INSERT .. ON CONFLICT .. SET ALL TO EXCLUDED

Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

A synthetic SQL clause extension of the INSERT .. ON CONFLICT .. EXCLUDED syntax is a clause that sets all the (known) columns of a table to EXCLUDED in the ON CONFLICT .. DO UPDATE clause, for convenience.

// Add a new author called "Koontz" with ID 3.
// If that ID is already present, update the author's name
create.insertInto(AUTHOR, AUTHOR.ID, AUTHOR.LAST_NAME)
      .values(3, "Koontz")
      .onConflict(AUTHOR.ID)
      .doUpdate()
      .setAllToExcluded()
      .execute();

Dialect support

This example using jOOQ:

insertInto(AUTHOR, AUTHOR.ID, AUTHOR.LAST_NAME).values(3, "X").onConflict(AUTHOR.ID).doUpdate().setAllToExcluded()

Translates to the following dialect specific expressions:

Aurora Postgres, CockroachDB, DuckDB, Postgres, SQLite, YugabyteDB

INSERT INTO AUTHOR (ID, LAST_NAME)
VALUES (
  3, 
  'X'
)
ON CONFLICT (ID)
DO UPDATE
SET
  ID = excluded.ID,
  LAST_NAME = excluded.LAST_NAME
