Question

I am trying to insert a row of data into a table in SQL Azure —

This is the insert statement–

INSERT INTO cloud_storage_credentials (cloud_provider,api_key, api_secret)
VALUES("Rackspace", "<random_value>", "<random_value>");

However I am getting the following error–

Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Invalid column name 'Rackspace'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Invalid column name '<random_value>'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Invalid column name '<random_value>'.

What am I doing wrong here? I followed an SQL Server tutorial to write the above query…

Answer 1

change the " (double quotes) to ' (tick/single quote)

INSERT INTO cloud_storage_credentials (cloud_provider,api_key, api_secret)
VALUES('Rackspace', '<random_value>', '<random_value>');
