Arguments¶

num

Specifies the query to return, based on the position of the query (within the session).

Usage notes¶

  • Positive numbers start with the first query executed in the session. For example:

    • LAST_QUERY_ID(2) returns the second query.

    • LAST_QUERY_ID(6) returns the sixth query.

    • Etc.

  • Negative numbers start with the most recently-executed query in the session. For example:

    • LAST_QUERY_ID(-1) returns the most recently-executed query (equivalent to LAST_QUERY_ID()).

    • LAST_QUERY_ID(-2) returns the second most recently-executed query.

    • Etc.
