How to check if multi select SQL value is unique on a table.

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To check if a multi-select SQL value is unique on a table, you can use the
DISTINCT
keyword in your SQL query. This keyword is used in conjunction with the
SELECT
statement to eliminate all the duplicate records and fetching only unique records. Here is a generic example of how you can use it:
Copy code
sql
SELECT DISTINCT column_name
FROM table_name;
In this query,
column_name
is the name of the column where the multi-select field is stored, and
table_name
is the name of the table where the data is stored. Please note that this will return all the unique values in the specified column. If you want to check if a specific value is unique, you can add a
WHERE
clause to the query:
Copy code
sql
SELECT DISTINCT column_name
FROM table_name
WHERE column_name = 'your_value';
In this query, 'your_value' is the value you want to check for uniqueness. If the query returns more than one row, then the value is not unique. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
