If I'm not mistaken SSIS doesn't support nullable types for it's built in variables which means for instance a null integer in SQL will become zero when assigned as an SSIS variable.

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have created an SSIS package with 3 input parameters. 2 parameters are mandatory (Required = True) and 1 parameter is NOT mandatory (Required = False).<br />
<br />
I have deployed the package to SSISDB and am running it as a SQL Server Agent job. My question is, how do I set the non-mandatory parameter to blank\Null\Empty?<br />

If I set it to nothing I get the following error message when I click OK.<br />

Hi,

I have created an SSIS package with 3 input parameters. 2 parameters are mandatory (Required = True) and 1 parameter is NOT mandatory (Required = False).

I have deployed the package to SSISDB and am running it as a SQL Server Agent job. My question is, how do I set the non-mandatory parameter to blank\Null\Empty?

If I set it to nothing I get the following error message when I click OK.
 


SSIS Assign Null to Parameter in SQL Server Agent Job Step

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.

Microsoft SQL Server

SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is a component of the Microsoft SQL Server database software that can be used to perform a broad range of data migration tasks. SSIS is a platform for data integration and workflow applications. It features a fast and flexible data warehousing tool used for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). The tool may also be used to automate maintenance of SQL Server databases and updates to multidimensional cube data. SSIS replaced Data Transformation Services, which had been a feature of SQL Server since Version 7.0.

SSIS

SQL (Structured Query Language) is designed to be used in conjunction with relational database products as of a means of working with sets of data. SQL consists of data definition, data manipulation, and procedural elements. Its scope includes data insert, query, update and delete, schema creation and modification, and data access control.
