Query formatting

Instead of generating dynamic queries and sanitizing SQL yourself, you can use generic queries with variable binding. Formatted queries use :variable_name syntax as placeholders for variable values.

For example, your query may read INSERT INTO people (id, first, last) VALUES (:id, :firstname, :lastname) or SELECT firstname, lastname FROM people WHERE id = :id. If you know your named parameter's names ahead of time, you can provide a Named Parameter input with key id, firstname or lastname, and a value that references a previous step's result.

If you are dynamically generating SQL queries and do not know what parameters you will need ahead of time, create a key/value object in another step and reference them through the Named Parameters Object input. In the example above, you could generate an object of the form {id: 1, firstname: "John", lastname: "Doe"}.
