First, log into your Smartsheets account and open the sheet you want to export. Use the "File" menu to select "Export" and then choose "Export to CSV." Save the CSV file to a location on your computer where you can easily access it later. CSV format is recommended because it is widely supported and straightforward to work with.
Open the exported CSV file using a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Review the data to ensure it is complete and accurate. Clean the data by removing any unnecessary columns, correcting errors, and ensuring consistency in data formats (e.g., date formats, number formats).
Convert any data formats in the CSV that need to match the Oracle database schema. This may involve changing date formats, converting text fields, or adjusting number formats. Ensure that the column names in your CSV match the column names in your Oracle database table to facilitate a smooth import process.
Log into your Oracle Database using a tool such as SQL*Plus, SQL Developer, or any other interface you prefer. Create a new table or ensure an existing table is ready to receive the data. Use SQL commands to define the table schema, ensuring it matches the structure of your CSV file.
```sql
CREATE TABLE your_table_name (
column1 datatype,
column2 datatype,
...
);
```
Ensure that the CSV file is accessible from the server where your Oracle Database is hosted. This may involve transferring the file via secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) or placing it in a shared directory that the Oracle server can access.
Utilize Oracle's SQL*Loader utility, which is designed for loading data from external files into Oracle tables. Create a control file that specifies how to interpret the CSV file.
Example control file (`control.ctl`):
```plaintext
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'path_to_your_csv_file.csv'
INTO TABLE your_table_name
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(
column1, column2, ...
)
```
Run SQL*Loader from the command line:
```bash
sqlldr userid=username/password control=control.ctl
```
After the data import process is complete, verify that the data has been correctly imported into the Oracle Database. Use SQL queries to check the data in the database table. Validate that all records have been imported, and the data integrity is maintained.
```sql
SELECT * FROM your_table_name;
```
By following these steps, you can manually transfer data from Smartsheets to an Oracle Database without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
