Hi,
I will explain SQL Full Outer Join in Oracle SQL in this post of Oracle SQL Tutorial series.
Read the previous post of this tutorial series before this.
SQL Right Outer Join in Oracle SQL | Oracle SQL Tutorials -22
The Full Outer Join
The Full Outer Join is used to list the records when there is a match in either first or other table.
Full (Outer) JOIN Syntax
Full Outer Join syntax is as follows.
SELECT column1,column2,column(n)...
FROM table1
FULL OUTER JOIN table2
ON table1.column_name = table2.column_name;
SELECT column1,column2,column(n)...
FROM table1
FULL JOIN table2
ON table1.column_name = table2.column_name;
You can use full outer join as follows. Full outer join and Full join clause run the same as follows.
SQL> SELECT first_name,e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name
2 FROM hr.employees e FULL OUTER JOIN hr.departments d
3* ON (e.department_id = d.department_id)
