Nodejs: Insert HTML content in Hana Table

[former_member25214]

Hi, I'm having difficulty in insertion of a string that contains special characters. Below is my query

INSERT INTO "3D5F24CF599F49B2B3D8FD219665A30B"."TEST_FAQ" VALUES(
	'2021-02-10T12:41:01.928Z'/*CREATEDAT <TIMESTAMP>*/,
	'admin'/*CREATEDBY <NVARCHAR(255)>*/,
	'2021-02-10T12:41:01.928Z'/*MODIFIEDAT <TIMESTAMP>*/,
	'admin'/*MODIFIEDBY <NVARCHAR(255)>*/,
	'5e3efc3e-6b9d-11eb-9439-0242ac130002'/*ID <NVARCHAR(36)>*/,
	'That's my question'/*QUESTION <NVARCHAR(5000)>*/,
	<p style='box-shadow: 1px 1px 5px #999999;position: relative;margin: 5px 10px;'><p style='padding: 10px;border: 1px solid transparent;'><p style='font-size:16px;word-wrap: break-word;'>Job Description
</p><p><p><strong>Primary Duties and Responsibilities</strong></p><ul><li>'/*ANSWER <NVARCHAR(5000)>*/
)

It gives me incorrect syntax error. Do I have to change my datatype ? How should I do this ?

There are two issues in your statement.

1) The opening single quote for the HTML content string is missing.

2) The single quotes in the HTML content string needs to be escaped. A single quote is escape with an additional single quote (' -> '').

Thanks for pointing it out, I I have to pre-process the string before saving it into my table. I'm not sure if its the right approach or not.
