UPDATE

Updates the data in the table. After the SET keyword, enter the columns where you want to update values and the new values themselves. The list of rows is defined by the WHERE clause. If WHERE is omitted, the updates are applied to all the rows of the table.

UPDATE can't change the value of PRIMARY_KEY.

Example

UPDATE my_table
SET Value1 = YQL::ToString(Value2 + 1), Value2 = Value2 - 1
WHERE Key1 > 1;

UPDATE ON

Used to update the data within a same transaction, if the table has already been changed.

Example

$to_update = (
    SELECT Key, SubKey, "Updated" AS Value FROM my_table
    WHERE Key = 1
);

SELECT * FROM my_table;

UPDATE my_table ON
SELECT * FROM $to_update;
