UPDATE column based ID












0















I have a table with two columns, ID and Email Address.



ID   EMAIL
-------------------------
1 no-reply@company.com
2 no-reply@company.com
3 no-reply@company.com
4 no-reply@company.com


I now have a list of emails to update based on their ID. Each email is unique.



I have updated multiple fields before with a query like



 INSERT IGNORE INTO `table` (`column1`, `column2`) VALUES
(0001,0002),
(0004,0004),


Is there a way to use a similar concept while updating the emails with their specific ID?

  • not really because you need a separate WHERE clause for each row. You'll set the same value for each row which matches the WHERE clause. If the number of matched rows is 1 (because your WHERE clause restricts by ID), then you'll need another query to set another row. There's not really any way to shorten that.
