hi,
In the pre-copy script box of the copy activity, I place this tsql statement but the pipeline gives this error.
any suggestions? thank you
my script:
error:
Message=A database operation failed with the following error: 'Incorrect syntax near 'csv'.',Source=,''Type=System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException,Message=Incorrect syntax near 'csv'
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous Couple of things for which we need details :
1) what is the database (type) on which you are executing your pre copy script?
2) based on the expression :
@concat('delete from db_name.tbl_name where file_path = ', 'Source/mydata-new/mydata-03-May-2024.csv')
This seems to be pretty static, not sure why you used the concat here?
3. Also as stated by Nikhil, please provide the screenshot of the log of the Copy activity so we see what SQL command was generated and actually executed

Hi @Anonymous
Thanks for using Fabric Community.
