A CTE can be used wherever a SELECT statement is used; for example, it can be used in a SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE or CREATE VIEW statement. A CTE has a name with an optional column names list, followed by a query expression. When a CTE references itself, it is called a recursive CTE. Review comment: UPDATE and MERGE are not supported in v3.0? https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/SparkStrategies.scala#L765-L768 ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
