UPDATE Statements
UPDATE Statements #
UPDATE statement is used to perform row-level updating on the target table according to the filter if provided.
Attention Currently, UPDATE statement only supports in batch mode, and it requires the target table connector implements the
SupportsRowLevelUpdate
interface to support the row-level update. An exception will be thrown if trying to UPDATE the table which has not implements the related interface. Currently, there is no existing connector maintained by flink has supported UPDATE yet.
Run a UPDATE statement #
UPDATE statements can be executed with the executeSql() method of the TableEnvironment. The executeSql() will submit a Flink job immediately, and return a TableResult instance which associates the submitted job.
The following examples show how to run a single UPDATE statement in TableEnvironment.

UPDATE statements can be executed with the execute_sql() method of the TableEnvironment. The executeSql() will submit a Flink job immediately, and return a TableResult instance which associates the submitted job.
The following examples show how to run a single UPDATE statement in TableEnvironment.
UPDATE statements can be executed in SQL CLI.
