Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'Id' to data type int

Question

I got this error when trying run my sql query...

Conversion failed when converting the varchar value \'Id\' to data type int

Answer 1

Try casting Id column to INT

SELECT *
FROM History
INNER JOIN Header
ON cast(History.Id AS int) = Header.docId

Answer 2

In your Join condition am sure one column is of Integer type and other one is Varchar type.

ON History.Id = Header.docId

since Int has higher precedence than varchar, Varchar column will be implicitly converted to Int

So explicitly convert the Int column to varchar.

ON History.Id = cast(Header.docId as varchar(50))

I have considered Header.docId as Int type if no, then convert History.Id to varchar
