The SQL Loader agent then forwards an SQLLoaderResultUDR containing information about loaded file, number of inserted rows, execution time and any error messages, for logging purposes.

UDR Types
The UDR types used in combination with the SQL Loader agent are FileReferenceUDR and SQLLoaderResultUDR:
FileReferenceUDR
The FileReferenceUDR is the UDR format used to send data from the collection agent to the SQL Loader agent.
The following fields are included in the FileReferenceUDR:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
directory (string) | This field states the name of the directory the data file is located in. |
filename (string) | This field states the name of the file data should be collected from. |
fullpath (string) | This field states the full path to the data file. |
OriginalData (long) | This field contains the original data in byte array format. |
SQLLoaderResultUDR
The SQLLoaderResultUDR is the UDR that the SQL Loader agent sends out after having loaded the data into the database. This UDR contains information for logging purposes that should be handled by another agent in the workflow.
The following fields are included in the SQLLoaderResultUDR:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
errorMessage (string) | This field contains any error message that might have been returned during the loading of data. |
| This field indicates the time it took to load the data into the database. |
filename (string) | This field contains the name of the file from which data was uploaded. |
