How do I Get SQL Text From ColdFusion Service - coldfusion

I've been given a project that uses AngularJS and ColdFusion as a Service. I understand Angular but I've never worked with ColdFusion before. Within the CFFunction Tag in a ColdFusionComponent I have some complex SQL that is being generated. In addition to the actual data being returned from the Service I would like to have the service return the actual text of the SQL executed. Can someone tell me how this can be done?

From the comments
In order to get the SQL statement that was executed you can use the result attribute of the <cfquery> tag. When you include that attribute then ColdFusion will return more information about the query including the SQL statement that was executed. See the docs here under the "usage" section (about midway down the page) for more information.
From the referenced documentation:
The cfquery tag also returns the following result variables in a structure. You can access these variables with a prefix of the name you specified in the result attribute. For example, if you assign the name myResult to the result attribute, you would retrieve the name of the SQL statement that was executed by accessing #myResult.sql#. The result attribute provides a way for functions or CFCs that are called from multiple pages, possibly at the same time, to avoid overwriting results of one call with another. The result variable of INSERT queries contains a key-value pair that is the automatically generated ID of the inserted row; this is available only for databases that support this feature. If more than one record was inserted, the value can be a list of IDs. The key name is database-specific.
Variable name Description
result_name.sql The SQL statement that was executed.
result_name.recordcount Number of records (rows) returned from the query.
result_name.cached True if the query was cached; False otherwise.
result_name.sqlparameters An ordered Array of cfqueryparam values.
result_name.columnList Comma-separated list of the query columns.
result_name.ExecutionTime Cumulative time required to process the query.
result_name.IDENTITYCOL SQL Server only. The ID of an inserted row.
result_name.ROWID Oracle only. The ID of an inserted row. This is not the
primary key of the row, although you can retrieve rows
based on this ID.
result_name.SYB_IDENTITY Sybase only. The ID of an inserted row.
result_name.SERIAL_COL Informix only. The ID of an inserted row.
result_name.GENERATED_KEY MySQL only. The ID of an inserted row. MySQL 3 does not
support this feature.
result_name.GENERATEDKEY Supports all databases. The ID of an inserted row.

Power Automate: how to catch which column was updated in Dataverse Connector

I'm starting from a "When a row is added, modified or deleted" connector, i'm passing in a switch connector that controls if the row is added, modified or deleted.
I'm then using the mail node to notify myself if a row is added, modified or deleted, in the case a row is added i have to include in the mail which fields of that row have been modified.
I can't find if this control is possible (check the row and compare it with the pre-modified version) and how to do it.
This is the embrional flow
As requested i'll try to be more detailed.
Please note that this is a POWER AUTOMATE FLOW so there is almost no code.
The CRUD connector takes 3 arguments:
-Change type (When an item is Added, Modified or Deleted)
-The table name (It's the Dataverse table name)
-The scope (Business Unit)
So i need to know if (for example in the output of this connector) there is a variable or other connector that contains which column changed and caused the trigger)
It's a question about the output or possible connectors related to the Dataverse CRUD node so there is NO CODE involved and no more "after-issue" flow specification needed to understand my request
A solution is to create a new field that keeps the current value of the original field and use trigger conditions to make your flow run only when those two fields don't match, meaning that the original field is updated and that its value has changed.

Textfield with autocomplete

I have several fields that contain exactly the same sql query! Is it possible to place the sql question centrally in APEX in the same way as list of values or as a function in oracle? I am using APEX 18.2
Here are two extended solutions
Pipelined SQL
https://smart4solutions.nl/blog/on-apex-lovs-and-how-to-define-their-queries/
Dynamic SQL
http://stevenfeuersteinonplsql.blogspot.com/2017/01/learn-to-hate-repetition-lesson-from.html
Call me dense, but I don't think I understand why you'd have multiple fields (presumably on the same form) whose source is the same SQL query.
Are you passing a parameter to the SQL to get a different value for each field?
If you are passing a parameter to the SQL query, why not create a database view to hold the query, then pass the parameter to the view. That way, if you need to change it, it's in one place.
If they really are all the same value from the same query, how about using the SQL for one field/page_item, then make the source for the others be the first page item?
I would create a hidden item with the query in the source as text and use &HIDDEN_ITEM_NAME. to reference its value in the source of any item I was trying to display the query.
Finally isolved it with a function and use the type PL/SQL Function Body returning SQL Query in APEX, then i have all in one place. I created a function in SQL developer that returns a SQL query.

Reading Sharepoint List Calculated field from PowerShell

I am trying to pull data from a SharePoint list. The field is a calculated column that takes a yes or no answer and changes the words to archived and non-archived.
I can see the data being formatted correctly in the calculated column in IE but when I try to pull the data it shows up as nothing when I check the variable data.
$site = get-spsite https://extranet./sites/site
$web = get-spweb -Identity https://extranet/sites/site
$list=$web.getlist("https://extranet/sites/site/lists/List");
$View = $list.Views["LISTVIEW"]
$listitems = $list.Getitems($view)
foreach ($listitem in $listitems) {
I have tried this also but get an indexing a null variable error.
$mailboxdb = $listitem.Fields["mailboxdb"] -as [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFieldCalculated];
$mailboxdb.GetFieldValueAsText($listitem["mailboxdb"]);
I see this also in the $listitems output. ows_MailboxDb='string;#Archived'
But when I check $mailboxdb its empty.
Found this but I don't know what it means by stored results.
In Powershell, although you can reference any field in the list in your script, you can only compare retrieve values from "static" fields - that is, you cannot use calculation fields. PowerShell will not complain - but you will not get results in your script. This is because the .Net library for Sharepoint will not do the field calculation for you - that only happens inside the Sharepoint UI itself.
If you need to have access to a "calculated" field, you actually need to have two fields - the calculated field (usually hidden) and a "stored result" field, which must be updated from the calculated value in the last step of the "Update" workflow. Then you can use the "stored value" field in PowerShell - and also, incidentally, in View calculations in Sharepoint.
You basically have two options here. You can have Powershell do the calculation for you, which is probably the simpler of the two options given the basic nature of your calculation.
The second option, as mentioned at the end of your post is to create a new field which can store the result of the calculation. In your case, you could call it status. Then you would create a workflow that runs whenever a list item is updated or created that stores the results of the calculated field in the results field. This seems redundant to me if you have this field for no other reason than to use the value of the calculated field in a PowerShell script.

QuerySetCell on a column with a numeric name in ColdFusion

I'm attempting the use QuerySetCell to change value of a specific column in a query object, and have been receiving this error:
Column names must be valid variable names. They must start with a letter and can only include letters, numbers, and underscores.
The reason for this error, and the complication here, is that the columns I am trying to update have some integers as names, taken from a separate record's key/ID. For example, the query may contain three columns with names: "6638, 6639, 6640".
Now, I understand why this error is occurring (though not necessarily why CF has this limitation), however cannot come up with a work around. The further complications are that I cannot make any changes as to how the initial query set's column names, and need to preserve the column names and their order for when I convert the query to a JSON string and update my results table using the JSONified query.
Has anyone encountered this issue before, and if so how were you able to work around it, or were you forced to change how the columns were named in your initial query?
Using CF8 and have the ability to edit the JSONified query after it is returned from my Ajax handler if that makes a difference.
You can use bracket notation to set the values in a query (at least you can in CF9 - I do not have CF8 installed to test).
The sytax is pretty simple:
<cfset queryName[columnName][row] = "some new value" />
From your example, you could use this:
<cfset myQuery["6638"][1] = "moo" />
This will set the value of the '6638' column in the first row to 'moo'. If you have multiple rows being returned, you would need to set each row.

How can i query to get the multiple values in SimpleDB (AWS)

jpg
In that Picture i have colored one part. i have attribute called "deviceModel". It contains more than one value.. i want to take using query from my domain which ItemName() contains deviceModel attribute values more than one value.
Thanks,
Senthil Raja
There is no direct approach to get what you are asking.. You need to manipulate by writing your own piece of code. By running SELECT query you will get the item Attribute-value pair. So here you need to traverse each each itemName() and count values of your desire attribute.
I think what you are refering to is called MultiValued Attributes. When you put a value in the attribute - if you don't replace the existing attribute value the values will multiply, giving you an array of items connected to the value of that attribute name.
How you create them will depend on the sdk/language you are using for your REST calls, however look for the Replace=true/false when you set the attribute's value.
Here is the documentation page on retrieving them: http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonSimpleDB/latest/DeveloperGuide/ (look under Using Amazon SimpleDB -> Using Select to Create Amazon SimpleDB Queries -> Queries on Attributes with Multiple Values)
