Correct syntax to use where clause is WHERE city = :city AND state = :state

This question validates knowledge on using dynamic queries in DB select operation.

Configure Dynamic Queries in the Select Operation

When you need to parameterize not only the WHERE clause but also parts of the query itself (for example, queries that compare tables that depend on a condition, or complex queries for which the project table columns need to vary), you can configure dynamic queries.

In the following example, you configure a dynamic query by using a full expression with a string in which the table depends on a variable $(vars.table). Although some of the query text is dynamic ("SELECT * FROM $(vars.table)), the WHERE clause still defines the WHERE condition using input parameters: in this case, WHERE name = :name.

In your Studio flow, select the Select operation.

In the operation configuration screen, set the SQL Query Text field to SELECT * FROM $(vars.table) WHERE name = :name.

Set the Input Parameters field to {'name' : payload}.

The following screenshot shows the configuration in Studio:

Figure 3. Dynamic query configuration

In the XML editor, the  configuration looks like this:

• #["SELECT * FROM $(vars.table) WHERE name = :name"]
• #[{'name' : payload}]

You can apply input parameters only to parameters in a WHERE clause. To modify any other part of the query, use the DataWeave interpolation operator.

Attributes are replaced with new attributes from the HTTP Request response.

Attributes include everything apart from Payload/body. For ex: Headers, query parameters, URI parameters.

So, when outbound HTTP request is made, new attributes need to pass the outbound HTTP request and old attributes are replaced.

I have created below diagram to make it easy for you to understand:

Only one of the routes in the Choice router executes, meaning that the first expression that evaluates to true triggers that route1 execution and the others are not checked. If none of the expressions are true, then the default route executes. Hence only Route1 will be executed as it is the first expression. hence output of logger is Route1.

MuleSoft Doc Ref : https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/choice-router-concept

The Choice router dynamically routes messages through a flow according to a set of DataWeave expressions that evaluate message content. Each expression is associated with a different routing option. The effect is to add conditional processing to a flow, similar to an if/then/else code block in most programming languages.

Only one of the routes in the Choice router executes, meaning that the first expression that evaluates to true triggers that route’s execution and the others are not checked. If none of the expressions are true, then the default route executes.
