Database Joiner

This Node Is Deprecated — This node is kept for backwards-compatibility, but the usage in new workflows is no longer recommended. The documentation below might contain more information.

This node is part of the deprecated database framework. For more information on how to migrate to the new database framework see the migration section of the database documentation.

This node joins two database tables. The join is based on the joining columns of both tables.

Options

Joiner settings

Join mode
If a row from the top table cannot be joined with a row from the bottom table (and vice versa) there are several options of handling this situation. After an Inner Join only matching rows will show up in the output table. A Left Outer Join will fill up the columns that come from the bottom table with missing values if no matching row exists in the bottom table. Likewise, a Right Outer Join will fill up the columns from the top table with missing values if no matching row in the top table exists. A Full Outer Join will fill up columns from both the top and bottom table with missing values if a row cannot be joined.
Joining columns
Select the columns from the top input ('left' table) and the bottom input ('right' table) that should be used for joining. You must make sure, that the type of selected columns matches.
Match all of the following: A row of the top input table and a row of the bottom input table match if they match in all specified column pairs.
Match any of the following: A row of the top input table and a row of the bottom input table match if they match in at least one specified column pairs.

Column selection

Column Selection (Top Input ('left' table) and Bottom Input ('right' table))

Include: This list contains the names of those columns in the input table to be included in the output table.
Exclude: This list contains the names of those columns in the input table to be excluded from the output table.
Filter: Use one of these fields to filter either the Include or Exclude list for certain column names or name substrings.
Buttons: Use these buttons to move columns between the Include and Exclude list. Single-arrow buttons will move all selected columns. Double-arrow buttons will move all columns (filtering is taken into account).
Always include all columns: If set, all columns are moved to the include list and if input changes all new columns will be in the include list, too.
Duplicate column handling
The option allows you to change the behavior if the include lists of both input tables contain columns with the same name.
Filter duplicates: Only the columns from the top input table will show up in the output table.
Don't execute: Don't allow to execute this node if there are duplicate column names in the include lists.
Append suffix: Append a suffix to the duplicate column names from the bottom input table so that they also show up in the output table.
Joining columns handling
The option allows filtering the top ('left' table) or bottom ('right' table) joining columns, i.e. the joining columns defined in the Joiner Settings tab will not show up in the output table.
