How to delete duplicate data on a table which have kind data like these.
I want to keep it with the latest updated_at at each attribute id.
Like as follows:
attribute id | created at | product_id
1 | 2020-04-28 15:31:11 | 112235
4 | 2020-04-28 15:30:25 | 112235
1 | 2020-04-29 15:30:25 | 112236
4 | 2020-04-29 15:30:25 | 112236
You can use an EXISTS condition.
delete from the_table t1
where exists (select *
from the_table t2
where t2.created_at > t1.created_at
and t2.attribute_id = t1.attribute_id);
This will delete all rows where another row for the same attribute_id exists that has bigger created_at value (thus keeping only the row with the highest created_at for each attribute_id). Note that if two created_at values are identical, nothing will be deleted for that attribute_id
