SQL: INSERTing values in tables
Use
INSERT to insert rows into a table. You can either specify every column value in parentheses after the VALUES keyword, or you can specify a comma-separated list of columns name before VALUES, and only specify those column values in the parentheses after.If you don't specify the value for a column that's the primary key, then the SQL engine will fill it in automatically with a unique id. If you don't specify the value for other columns, then SQL will fill them in with either
NULL or their default value, if one was specified.▶️ You can also learn about this in our Creating a table and inserting data talkthrough.
