| { <table_name> | <correlation_name> } .*

Examples
Return all columns:
SELECT * FROM OrdersRename a column:
SELECT [SellerOrderId] AS MY_SellerOrderId FROM OrdersCast a column's data as a different data type:
SELECT CAST(AnnualRevenue AS VARCHAR) AS Str_AnnualRevenue FROM OrdersSearch data:
SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com'Return the number of items matching the query criteria:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS MyCount FROM OrdersReturn the number of unique items matching the query criteria:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT SellerOrderId) FROM OrdersReturn the unique items matching the query criteria:
SELECT DISTINCT SellerOrderId FROM OrdersSummarize data:
SELECT SellerOrderId, MAX(AnnualRevenue) FROM Orders GROUP BY SellerOrderIdSee Aggregate Functions below for details.
Retrieve data from multiple tables.
SELECT c.SellerOrderId, o.SellerSKU, o.NumberOfItems, o.QuantityShipped FROM Orders c INNER JOIN OrderItems o ON c.AmazonOrderId = o.AmazonOrderIdSee JOIN Queries below for details.
Sort a result set in ascending order:
SELECT Id, SellerOrderId FROM Orders ORDER BY SellerOrderId ASCRestrict a result set to the specified number of rows:
SELECT Id, SellerOrderId FROM Orders LIMIT 10Parameterize a query to pass in inputs at execution time. This enables you to create prepared statements and mitigate SQL injection attacks.
SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = @param
Aggregate Functions
COUNT
Returns the number of rows matching the query criteria.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com'
COUNT(DISTINCT)
Returns the number of distinct, non-null field values matching the query criteria.
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Id) AS DistinctValues FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com'
AVG
Returns the average of the column values.
SELECT SellerOrderId, AVG(AnnualRevenue) FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com' GROUP BY SellerOrderId
MIN
Returns the minimum column value.
SELECT MIN(AnnualRevenue), SellerOrderId FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com' GROUP BY SellerOrderId
MAX
Returns the maximum column value.
SELECT SellerOrderId, MAX(AnnualRevenue) FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com' GROUP BY SellerOrderId
SUM
Returns the total sum of the column values.
SELECT SUM(AnnualRevenue) FROM Orders WHERE BuyerEmail = 'bob@gmail.com'
JOIN Queries
The Provider for Amazon Marketplace supports standard SQL joins like the following examples.
Inner Join
An inner join selects only rows from both tables that match the join condition:
SELECT c.SellerOrderId, o.SellerSKU, o.NumberOfItems, o.QuantityShipped FROM Orders c INNER JOIN OrderItems o ON c.AmazonOrderId = o.AmazonOrderId
Left Join
A left join selects all rows in the FROM table and only matching rows in the JOIN table:
SELECT c.SellerOrderId, o.SellerSKU, o.NumberOfItems, o.QuantityShipped FROM Orders c LEFT JOIN OrderItems o ON c.AmazonOrderId = o.AmazonOrderId
Date Literal Functions
The following date literal functions can be used to filter date fields using relative intervals. Note that while the <, >, and = operators are supported for these functions, <= and >= are not.
L_TODAY()
The current day.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_TODAY()
L_YESTERDAY()
The previous day.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_YESTERDAY()
L_TOMORROW()
The following day.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_TOMORROW()
L_LAST_WEEK()
Every day in the preceding week.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_LAST_WEEK()
L_THIS_WEEK()
Every day in the current week.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_THIS_WEEK()
L_NEXT_WEEK()
Every day in the following week.
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_NEXT_WEEK()
Also available:
L_LAST/L_THIS/L_NEXT MONTH
L_LAST/L_THIS/L_NEXT QUARTER

SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE MyDateField = L_LAST_N_DAYS(3)
L_NEXT_N_DAYS(n)
The following n days, including the current day.
