Question

I have a procedure that receives a table as a parameter. I need to fill it on then return it to another procedure that executes the first one. But, the problem is that when y compile I receive this error message:

Mens 352, Nivel 15, Estado 1, Procedimiento Person_InsertCloud, Línea 1
The table-valued parameter “@TableServerIds” must be declared with the READONLY option.

Can’t a table as a parameter can be modified? What other options do I have?

Thanks

Answer 1

Can’t a Table as a parameter can be modified?

No. It is one of the restrictions on TVPs.

The restriction is documented:

Table-valued parameters must be passed as input READONLY parameters to Transact-SQL routines. You cannot perform DML operations such as UPDATE, DELETE, or INSERT on a table-valued parameter in the body of a routine.

Instead of filling a table, you can return a table from your second stored procedure using SELECT.
