Can We Use fm_sql_execute in Production?

User icon

Hello,

In your manual for version 1.5, you state:
"This function is considered experimental by FileMaker, so use with caution."

Are there really any problems with this function, provided we stick with the basic SQL commands (INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE)?

Regards,
Sean Mills

We're using it in production

I'm not sure why FileMaker documented the function this way but it seemed like a good idea to pass the warning along. With that said, there are now a number of plug-ins using this function (I'm referring to the SQL function provided by the plug-in API) and we're using it in production. So far we've had no issues and I haven't heard any reports of issues either.

Regards,
Micah

Thanks

Thanks for letting me know. I wanted to use this command in production and just wanted to ask before doing so.
