Question

I need to be able to have multiple select statements or values for my insert. The following works if I remove the second column name (notication_timestamp).

insert into notification (msg,notification_timestamp) select msg from data;

I want to be able to say:

insert into notification (msg,notification_timestamp) values (select msg from data,now());

But that doesn’t work. Any ideas?

Answer 1

you didn’t put notification_timestamp on select query

insert into notification (msg,notification_timestamp) select msg,'value for notification_timestamp' from data;

So it may

insert into notification (msg,notification_timestamp) select msg,now() from data;
