottom of this page.

SQL INSERT Query

Use syntax like curly brackets {field_id} in query to inject submitted form data.

Code Block
languagesql
linenumberstrue
INSERT app_fd_table 
       (id, 
        c_name, 
        c_emailaddress, 
        c_contacttel) 
VALUES ({id}, 
        {name}, 
        {emailAddress}, 
        {contactTel}) 

Note: Be advised JDBC load/save binders cannot be used if your form or form grid has file or image attachment field elements. You will need to use the default Multirow Form Binder in this circumstance.

SQL UPDATE Query

Use syntax like curly brackets {field_id} in query to inject submitted form data.

Code Block
languagesql
linenumberstrue
UPDATE app_fd_table 
SET    id = {id}, 
       c_name = {name}, 
       c_emailaddress = {emailAddress}, 
       c_contacttel = {contactTel} 
WHERE  id = {id} 
SQL DELETE Query

Used in deleting form data records in Datalist/Grid element. Use syntax like curly brackets {id} in query to inject form data primary key

Code Block
languagesql
linenumberstrue
DELETE FROM app_fd_table 
WHERE  id = {id}
