Amazing how you make it look simple, I have to watch this video more than once since there is.a lot of pieces to put together. Thank you.

[@learnssis]

Thank you so much for appreciating it.

[@vipinpanikar1]

perfect video man... Good job and thank you for doing this. This helps a lot. I was just looking for append to an existing file which is already created by another process. This gave me the needed info as I am new to SSIS.

[@learnssis]

Yeah Vipin this can be helpful for the beginners, glad it helped you.

[@KumarCode]

Wonderful situation and video tutorials 🙏🙏 Thanks Akil sir 🤚✋🙏🙏🙏

You are most welcome Kumar.

Glad it helped you.

Sir, Why haven't we have used Union for this case . Is it not possible for this case is it ?? Please tell

[@learnssis]

If you will use Union, then you will need to kind of hard code the queries in the SSIS package and I wanted to make it come from the sql server table. If you can achieve the same results with union then we can use the union as well, but I found this option more dynamic.

Hi sir,
I need to add or append a new row to the source file after taking in data flow task , like it already having values of 5 row where i need to introduce a specific value to the particular column and make the rest of the column as empty or null for the newly added row . How t do this ?

[@learnssis]

What I will do in this case is that I will read the data as it is from the source file and then in the same data flow, I will add an OLE DB source and will select the data for an additional row like whatever values I want and then will use a Union All transformation so that the data from the source file can be merged with the single row from OLE DB source and then we can insert the overall data to a destination.

[@sasisviewvlog]

@@learnssis no way to use oledb source instead of that anyway is there like using derived column and conditional split and union all

[@learnssis]

@@sasisviewvlog You would need to use some source to add a row, if you don't want to use OLE DB source then you can use Script Component source.

[@jarisalmanzar2724]

I had a similar issue but with missing a carriage return on the last line/row of the flat file. Any way to add carriage return to last line in SSIS?

[@learnssis]

You can add the carriage return like below
// Creating a file
string myfile = @"D:\Files\data.txt";
// Appending the given texts
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(myfile))
{
sw.WriteLine("
");
sw.Close();
}

[@jarisalmanzar2724]

@@learnssis wow! thanks...this is using the script component?

[@learnssis]

@@jarisalmanzar2724 Yes

[@learnssis]

You would need to also add a name space
using System.IO;

[@learnssis]

If you don't want to add the name space then you can use below code and can directly refer the name space
// Creating a file
string myfile = @"D:\Files\data.txt";
// Appending the given texts
using (System.IO.StreamWriter sw = System.IO.File.AppendText(myfile))
{
sw.WriteLine("
");
sw.Close();
}

Can you please explain how to append data on daily basis from SQL DB to an existing azure blob file?

[@learnssis]

I don't think we can directly append it to azure blob file, you can append it locally and then copy the whole file to azure blob.

[@rajithathiyagarajah7652]

@@learnssis Thank you for your response. My database is in azure. I want to append the data daily from azure SQL to blob using the SSIS. Is that possible 🤔

[@learnssis]

@@rajithathiyagarajah7652 Yeah first you can keep the file locally on a server and append data to that file on daily basis and then on daily basis upload the full file to azure blob storage using Azure blob upload task

Explain two disadvantages of SSIS

[@learnssis]

I copied below from one of the site but I have seen it by myself as well in real life projects
1. If multiple packages are available that need to run parallel then you have a trouble. SSIS memory usage is high and it conflicts with SQL.
2. In case of CPU allocation it also a problematic case when you have more packages to run parallel. You need to ensure that processer allocation between SQL and SSIS is done properly otherwise SQL have upper hand in it and due to that SSIS run very slow.
Some times the packages can fail specially on Data Flow due to low memory issues.

Hi Aquil...I have a requirement like need to load decimal values into CSV file using ssis. Eg: 123456789123466789.12345 is a source data currently it is truncating while loading into csv don't know what to do in this situation, need your help

[@learnssis]

What is your source ? There should not be any issue while writing it to CSV. It might be getting truncated while reading. Try to put a Data viewer in data flow and see if you are able to read it correctly from source ?

[@prajaakeeyaparty6578]

@@learnssis source is sql and data type is decimal(38,5)

[@prajaakeeyaparty6578]

When I am trying to prefix with some alphabets like A+cast(salary as varchar(40)) it is working but when I try to remove R and loading only numbers it is truncating

[@learnssis]

@@prajaakeeyaparty6578 What is the data type for sql where the values are stored. I tried creating a sql table with decimal type and when I inserted the above value 123456789123466789.12345 into in, then only 123456789123466789 value got inserted. Thus can you double check the data type you are using. Also try to type cast it to text.

[@prajaakeeyaparty6578]

@@learnssis yeah, whatever you have done same like that only nothing has changed but, why it is truncating that is the question here. I did type cast tried multiple ways but still no solution
