Looking to generate a comma separated list of languages when the ID is the same.
Table 1:
ID | LangID
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 3
2 4
3 1
Table 2:
ID | Language
1 English
2 Spanish
3 French
4 German
Want to generate results that look like:
ID | Languages
1 English, Spanish, French
2 French, German
3 English
Things I have tried:
Stragg - SSIS gives me "Invalid Identifier"
SYS_Connect_By_Path - Can't figure out how to join the ids to convert to the string languages.
Any suggestions?
There are various ways to perform string aggregation to produce a comma separated list - see this link for more details. Based on the example in the link, try:
SELECT x.id,
LTRIM(MAX(SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(x.language,','))
KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY curr),',') AS employees
FROM (SELECT a.id,
b.language,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY a.id ORDER BY b.language) AS curr,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY a.id ORDER BY b.language) -1 AS prev
FROM TABLE_1 a
JOIN TABLE_2 b ON b.id = a.langid) x
GROUP BY x.id
CONNECT BY prev = PRIOR curr AND x.id = PRIOR x.id
START WITH curr = 1;
For 11g, check out the listagg function
select t1.id, listagg(t2.language, ', ') within group (order by t2.language)
from t1, t2
where t1.langId = t2.id
group by t1.id;
