Dynamic Input - Raw

When using Dynamic Input with databases, the Database may be returning errors or other information that the tool cannot parse into a dataset.

 

It would be great if we could see the 'raw' response from the database somehow, as this might provide insight into why we are not getting the expected results. 

 

If the tool could output an optional error column that has the unparsed response from the database server, it might allow us to debug the problem ourselves. 

 

If the returned data is actually a string response from the database, but one that is flawed in some way, we might still be able to parse data out of it to 'ride over' the error.
