I usually write a function which gets/uses the GETS DIAGNOSTIC

Now, for this case, I'm not writing a function but merely using a
normal
SQL eg:
The server provides the number of changed rows in its response. Like
DELETE 2030. So check whatever you're using to run the commands.
The question is on how to use this number to be inserted into a table
instead of just being informational.
The specifics depend on what language you're using for your database
access. Regardless, though, save the server's response in a variable
and use that.
