## Basic settings

| Properties | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Database | Select the desired database type from the list and click<br>Apply. |
| Property Type | Select the way the connection details<br>will be set.<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>Built-In</span>: The connection details will be set                                locally for this component. You need to specify the values for all                                related connection properties manually.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Repository</span>: The connection details stored                                centrally in <span><span>Repository</span><abbr> &gt; </abbr><span>Metadata</span></span> will be reused by this component. </p> <p>You need to click                                the <span>[...]</span> button next to it and in the pop-up                                    <span>Repository Content</span> dialog box, select the                                connection details to be reused, and all related connection                                properties will be automatically filled in.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>This property is not available when other connection component is selected from<br>the Connection Component dropdown list. |
| Use an existing connection | Select this check box and in the Component<br>List drop-down list, select the desired connection component to<br>reuse the connection details you already defined. |
| Component list | Select the component that opens the database connection to be reused by this<br>component. |
| Schema and Edit schema | A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields<br>(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark<br>Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the<br>fields.<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>Built-In</span>: You create and store the schema locally for this component                only.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Repository</span>: You have already created the schema and stored it in the                Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>Click Edit schema to make changes to<br>the schema. If you make changes, the schema automatically becomes built-in.<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>View schema</span>: choose this                option to view the schema only.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Change to built-in property</span>:                choose this option to change the schema to <span>Built-in</span> for local changes.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Update repository connection</span>:                choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether                to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion.</p> <p>If you just want to                propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select <span>No</span> upon completion and choose this schema metadata                again in the <span>Repository Content</span>                window.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>This component offers the advantage of the<br>dynamic schema feature. This allows you to retrieve unknown columns from source<br>files or to copy batches of columns from a source without mapping each column<br>individually. For further information about dynamic schemas, see [Dynamic schema](https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/8.0/studio-user-guide/dynamic-schema).<br><br>This<br>dynamic schema feature is designed for the purpose of retrieving unknown columns of a<br>table and is recommended to be used for this purpose only; it is not recommended for the<br>use of creating tables. |
| Guess Schema | Click this button to generate schema columns based on the query defined in the Query field. |
| JDBC URL | The JDBC URL of the database to be used.<br><br>Information noteNote: There will be no migration operation for Databricks components when the<br>8.0.1-R2026-07 Talend Studio [Modules] monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend is installed. In this case, you may need to update the JDBC URL and other<br>related settings manually for existing Jobs to make sure the JDBC URL begins<br>with jdbc:databricks://. |

To do<br>this, click the [+] button under the table to add<br>as many rows as needed, each row for a driver JAR, then select the cell and click the<br>[...] button at the right side of the cell to<br>open the Module dialog box from which you can select the driver JAR<br>to be used. For example, the driver jar RedshiftJDBC41-1.1.13.1013.jar for the Redshift database.<br><br>For more information, see [Importing a database driver](https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/8.0/components/jdbc/importing-database-driver).<br><br>Information noteNote: There will be no migration operation for Databricks components when the<br>8.0.1-R2026-07 Talend Studio [Modules] monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend is installed. In this case, you may need to update the JDBC URL and other<br>related settings manually for existing Jobs to make sure the JDBC URL begins<br>with jdbc:databricks://. |
| **Driver Class** | Enter the class name for the specified driver between double<br>quotation marks. For example, for the RedshiftJDBC41-1.1.13.1013.jar driver, the name to be entered is<br>com.amazon.redshift.jdbc41.Driver.<br><br>Information noteNote: There will be no migration operation for Databricks components when the<br>8.0.1-R2026-07 Talend Studio [Modules] monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend is installed. In this case, you may need to update the JDBC URL and other<br>related settings manually for existing Jobs to make sure the JDBC URL begins<br>with jdbc:databricks://. |
| User Id and Password | The database user authentication data.<br><br>To enter the password, click the [...] button<br>next to the password field, enter the password in double quotes in the pop-up dialog box,<br>and click OK to save the settings. |
| Specify a data source alias | Select this checkbox and in the<br>Data source alias field displayed, specify the alias of<br>a data source created on Talend Runtime<br>side to use the shared connection pool defined in the data source configuration.<br>This option works only when you deploy and run your Job in Talend Runtime.<br><br>This property is not available when other connection component is selected from<br>the Connection Component dropdown list. |
| Table | Enter the name of the table from which data will be retrieved. |
| Query Type and Query | Specify the database query statement paying particularly attention to the sequence of the fields which must correspond to the schema definition.<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>Built-In</span>: Fill in the query statement in the <span>Query</span> field manually or click the <span>[...]</span> button next to the <span>Query</span> field to build the statement graphically using the SQLBuilder.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Repository</span>: Select the relevant query stored in the Repository by clicking the <span>[...]</span> button next to it and in the pop-up <span>Repository Content</span> dialog box, select the query to be used, and the <span>Query</span> field will be automatically filled in.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>If using the dynamic schema feature, the SELECT query must include the \* wildcard, to retrieve all of the columns from the table selected. |
