Insert a single Table into Multiple Databases - sql

Question

I am trying to insert a table into multiple databases.
I have figured out how to make it insert the single table into all of the Databases but I need it to exclude about 10 databases like the master, model, tempdb, msdb, then I have some others as well.
EXEC sp_msforeachdb
'
USE ?;
IF [?] NOT IN master, model, tempdb,
CREATE TABLE [?].[dbo].[FaceEnrollments](
[EmployeeNo] [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
[TIN] [varchar](20) NOT NULL,
[irFaceTemplate] [varchar](max) NULL,
[faceBitmap] [varchar](max) NULL,
[faceAttestationAccepted] [bit] NULL,
[EnrollmentDateTime] [datetime] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_FaceEnrollments] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EmployeeNo] ASC,
[TIN] ASC
)
);
';
This is what I got so far to add the table to all databases.
I have tried multiple things to exclude databases from this, but I cannot figure it out.
I was hoping someone could help me out. Please and Thank you!

Answer 1

you can adjust your dynamic query to this:
EXEC sp_msforeachdb
'
IF ''?'' NOT IN (''master'', ''model'', ''tempdb'')
CREATE TABLE ?.[dbo].[FaceEnrollments](
[EmployeeNo] [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
[TIN] [varchar](20) NOT NULL,
[irFaceTemplate] [varchar](max) NULL,
[faceBitmap] [varchar](max) NULL,
[faceAttestationAccepted] [bit] NULL,
[EnrollmentDateTime] [datetime] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_FaceEnrollments] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EmployeeNo] ASC,
[TIN] ASC
)
);
';
Also I recommand the better and more flexible sp originally created by Aaron Bertrand, you can download from Github for free :
SQL-Server-First-Responder-Kit/sp_ineachdb
which you can use exclude_list or exclude_pattern parameter to exclude databases:
exec [dbo].[sp_ineachdb]
#exclude_list = 'List of excluded databases'
#command = 'CREATE TABLE [dbo].[FaceEnrollments](...)'
