Question

I have the following query which pulls 1000 rows of data:

select barcode, type from collections where user = 'myusername'

I need to move this data to my new collectors_collections table. The user column is now labeled username.

What is the quickest way to do this? A query of some kind or some other way? I am using the latest MySQL Workbench.

Answer 1

You could try running this query:

INSERT INTO
    collectors_collections(barcode, type, username)
SELECT
    barcode,
    type,
    `user`
FROM
    collections
WHERE
    `user` = 'myusername';
