Hi

I am not getting the timestamp value which i am expecting to be automatically inserted in the column defined:
...
"timestamp" timestamp with time zone DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
...
(I see the above definition in pgadmin4 in the tab SQL.
I have set it thru pgadmin4 table->properties->columns by entering CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in the default column)

why is the timestamp value not being automatically inserted by the system

1) It is a DEFAULT value so if a value is provided in the INSERT that will be used.

2) DEFAULT values only apply to INSERTs not UPDATEs.


with warm regards
