How to run .sql file in Oracle SQL developer tool to import database?

I have exported database from Oracle SQL developer tool into .sql file. Now I want to run this file which is of size 500+ MB.

I read about running scripts here, but I didn’t understand the way. Is there any command or query by which we can run this sql script by providing path?

Answer

You could execute the .sql file as a script in the SQL Developer worksheet. Either use the Run Script icon, or simply press F5.

enter image description here

For example,

@pathscript.sql;

Remember, you need to put @ as shown above.

But, if you have exported the database using database export utility of SQL Developer, then you should use the Import utility. Follow the steps mentioned here Importing and Exporting using the Oracle SQL Developer 3.0
