Getting @@IDENTITY from TableAdapter

Question

I am trying to complete a seemingly simple task that has turned into a several hour adventure: Getting @@Identity from TableAdapter.Insert().

Answer 1

Here's my SQL Code that works.

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Branch_Insert]
(
    @UserId uniqueidentifier,
    @OrganisationId int,
    @InsertedID int OUTPUT
)
AS
    SET NOCOUNT OFF;
INSERT INTO [Branch] ([UserId], [OrganisationId]) 
VALUES (@UserId, @OrganisationId);

SELECT Id, UserId, OrganisationId FROM Branch WHERE (Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY())
SELECT @InsertedID = SCOPE_IDENTITY()

Then when I create the Table Adapter - I can instantly see the @InsertedID parameter.

Then from code, all I do is:

int? insertedId = 0;
branchTA.Insert(userId, orgId, ref insertedId);

I'm not 100% whether using ref is the best option but this works for me.

Good luck.
