Move SQL data from one table to another

Question

I was wondering if it is possible to move all rows of data from one table to another, that match a certain query?

For example, I need to move all table rows from Tab

Answer 1

Here is how do it with single statement

WITH deleted_rows AS (
DELETE FROM source_table WHERE id = 1
RETURNING *
) 
INSERT INTO destination_table 
SELECT * FROM deleted_rows;

EXAMPLE:

    postgres=# select * from test1 ;
 id |  name
----+--------
  1 | yogesh
  2 | Raunak
  3 | Varun
(3 rows)


postgres=# select * from test2;
 id | name
----+------
(0 rows)


postgres=# WITH deleted_rows AS (
postgres(# DELETE FROM test1 WHERE id = 1
postgres(# RETURNING *
postgres(# )
postgres-# INSERT INTO test2
postgres-# SELECT * FROM deleted_rows;
INSERT 0 1


postgres=# select * from test2;
 id |  name
----+--------
  1 | yogesh
(1 row)

postgres=# select * from test1;
 id |  name
----+--------
  2 | Raunak
  3 | Varun
