Execute stored procedure with an Output parameter? - sql-server

Question

I have a stored procedure that I am trying to test. I am trying to test it through SQL Management Studio. In order to run this test I enter ...
exec my_stored_procedure 'param1Value', 'param2Value'
The final parameter is an output parameter. However, I do not know how to test a stored procedure with output parameters.
How do I run a stored procedure with an output parameter?

Answer 1

The easy way is to right-click on the procedure in Sql Server Management Studio (SSMS), select 'Execute stored procedure..." and add values for the input parameters as prompted. SSMS will then generate the code to run the procedure in a new query window, and execute it for you. You can study the generated code to see how it is done.

Answer 2

you can do this :
declare #rowCount int
exec yourStoredProcedureName #outputparameterspOf = #rowCount output

Answer 3

Return val from procedure
ALTER PROCEDURE testme #input VARCHAR(10),
#output VARCHAR(20) output
AS
BEGIN
IF #input >= '1'
BEGIN
SET #output = 'i am back';
RETURN;
END
END
DECLARE #get VARCHAR(20);
EXEC testme
'1',
#get output
SELECT #get

Answer 4

Check this, where the first two parameters are input parameters and the 3rd is an Output parameter in the Procedure definition.
DECLARE #PK_Code INT;
EXEC USP_Validate_Login 'ID', 'PWD', #PK_Code OUTPUT
SELECT #PK_Code

Procedure Example :
Create Procedure [dbo].[test]
#Name varchar(100),
#ID int Output
As
Begin
SELECT #ID = UserID from tbl_UserMaster where Name = #Name
Return;
END
How to call this procedure
Declare #ID int
EXECUTE [dbo].[test] 'Abhishek',#ID OUTPUT
PRINT #ID

From https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/sql/relational-databases/system-stored-procedures/sp-executesql-transact-sql (originally http://support.microsoft.com/kb/262499)
CREATE PROCEDURE Myproc
#parm varchar(10),
**#parm1OUT varchar(30) OUTPUT**,
**#parm2OUT varchar(30) OUTPUT**
AS
SELECT #parm1OUT='parm 1' + #parm
SELECT #parm2OUT='parm 2' + #parm
GO
DECLARE #SQLString NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE #ParmDefinition NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE #parmIN VARCHAR(10)
DECLARE #parmRET1 VARCHAR(30)
DECLARE #parmRET2 VARCHAR(30)
SET #parmIN=' returned'
SET #SQLString=N'EXEC Myproc #parm,
#parm1OUT OUTPUT, #parm2OUT OUTPUT'
SET #ParmDefinition=N'#parm varchar(10),
#parm1OUT varchar(30) OUTPUT,
#parm2OUT varchar(30) OUTPUT'
EXECUTE sp_executesql
#SQLString,
#ParmDefinition,
#parm=#parmIN,
#parm1OUT=#parmRET1 OUTPUT,#parm2OUT=#parmRET2 OUTPUT
SELECT #parmRET1 AS "parameter 1", #parmRET2 AS "parameter 2"
GO
DROP PROCEDURE Myproc

Answer 7

First, declare the output variable:
DECLARE #MyOutputParameter INT;
Then, execute the stored procedure, and you can do it without parameter's names, like this:
EXEC my_stored_procedure 'param1Value', #MyOutputParameter OUTPUT
or with parameter's names:
EXEC my_stored_procedure #param1 = 'param1Value', #myoutput = #MyOutputParameter OUTPUT
And finally, you can see the output result by doing a SELECT:
SELECT #MyOutputParameter

Answer 8

With this query you can execute any stored procedure (with or without an output parameter):
DECLARE #temp varchar(100)
EXEC my_sp
#parameter1 = 1,
#parameter2 = 2,
#parameter3 = #temp output,
#parameter4 = 3,
#parameter5 = 4
PRINT #temp
Here the datatype of #temp should be the same as #parameter3 within your Stored Procedure.

Answer 9

How about this? It's extremely simplified:
The SPROC below has an output parameter of #ParentProductID
We want to select the value of the output of #ParentProductID into #MyParentProductID which is declared below.
Here's the Code:
declare #MyParentProductID int
exec p_CheckSplitProduct #ProductId = 4077, #ParentProductID = #MyParentProductID output
select #MyParentProductID

Answer 10

Try this; it's working fine for the multiple output parameter:
CREATE PROCEDURE [endicia].[credentialLookup]
#accountNumber varchar(20),
#login varchar(20) output,
#password varchar(50) output
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT top 1 #login = [carrierLogin],#password = [carrierPassword]
FROM [carrier_account] where carrierLogin = #accountNumber
order by clientId, id
END
Try for the result:
SELECT *FROM [carrier_account]
DECLARE #login varchar(20),#password varchar(50)
exec [endicia].[credentialLookup] '588251',#login OUTPUT,#password OUTPUT
SELECT 'login'=#login,'password'=#password

Answer 11

CREATE PROCEDURE DBO.MY_STORED_PROCEDURE
(#PARAM1VALUE INT,
#PARAM2VALUE INT,
#OUTPARAM VARCHAR(20) OUT)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM DBO.PARAMTABLENAME WHERE PARAM1VALUE=#PARAM1VALUE
END
DECLARE #OUTPARAM2 VARCHAR(20)
EXEC DBO.MY_STORED_PROCEDURE 1,#OUTPARAM2 OUT
PRINT #OUTPARAM2

Answer 12

Here is the stored procedure
create procedure sp1
(
#id as int,
#name as nvarchar(20) out
)
as
begin
select #name=name from employee where id=#id
end
And here is the way to execute the procedure
declare #name1 nvarchar(10)
exec sp1 1,#name1 out
print #name1

Answer 13

Please check below example to get output variable value by executing a stored procedure.
DECLARE #return_value int,
#Ouput1 int,
#Ouput2 int,
#Ouput3 int
EXEC #return_value = 'Your Sp Name'
#Param1 = value1,
#Ouput1 = #Ouput1 OUTPUT,
#Ouput2 = #Ouput2 OUTPUT,
#Ouput3 = #Ouput3 OUTPUT
SELECT #Ouput1 as N'#Ouput1',
#Ouput2 as N'#Ouput2',
#Ouput3 as N'#Ouput3'

Answer 14

Here is the definition of the stored_proc:
create proc product(#a int,#b int)
as
return #a * #b
And, this is executing it from Python:
conn = pyodbc.connect('...')
cursor = conn.cursor()
sql = """
SET NOCOUNT ON
declare #r float
exec #r=dbo.product 5,4
select #r
"""
result = cursor.execute(sql)
print (result.fetchall())
