title: SQL Insert Query

## SQL Insert Query
|
|
|
|
Insert queries are a way to insert data into a table. Let's say we have created a table using
|
|
|
|
`CREATE TABLE example_table ( name varchar(255), age int)`
|
|
|
|
**example_table**
|
|
|
|
| Name | Age |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
|
|
Now to add some data to this table , we'll use **INSERT** in the following way:
|
|
|
|
`INSERT INTO example_table (column1,column2) VALUES ("Andrew",23)`
|
|
|
|
**example_table**
|
|
|
|
| Name | Age |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| Andrew | 23 |
|
|
|
|
Even the following will work, but it's always a good practice to specify which data is going into which column.
|
|
|
|
`INSERT INTO table_name VALUES ("John", 28)`
|
|
|
|
**example_table**
|
|
|
|
| Name | Age |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| Andrew | 23 |
|
|
| John | 28 |
