Create a ROW

Focus mode
Create a ROW - Amazon Athena
Note

The examples in this section use ROW as a means to create sample data to work with. When you query tables within Athena, you do not need to create ROW data types, as they are already created from your data source. When you use CREATE_TABLE, Athena defines a STRUCT in it, populates it with data, and creates the ROW data type for you, for each row in the dataset. The underlying ROW data type consists of named fields of any supported SQL data types.

WITH dataset AS ( SELECT ROW('Bob', 38) AS users ) SELECT * FROM dataset

This query returns:

+-------------------------+ | users | +-------------------------+ | {field0=Bob, field1=38} | +-------------------------+
