Example

This example shows a populated Action element for an EventRule. The Transact-SQL statements use a notification function to create notifications, and also insert event data into a chronicle table.

<Action>
-- Insert notifications into StockNotifications view
INSERT INTO StockNotifications ( SubscriberId, DeviceName,
    SubscriberLocale, StockSymbol, StockPrice )
SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.DeviceName, S.SubscriberLocale,
        E.StockSymbol, E.StockPrice
    FROM StockSubscriptions S JOIN StockEvents E
    ON S.StockSymbol = E.StockSymbol
    JOIN StockEventChron C
    ON S.StockSymbol = C.StockSymbol
    WHERE S.StockTriggerPrice &lt;= E.StockPrice
        AND S.StockTriggerPrice &gt; C.StockHighPrice;
-- Update the subscription chronicle
INSERT StockSubscriptionChron (SubscriberId, StockSymbol, StockPrice)
SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.StockSymbol, E.StockPrice
    FROM StockSubscriptions S JOIN StockEvents E
    ON S.StockSymbol = E.StockSymbol;
</Action>
