Database Pivot

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 creates a SQL statement for pivoting to be executed on the input database using a selected number of columns for grouping and pivoting. The group columns will result into unique rows, whereby the pivot values turned into columns for each set of column combinations together with each aggregation method.

To change the aggregation method of more than one column select all columns to change, open the context menu with a right mouse click and select the aggregation method to use.

A detailed description of the available aggregation methods can be found on the 'Description' tab in the node dialog.

Manual Aggregation

Aggregation methods
Select one or more columns for aggregation from the available columns list. Change the aggregation method in the Aggregation column of the table. You can add the same column multiple times. In order to change the aggregation method of more than one column select all columns to change, open the context menu with a right mouse click and select the aggregation method to use. The parameter column shows an "Edit" button for all aggregation operators that require additional information. Clicking on the "Edit" button opens the parameter dialog which allows changing the operator specific settings.

Advanced settings

Column naming
The name of the resulting aggregation column(s) depends on the selected naming schema.
  • Keep original name(s): Keeps the original column names. Note that you can use all aggregation columns only once with this column naming option to prevent duplicate column names.
  • Aggregation method (column name): Uses the aggregation method first and appends the column name in brackets
  • Column name (aggregation method): Uses the column name first and appends the aggregation method in brackets
