Postgres: INSERT if does not exist already
(19 answers)
Closed last year.
I have this SQL query which I need to run on different databases. In some databases it's missing. In other this record is present.
INSERT INTO common.pair_aliases (pair_id, alias)
VALUES (356, 'parisrome');
Is it possible to implement a logic first to check is this record present before executing the SQL query?
If I understand you correctly, maybe WHERE NOT EXISTS could help you:
INSERT INTO common.pair_aliases (pair_id, alias)
SELECT R.*
FROM (VALUES (356, 'pairsrome')) R (pair_id, alias)
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM common.pair_aliases PR WHERE PR.pair_id = R.pair_id)

I have a SQL script with about 250 entries that are being inserted. The script on its own runs fine however, I run into problems in case of duplicate entries. I could try doing something like this:
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM [TS].[Configs] WHERE [Id] = 15)
INSERT . . .
However, I cannot write this repeated statement over and over for the 250 entries. I have tried setting Identity_Insert to ON but I still get this error:
Exception Message: Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'Tbl_LangFiles'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object '[TS].[Configs]'
How can I go about only inserting unique entries in this table?
Have you tried the UPSERT statement?
UPSERT INTO employees (id, name, email)
VALUES (2, ‘Dennis’, ‘dennisp#weyland.corp’);
This will attempt to insert a new record on the database, but if it already exists, it will take the parameters and update.

Dear StackOverflow Community,

('SR','Assgined_SRs_To_Me',(select userid from USERS where groupname='IBMSDL2S' and userid='1249
),DEFAULTQUERYSEQ.NEXTVAL,'MAXADMIN')
but didn't understand how it will work for all userids ,
and userids shouldnt repeat.
kindly help
That depends on tables' description, but - generally speaking, you'd
insert into userqueries
(app,
clausename,
userid)
select app,
clausename,
userid
from users
where ...

i am running this query where in rel_branding there are more than 1 rows and i want to insert brandingid of every record in rel_branding_permission.
This is for PostgresSQL.
insert into rel_branding_permission (brandingid,permissionid)
values((select brandingid from rel_branding), 404);
I want to insert this query in my DB as for all branding ids
You should be using an INSERT INTO ... SELECT here, something like this:
INSERT INTO rel_branding_permission (brandingid)
SELECT brandingid
FROM rel_branding
WHERE <some condition>
You would probably want to include more than one column in the insert into the rel_branding_permission table, and you may modify the above to fit your need by adding the additional columns to both the INSERT and the SELECT.

Cannot SELECT from UPDATE RETURNING clause in postgres
I am using a PostgreSQL database which has a "company" table and a "country" table which each have a uniqueID.
I want a setup where if I try to add a company to the database, it only adds the company to the database with a new unique ID if it doesn't already exist.
insert into company (unique_id, company_name)
select 42, 'New Company Name'
from company
where not exists (select 1 from company where unique_id = 42);

How to get the primary key of the last row inserted into the table
In SQL Server 2008, I have a stored proc that inserts in a table which includes identity column for ID. I need to return the ID of record to my application so that I can use it for related tables.
How can I get generated ID by SQL?
Use select Scope_Identity() to get the ID
A separate SQL statement
SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()
Or the OUTPUT clause
INSERT MyTable (...=
OUTPUT INSERTED.KeyCol
VALUES (...) --Or SELECT ... FROM Another table)
There are multiple options that are a bit different:
SCOPE_IDENTITY() - that's what I would use
IDENT_CURRENT( 'table_name' )
##IDENTITY
