Why is SQL server throwing this error: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'id'?

Question

I\'m using the following query:

INSERT INTO role (name, created) VALUES (\'Content Coordinator\', GETDATE()), (\'Content Viewer\', GETDATE())

Answer 1

use IDENTITY(1,1) while creating the table eg

CREATE TABLE SAMPLE(
[Id]     [int]  IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Status] [smallint] NOT NULL,

CONSTRAINT [PK_SAMPLE] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
    [Id] ASC
)
)
