SQL statements through web based decelopment approach

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using the web based development workbench. I wish to create, insert and select tables using SQL statements only and not through HDBD language. Please let me know how it is possible. as of now, i see a tutorial which makes use of the HDBD language constructs only.

Thanks,

Murali.

Hi Murali,

I assume you are using a HANA Trial instance on HANA Cloud Platform. Also I assume that you already managed the web-base development workbench there.

If you are in the workbench, you can open the catalog view like this (Check for the "plus" symbol in the upper left corner):

In the catalog view, then check the "SQL" Button, again in the upper left corner:

You now have a shell to execute SQL directly.

Please consider: If you are using a HANA Trial instance, certain queries might not work because of missing permissions.

Best,

Thomas.
