SELECT distinct values for multiple rows of same ID

Question

I have a table that looks like this:

ID | FIELD_NAME   | VALUE
23 |  sign_up     |  yes
23 |  first_name  |  Fred
23 |  street      |  Barber Lane
24 |  sign         


        

Answer 1

You could also try pivoting with the help of grouping and conditional aggregating:

SELECT
  ID,
  MAX(CASE FIELD_NAME WHEN 'sign_up'    THEN VALUE END) AS SIGN_UP,
  MAX(CASE FIELD_NAME WHEN 'first_name' THEN VALUE END) AS FIRST_NAME,
  MAX(CASE FIELD_NAME WHEN 'street'     THEN VALUE END) AS STREET
FROM atable
GROUP BY
  ID
;
