Dear SQLiters,If an INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE statement detects that a row already exists and needs to be updated, it doesn't seem to set lastRowid to the rowid of that row.

I imagine the reasoning behind this is that if there was no inserted row, then last_*insert*_rowid should remain as it was... but is there any way to obtain this information, other than making a subsequent SELECT?
Replying to myself: I ended up doing exactly this – a subsequent SELECT after the upsert; while this approach is working, it does feel suboptimal. – Daniel _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list [email protected] http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
