I am a complete beginner to BigQuery, and I am trying to create an inner join between two table names, where the column 'title' is the joining column. I believe my syntax is correct, but I do not know what I am doing wrong when I input the ON clause. Here is my syntax:
SELECT
*
FROM
book-to-film-adaptations.movies.movies_metadata_relevant
JOIN
book-to-film-adaptations.goodreads_books.goodreads_books_relevant_data
ON
movies_metadata_relevant.title = goodreads_books_relevant_data.title
I get this error message: Unrecognized name: movies_metadata_relevant at [8:3]
I have tried it with the full names (book-to-film-adaptations.movies.movies_metadata_relevant), but then I get an error message: "Syntax error: Unexpected keyword TO"
Any suggestions?
Thanks
You need to alias tables and use those like in below example - but in this case you will need
...
...
FROM
`book-to-film-adaptations.movies.movies_metadata_relevant` t1
JOIN
`book-to-film-adaptations.goodreads_books.goodreads_books_relevant_data` t2
ON
t1.title = t2.title
or if join columns have same name (like in your case) you can use below version
...
...
FROM
`book-to-film-adaptations.movies.movies_metadata_relevant` t1
JOIN
`book-to-film-adaptations.goodreads_books.goodreads_books_relevant_data` t2
USING (title)
post_code is a primary key in the location table and foreign key in job. I am trying to join them, could anyone help.
SELECT job.start_date, job.cust_id, job.veh_id, location.post_code, location.country_name_location
FROM job
INNER JOIN location job.post_code ON location.post_code AND country_name_location = 'France';
SQL Error: ORA-00905: missing keyword
00905. 00000 - "missing keyword"

Your ON is in the wrong position:
SELECT job.start_date, job.cust_id, job.veh_id, location.post_code, location.country_name_location
FROM job
INNER JOIN location ON job.post_code = location.post_code AND country_name_location = 'France';
There is an error in your syntax. The ON keyword is meant to come after you specify the table you are joining with. So the correct query would be:
SELECT job.start_date, job.cust_id, job.veh_id, location.post_code, location.country_name_location
FROM job
INNER JOIN location ON job.post_code = location.post_code AND country_name_location = 'France';

The issue is in mixing the old Oracle syntax with the ANSI join syntax; for example, say you have these tables:
create table t1(n1 number);
create table t2(n2 number);
create table t3(n3 number);
this is what you get:
SQL> select *
2 from t1,t2
3 left join t3 on t3.n3 = t1.n1
4 where t1.n1 = t2.n2;
left join t3 on t3.n3 = t1.n1
*
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-00904: "T1"."N1": invalid identifier
SQL> select *
2 from t1
3 inner join t2 on t1.n1 = t2.n2
4 left join t3 on t3.n3 = t1.n1;
no rows selected
The problem is your left join. There is probably a column missing; the one you are joining on.
Here is more details on the error you're receiving:

I have some Code here,
`SELECT a.Officer_ID, Count(Crime_ID)
FROM Officers a inner Join Crime_Officers b on a.Officer_ID = b.Officer_ID
Group by a.Officer_ID
Having (Count(Crime_ID) > (select avg(distinct(Count(Crime_ID)))
From Crime_Officers
Group by officer_Id));`
it outputs this,
`OFFICER_ID COUNT(CRIME_ID)
---------- ---------------
111115 9 `
Its cool and all, but my assignment only needs the officers last name which is in table A. I tried it with the Officer_ID and Count just to make sure the code was working. When I try it like this,
`SELECT Last
FROM Officers a inner Join Crime_Officers b on a.Officer_ID = b.Officer_ID
Group by a.Officer_ID
Having (Count(Crime_ID) > (select avg(distinct(Count(Crime_ID)))
From Crime_Officers
Group by officer_Id));`
I get this error,
`Error starting at line 1 in command:
SELECT Last
FROM Officers a inner Join Crime_Officers b on a.Officer_ID = b.Officer_ID
Group by a.Officer_ID
Having (Count(Crime_ID) > (select avg(distinct(Count(Crime_ID)))

Can anyone help or explain what I'm missing/Doing wrong?
You can only select a column if a) it's in the GROUP BY, b) it's derived from a GROUP BY column or c) it's the result of an aggregate function like MAX/MIN.
In your case, each Officer_ID should only have one Last value.
Simply change your GROUP BY to read:
GROUP BY a.Officer_ID, a.Last
I am using Oracle (Still a little new to it) and each time i run the update statement below i get the following error message.
SQL Error: ORA-00904: "CH"."CONTRACT_ID": invalid identifier
00904. 00000 - "%s: invalid identifier"
*Cause:
*Action:
Here is the query:
UPDATE wr00262_catalogue_201310 ct SET
ct.PORTFOLIO_ID = (SELECT ch.PORTFOLIO_ID
from WR00262_CONTRACT_HEADER ch
WHERE ch.PORTFOLIO_ID = ct.PORTFOLIO_ID)
WHERE ct.NPC in (SELECT ctl.NPC
FROM wr00262_contract_line ctl
WHERE ctl.CONTRACT_ID = ch.CONTRACT_ID);
I think i may need a join but not quite sure where or how. The contract_header table does have a column called CONTRACT_ID.
This is a scoping issue. The columns in one sub-query are not visible to any other sub-query. So try something like this:
UPDATE wr00262_catalogue_201310 ct SET
PORTFOLIO_ID = (
SELECT ch.PORTFOLIO_ID
from WR00262_CONTRACT_HEADER ch
WHERE ch.PORTFOLIO_ID = ct.PORTFOLIO_ID
)
WHERE ct.NPC in (
SELECT ctl.NPC
FROM WR00262_CONTRACT_HEADER ch
join wr00262_contract_line ctl
on ctl.CONTRACT_ID = ch.CONTRACT_ID
WHERE ch.PORTFOLIO_ID = ct.PORTFOLIO_ID
);
