mysql output insert primary key code example

Example 1: mysql change primary key

ALTER TABLE tableName MODIFY COLUMN id INT; /* First you should drop auto increment */
ALTER TABLE tableName DROP PRIMARY KEY; /* Dop primary key */

Example 2: MySQL Primary Key

Typically, you define the primary key for a table in the CREATE TABLE statement.

If the primary key has one column, you can use the PRIMARY KEY constraint as a column constraint:

CREATE TABLE table_name(
    primary_key_column datatype PRIMARY KEY,
    ...
);
