I am using an sql script to parse a json into a snowflake table using dbt.
One of the cols contain this datetime value: '2022-02-09T20:28:59+0000'.
What's the correct way to define ISO datetime's data type in Snowflake?
I tried date, timestamp and TIMESTAMP_NTZ like this in my dbt sql script:
JSON_DATA:",my_date"::TIMESTAMP_NTZ AS MY_DATE
but clearly, these aren't the correct one because later on when I test it in snowflake with select * , I get this error:
SQL Error [100040] [22007]: Date '2022-02-09T20:28:59+0000' is not recognized
or
SQL Error [100035] [22007]: Timestamp '2022-02-13T03:32:55+0100' is not recognized
so I need to know which Snowflake time/date data type suits the best for this one
EDIT:
This is what I am trying now.
SELECT
JSON_DATA:"date_transmission" AS DATE_TRANSMISSION
, TO_TIMESTAMP(DATE_TRANSMISSION:text, 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MI:SS.FFTZH:TZM') AS DATE_TRANSMISSION_TS_UTC
, JSON_DATA:"authorizerClientId"::text AS AUTHORIZER_CLIENT_ID
, JSON_DATA:"apiPath"::text API_PATH
, MASTERCLIENT_ID
, META_FILENAME
, META_LOAD_TS_UTC
, META_FILE_TS_UTC
FROM {{ source('INGEST_DATA', 'TABLENAME') }}
I get this error:
000939 (22023): SQL compilation error: error line 6 at position 4
10:21:46 too many arguments for function [TO_TIMESTAMP(GET(DATE_TRANSMISSION, 'text'), 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MI:SS.FFTZH:TZM')] expected 1, g
However, if I comment out the the first 2 lines(related to timpstamp types), the other two work perfectly fine. What's the correct syntax of parsing json with TO_TIMESTAMP?
Not that JSON_DATA:"apiPath"::text API_PATH gives the correct value for it in my snowflake tables.
Did some testing and it seems you have 2 options.
You can either get rid of the +0000 at the end: left(column_date, len(column_date)-5)
or try_to_timestamp with format
try_to_timestamp('2022-02-09T20:28:59+0000','YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SS+TZHTZM')
TZH and TZM are TimeZone Offset Hours and Minutes
So there are 2 main points here.
when getting data from JSON to pass to any of the timestamp functions that want a ::TEXT object, but the values to get from JSON are still ::VARIANT so they need to be cast. This is the cause of the error you quote
(22023): SQL compilation error: error line 6 at position 4
10:21:46 too many arguments for function [TO_TIMESTAMP(GET(DATE_TRANSMISSION, 'text'), 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MI:SS.FFTZH:TZM')] expected 1, g
also your SQL is wrong there it should have been
TO_TIMESTAMP(DATE_TRANSMISSION::text,
How you handle the timezone format.As other have noted you (as I did in your last question) do you want to ignore the timezone values or read them. I forgot about the TZHTZM formatting. Given you have timezone data, you should use the TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ`TRY_TO_TIMESTAMP_TZto make sure the time zone data is keep, given you second example shows+0100`
putting those together (assuming you didn't want an extra date_transmission as a variant in you data) :
SELECT
TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ(JSON_DATA:"date_transmission"::text, 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MI:SS+TZHTZM') AS DATE_TRANSMISSION_TS_UTC
, JSON_DATA:"authorizerClientId"::text AS AUTHORIZER_CLIENT_ID
, JSON_DATA:"apiPath"::text AS API_PATH
, MASTERCLIENT_ID
, META_FILENAME
, META_LOAD_TS_UTC
, META_FILE_TS_UTC
FROM {{ source('INGEST_DATA', 'TABLENAME') }}
You should use timestamp (not date which does not store the time information), but probably the format you are using is not autodetected. You can specify the input format as YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SSTZHTZM as shown here. The autodetected one has a : between the TZHTZM.
I have a table with many columns stored as text. These columns have information which i am planning to cast and copy the data into a fresh table with the same column names but with correct data types ( float8 )
I tested the SELECT with CAST operator "::" and it works fine. All the columns are being converted as you can see in the picture
However , when I uncomment the INSERT statement ( above it ) to start writing in the target table, it throws an error. The target table has identical column names and only float8 column types.
The expression from the source table is indeed of type text but i am using the cast operator so why does it not work like before when only running the SELECT statement?

It says "column is of type double but expression is of type text" so what's really happening is that it's trying to insert one of the expressions where you cast to ::text into a column that is of type double.
If the problem was converting from text to double, you'd get a different message. Besides, the SELECT worked fine, which means it didn't encounter any text data that it couldn't convert to double.
Since you don't specify the target table columns in your INSERT, and you have so many of them, most likely you missed a column or got the order wrong.
Honestly if the table has 270 columns and they have the same name in the source and destination tables, you should really generate the query using something like python from a list of columns, that will be faster than proofreading the 270 lines...
I am trying to fetch results from my sqlite database by providing a date range.
I have been able to fetch results by providing 3 filters
1. Name (textfield1)
2. From (date)(textfield2)
3. To (date)(textfield3)
I am inserting these field values taken from form into a table temp using following code
Statement statement6 = db.createStatement("INSERT INTO Temp(date,amount_bill,narration) select date,amount,narration from Bills where name=\'"+TextField1.getText()+"\' AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) <= substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',1,2) AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) >= substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',1,2) ");
statement6.prepare();
statement6.execute();
statement6.close();
Now if i enter the following input in my form for the above filters
1.Ricky
2.01/02/2012
3.28/02/2012
It fetches date between these date ranges perfectly.
But now i want to insert values that are below and above these 2 date ranges provided.
I have tried using this code.But it doesnt show up any result.I simply cant figure where the error is
The below code is to find entries having date lesser than 01/02/2012 and greater than 28/02/2012.
Statement statementVII = db.createStatement("INSERT INTO Temp5(date,amount_rec,narration) select date,amount,narration from Bills where name=\'"+TextField1.getText()+"\' AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) < substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField2.getText()+"\',1,2) AND substr(date,7)||substr(date,4,2)||substr(date,1,2) > substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',7)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',4,2)||substr (\'"+TextField3.getText()+"\',1,2)");
statementVII.prepare();
statementVII.execute();
statementVII.close();
Anyone sound on this,please guide.Thanks.
you need to use an Or clause together with brackets:
WHERE name='....' AND (yourDateField<yourLowerDate OR yourDateField>yourHigherDate)
