Hello,
It is not possible to change one row more than once by one query.
You try to do so by inserting in ins_table_2 (it is "change" of a row)
and update the inserted row by a final query.
It is hard to understand what you want to do because your query is
very artificial: get non-unique data from a table, split it (to get
less unique data) but then "match" two non-unique data via inserted
unique identifier.
The only common hint I can give you is to use data from ins_table_1 in
SELECT part of the ins_table_2 (which should be now not CTE, but the
final query):
WITH rows AS (
SELECT ...
),
ins_table_1 AS (
INSERT INTO public.table_1 (clientid,name_first)
...
RETURNING id -- may be also clientid and name_first?
)
INSERT INTO public.table_2 (c_id, name_last,clientid)
SELECT
ins.id,
rows.name_last,
rows.clientid
FROM rows
INNER JOIN (
SELECT ..., ... OVER()... FROM ins_table_1
) ins ON (...)
Note than CTEs not have indexes and a join process is not fast (for
bigger number of rows).
