Insert Additional Rows of Data

In addition to loading data from staged files into a table, you can insert rows directly into a table using the INSERT DML command.

For example, to insert two additional rows into the table:

INSERT INTO emp_basic VALUES
  ('Clementine','Adamou','cadamou@sf_tuts.com','10510 Sachs Road','Klenak','2017-9-22') ,
  ('Marlowe','De Anesy','madamouc@sf_tuts.co.uk','36768 Northfield Plaza','Fangshan','2017-1-26');

Query Rows Based on Email Address

Return a list of email addresses with United Kingdom domain names using the LIKE function:

SELECT email FROM emp_basic WHERE email LIKE '%.uk';

+--------------------------+
| EMAIL                    |
|--------------------------|
| gbassfordo@sf_tuts.co.uk |
| rtalmadgej@sf_tuts.co.uk |
| madamouc@sf_tuts.co.uk   |
+--------------------------+

Query Rows Based on Start Date

Add 90 days to employee start dates using the DATEADD function to calculate when certain employee benefits might start. Filter the list by employees whose start date occurred earlier than January 1, 2017:

SELECT first_name, last_name, DATEADD('day',90,start_date) FROM emp_basic WHERE start_date <= '2017-01-01';

+------------+-----------+------------------------------+
| FIRST_NAME | LAST_NAME | DATEADD('DAY',90,START_DATE) |
|------------+-----------+------------------------------|
