IN Clause with NULL or IS NULL

Question

Postgres is the database

Can I use a NULL value for a IN clause? example:

SELECT *
FROM tbl_name
WHERE id_field IN (\'value1\', \'value2\', \'value3\         


        

Answer 1

I know that is late to answer but could be useful for someone else You can use sub-query and convert the null to 0

SELECT *
FROM (SELECT CASE WHEN id_field IS NULL 
                THEN 0 
                ELSE id_field 
            END AS id_field
      FROM tbl_name) AS tbl
WHERE tbl.id_field IN ('value1', 'value2', 'value3', 0)
