Hi @sathish_Kumar6

Can you check the datatype of columns of your DataTable and the ones in DataBase.
Looks like there’s a mismatch of datatype amongst them.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

  1. Verify column data types: Double-check the data types of the columns in your DataTable and compare them with the corresponding columns in the database table. Ensure that the data types are compatible and match accurately.
  2. Align column names and order: Ensure that the column names in your DataTable match the column names in the database table. Additionally, verify that the columns are in the same order in both the DataTable and the database table. Any mismatch in column names or order can result in the error.
  3. Convert data types if necessary: If you encounter a data type mismatch between your DataTable and the database table, you may need to convert the data types to match. For example, if a column in the DataTable is of type String but the corresponding column in the database table is of type Integer, you would need to convert the values in the DataTable column to integers before performing the update.
  4. Check for null values: Ensure that there are no null values in the columns of the DataTable if the corresponding columns in the database table do not allow nulls. You may need to handle or convert any null values in the DataTable before performing the update.
  5. Consider using data adapters or other methods: Instead of using the Bulk Insert activity, you can consider using data adapters or other methods provided by your database connector to perform the data update. These methods often provide more flexibility and options for handling data type mismatches.

Hi @sathish_Kumar6

Ensure that the data types of the columns in your DataTable match the data types of the corresponding columns in the database table. For example, if a column in the database table is of type “varchar(50)”, the corresponding column in the DataTable should also be of type “String” with a maximum length of 50 characters.

Thanks!!
