INSERT not working in cx_oracle when used with execute. How to get it working?

Question

I am new to cx_oracle. I have established a connection and I am able to create and drop a table using execute.

Where I am failing is when I try to use \"INSERT INTO ...\

Strange that you are not getting an error with that code; that's of course unless you are (sadly) calling the Cursor object, connect.

You need to have something like this somewhere, before all your code:

conn = cx_Oracle.connect(usr, pwd, url)
cursor = conn.cursor()

Proceed then to replace connect.execute(sqlcode) with cursor.execute(sqlcode).
