What could be the Consequence of inserting “id” in any autoincrementing ‘id’ containing table?
If I have a Tabe in which I have configured the column “id” as the auto incrmented, But still I am using an INSERT query in which id is defined, like wise INSERT INTO XYZ (id) values ('26');
How does it going to effect the table and the process related to it..
Is it “no issues” to do this? or it should be avoided?
You can do this if you need to. The table keeps track of what the
AUTO_INCREMENTnumber is at, and if you insert a number equal to or higher than this number, then MySQL adjusts theAUTO_INCREMENTvalue appropriately.Basically, inserts always start from the highest auto_increment id + 1, and you can insert specific ids with no problems.
