Scenario

Estimated Time: 8 min

In this scenario, we will insert the SQL Macro on a Confluence page by inserting Markup from the menu. Our SQL Macro will reference the SQL statement loaded into the body of the macro.

Background

Our scenario will use a Data Source Profile called "BookWarehouse" to query a database table called "PUBLISHERS". The table contains the following columns and rows:

SQL > select * from publishers;
+----+------+-------------------+-----------------+---------+
| id | rank | parent_company    | company_name    | revenue |
+----+------+-------------------+-----------------+---------+
| 10 | 1    | Pearson           | Pearson         | 5000.00 |
| 11 | 2    | Reed              | RELXGroup       | 4900.00 |
| 12 | 3    | WoodbridgeCompany | ThompsonReuters | 4700.00 |
| 13 | 4    | BertelsmannAG-NV  | Bertelsmann     | 4500.00 |
| 14 | 5    | WoltersKluwer     | WoltersKluwer   | 4100.00 |
+----+------+-------------------+-----------------+---------+

Our example query against the PUBLISHERS table looks like:

 SELECT rank as "Worldwide Ranking", company_name as "Company", format(revenue,0) as "M Revenue" FROM publishers ORDER BY rank asc;

Steps

The following steps will demonstrate how to use Markup to insert the SQL Macro on a Confluence page.
