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

If the id column has no default value, but has NOT NULL constraint, then you have to provide a value yourself

INSERT INTO dbo.role (id, name, created) VALUES ('something', 'Content Coordinator', GETDATE()), ('Content Viewer', GETDATE())
