I have a temp table with multiple rows in it and each row has a column called Categories; which contains a very simple json array of ids for categories in a different table.
A few example rows of the temp table:
Id Name Categories
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'539f7e28-143e-41bb-8814-a7b93b846007' Test 1 ["category1Id", "category2Id", "category3Id"]
'f29e2ecf-6e37-4aa9-aa56-4a351d298bfc' Test 2 ["category1Id", "category2Id"]
'34e41a0a-ad92-4cd7-bf5c-8df6bfd6ed5c' Test 3 NULL
Now what I would like to do is to select all of the category ids from all of the rows in the temp table.
What I have is the following and it's not working as it's giving me the error of :
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
SELECT
c.Id
,c.[Name]
,c.Color
FROM
dbo.Category as c
WHERE
c.Id in (SELECT [value] FROM OPENJSON((SELECT Categories FROM #TempTable)))
and c.IsDeleted = 0
Which I guess it makes sense that's failing on that because I'm selecting multiple rows and needing to parse each row's respective category ids json. I'm just not sure what to do/change to give me the results that I want. Thank you in advance for any help.
You'd need to use CROSS APPLY like so:
SELECT id ,
name ,
t.Value AS category_id
FROM #temp
CROSS APPLY OPENJSON(categories, '$') t;
And then, you can JOIN to your Categories table using the category_id column, something like this:
SELECT id ,
name ,
t.Value AS category_id,
c.*
FROM #temp
CROSS APPLY OPENJSON(categories, '$') t
LEFT JOIN Categories c ON c.Id = t.Value

While working with postgres db, I came across a situation where I will have to display column names based on their ids stored in a table with comma separated. Here is a sample:
table1 name: labelprint
id field_id
1 1,2
table2 name: datafields
id field_name
1 Age
2 Name
3 Sex
Now in order to display the field name by picking ids from table1 i.e. 1,2 from field_id column, I want the field_name to be displayed in same order as their respective ids as
Expected result:
id field_id field_name
1 2,1 Name,Age
To achieve the above result, I have written the following query:
select l.id,l.field_id ,string_agg(d.field_name,',') as field_names
from labelprint l
join datafields d on d.id = ANY(string_to_array(l.field_id::text,','))
group by l.id
order by l.id
However, the string_agg() functions sort the final string in ascending order and displays the output as shown below:
id field_id field_name
1 2,1 Age, Name
As you can see the order is not maintained in the field_name column which I want to display as per field_id value order.
Any suggestion/help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Already mentioned in the description.
While this will probably be horrible for performance, as well as readability and maintainability, you can dynamically compute the order you want:
select l.id,l.field_id,
string_agg(d.field_name,','
order by array_position(string_to_array(l.field_id::text,','),d.id)
) as field_names
from labelprint l
join datafields d on d.id = ANY(string_to_array(l.field_id::text,','))
group by l.id
order by l.id;
You should at least store your array as an actual array, not as a comma delimited string. Or maybe use an intermediate table and don't store arrays at all.
With a small modification to your existing query you could do it as follows :
select l.id, l.field_id, string_agg(d.field_name,',') as field_names
from labelprint l
join datafields d on d.id::varchar = ANY(string_to_array(l.field_id,','))
group by l.id, l.field_id
order by l.id

Given that I have a list of repeating ids that I need to fetch some additional data to populate xls spreadsheet, how can I do that. "IN" clause returns only 1 match, but I need a row for each occurrence of an Id. I looked at PIVOT, thinking I could create a select list and then do inner join.
Select m.Id, m.LegalName, m.OtherId
from MyTable m
where m.OtherId in (1,2,1,1,3,1,4,4,2,1)
You can use VALUES clause :
SELECT t.id as OtherId, m.id, m.LegalName
FROM ( VALUES (1),(2),(1),(1),(3),(1),(4),(4),(2),(1)
) t(ID) INNER JOIN
MyTable m
ON m.OtherId = t.id;
Need some help working out the SQL. Unfortunately the version of tsql is SybaseASE which I'm not too familiar with, in MS SQL I would use a windowed function like RANK() or ROW_NUMBER() in a subquery and join to those results ...
Here's what I'm trying to resolve
TABLE A
Id
1
2
3
TABLE B
Id,Type
1,A
1,B
1,C
2,A
2,B
3,A
3,C
4,B
4,C
I would like to return 1 row for each ID and if the ID has a type 'A' record that should display, if it has a different type then it doesn't matter but it cannot be null (can do some arbitrary ordering, like alpha to prioritize "other" return value types)
Results:
1, A
2, A
3, A
4, B
A regular left join (ON A.id = B.id and B.type = 'A') ALMOST returns what I am looking for however it returns null for the type when I want the 'next available' type.
You can use a INNER JOIN on a SubQuery (FirstTypeResult) that will return the minimum type per Id.
Eg:
SELECT TABLEA.[Id], FirstTypeResult.[Type]
FROM TABLEA
JOIN (
SELECT [Id], Min([Type]) As [Type]
FROM TABLEB
GROUP BY [Id]
) FirstTypeResult ON FirstTypeResult.[Id] = TABLEA.[Id]
Using ms-sql 2008 r2; am sure this is very straightforward. I am trying to identify where a unique value {ISIN} has been linked to more than 1 Identifier. An example output would be:
isin entity_id
XS0276697439 000BYT-E
XS0276697439 000BYV-E
This is actually an error and I want to look for other instances where there may be more than one entity_id linked to a unique ISIN.
This is my current working but it's obviously not correct:
select isin, entity_id from edm_security_entity_map
where isin is not null
--and isin = ('XS0276697439')
group by isin, entity_id
having COUNT(entity_id) > 1
order by isin asc
Thanks for your help.
Elliot,
I don't have a copy of SQL in front of me right now, so apologies if my syntax isn't spot on.
I'd start by finding the duplicates:
select
x.isin
,count(*)
from edm_security_entity_map as x
group by x.isin
having count(*) > 1
Then join that back to the full table to find where those duplicates come from:
;with DuplicateList as
(
select
x.isin
--,count(*) -- not used elsewhere
from edm_security_entity_map as x
group by x.isin
having count(*) > 1
)
select
map.isin
,map.entity_id
from edm_security_entity_map as map
inner join DuplicateList as dup
on dup.isin = map.isin;
HTH,
Michael
So you're saying that if isin-1 has a row for both entity-1 and entity-2 that's an error but isin-3, say, linked to entity-3 in two separe rows is OK? The ugly-but-readable solution to that is to pre-pend another CTE on the previous solution
;with UniqueValues as
(select distinct
y.isin
,y.entity_id
from edm_security_entity_map as y
)
,DuplicateList as
(
select
x.isin
--,count(*) -- not used elsewhere
from UniqueValues as x
group by x.isin
having count(*) > 1
)
select
map.isin
,map.entity_id
from edm_security_entity_map as map -- or from UniqueValues, depening on your objective.
inner join DuplicateList as dup
on dup.isin = map.isin;
There are better solutions with additional GROUP BY clauses in the final query. If this is going into production I'd be recommending that. Or if your table has a bajillion rows. If you just need to do some analysis the above should suffice, I hope.
The query below returns 9,817 records. Now, I want to SELECT one more field from another table. See the 2 lines that are commented out, where I've simply selected this additional field and added a JOIN statement to bind this new columns. With these lines added, the query now returns 649,200 records and I can't figure out why! I guess something is wrong with my WHERE criteria in conjunction with the JOIN statement. Please help, thanks.
SELECT DISTINCT dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID, BEGDOC, BATCHID
--, dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.CATEGORY_ID
FROM IMPORT_DOCUMENTS
--JOIN dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS ON
dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.ITEMID = dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID
WHERE (BATCHID LIKE 'IC0%' OR BATCHID LIKE 'LP0%')
AND dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID IN
(SELECT dbo.CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS.ITEMID FROM

AND Sample_Id > 0)
AND dbo.IMPORT_DOCUMENTS.ITEMID NOT IN
(SELECT ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS.Item_Id FROM ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS)
One possible reason is because one of your tables contains data at lower level, lower than your join key. For example, there may be multiple records per item id. The same item id is repeated X number of times. I would fix the query like the below. Without data knowledge, Try running the below modified query.... If output is not what you're looking for, convert it into SELECT Within a Select...
Hope this helps....
Try this SQL: SELECT DISTINCT a.ITEMID, a.BEGDOC, a.BATCHID, b.CATEGORY_ID FROM IMPORT_DOCUMENTS a JOIN (SELECT DISTINCT ITEMID FROM CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATEGORY_RESULTS WHERE SCORE >= .7 AND SCORE <= .75 AND CATEGORY_ID IN (SELECT DISTINCT CATEGORY_ID FROM CATEGORY_COLLECTION_CATS WHERE COLLECTION_ID IN (11,16)) AND Sample_Id > 0) B ON a.ITEMID =b.ITEMID WHERE a.(a.BATCHID LIKE 'IC0%' OR a.BATCHID LIKE 'LP0%') AND a.ITEMID NOT IN (SELECT DIDTINCT Item_Id FROM ASSIGNMENT_FOLDER_DOCUMENTS)
