You could manually escape your inputs using
quote (as described in
DBI), but that's still a lot of interpolation and kind of a mess. Cleaner would be to use
Placeholders and Bind Values. For example, if I were writing your code, it might look more like
my $sql = <<EOSQL;
insert into Table ( Ticket_ID,
Subject,
Status,
Priority,
Created_Time,
Queue,
Owner,
Class_Type,
Sent_Date)
values (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,now());
EOSQL
my $query = $dbh->prepare($sql) or die $dbh->errstr;
$query->execute($Ticket_ID,
$Subject,
$Status,
$Priority,
$Created_Time,
$Queue,
$Owner,
$Class_Type,
) or die $dbh->errstr;
Also note I corrected a typo in your SQL - in the future, make sure that what you post actually compiles/runs/demonstrates your issue, as described in
How do I post a question effectively?.
#11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.
