How to call Stored Procedure in a View?

Question

How would I call a Stored Procedure that returns data in a View? Is this even possible?

Answer 1

You would have to script the View like below. You would essentially write the results of your proc to a table var or temp table, then select into the view.

Edit - If you can change your stored procedure to a Table Value function, it would eliminate the step of selecting to a temp table.

**Edit 2 ** - Comments are correct that a sproc cannot be read into a view like I suggested. Instead, convert your proc to a table-value function as mentioned in other posts and select from that:

create view sampleView
as select field1, field2, ... 
from dbo.MyTableValueFunction

I apologize for the confusion
