INSERT INTO

‌INSERT INTO is used together with SELECT to write the selected data to the specified sink.

Syntax

INSERT INTO sink name
SELECT subclause

Example

The example below inserts the result of the SELECT query to the sink named KafkaSink1.
INSERT INTO KafkaSink1
SELECT s1.time_, s1.client_ip, s1.uri, s1.protocol_version, s2.status_code, s2.date_
FROM KafkaSource1 AS s1, KafkaSource2 AS s2
WHERE s1.time_ = s2.time_ AND s1.client_ip = s2.client_ip;

About sinks

Connector package

If a sink is specified using WITH parameters, make sure you select the corresponding built-in connector or upload the connector package.
Without a matching connector package, the error org.apache.flink.table.api.ValidationException: Could not find any factory will occur when you run the job.
If data is read from or written to Kafka, instead of selecting an old-version package such as flink-connector-kafka-0.11, we recommend you use flink-connector-kafka (without a version number) and set connector.version to universal to support the latest features.

Calculated columns

INSERT INTO ignores calculated columns in the sink. Assume that a sink is defined as follows. The SELECT clause following INSERT INTO MySink must include a (VARCHAR) and b (BIGINT) and cannot include the calculated column c.
CREATE TABLE MySink (
a VARCHAR,
b BIGINT,
c AS PROCTIME()
) WITH ( ... ... );

Difference between tuple and upsert streams

Make sure you specify the correct WITH parameters for the sink. For example, some connectors can only be used as sources and not sinks, and some only support tuple streams and not upsert streams.
