Get current AUTO INCREMENT value for any table

Question

How do I get the current AUTO INCREMENT value for a table in MySQL

User · Accepted Answer

You can get all of the table data by using this query:

SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM `DatabaseName` WHERE `name` LIKE 'TableName' ;

You can get exactly this information by using this query:

SELECT `AUTO_INCREMENT`
FROM  INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'DatabaseName'
AND   TABLE_NAME   = 'TableName';

I was looking for the same and ended up by creating a static method inside a Helper class  in my case I named it App Helpers Database    The method         Method to get the autoincrement value from a database table        access public        param string  database The database name or configuration in the  env file     param string  table    The table name        return mixed     public static function getAutoIncrementValue  database   table         database    env  DB DATABASE         return  DB  select           SELECT AUTO INCREMENT          FROM information schema TABLES          WHERE TABLE SCHEMA        env  DB DATABASE                 AND TABLE NAME         table             0 - gt AUTO INCREMENT      To call the method and get the MySql AUTO INCREMENT just use the following    auto increment    App Helpers Database  getAutoIncrementValue env  DB DATABASE     your table name      Hope it helps

Even though methai s answer is correct if you manually run the query  a problem occurs when 2 concurrent transaction connections actually execute this query at runtime in production  for instance    Just tried manually in MySQL workbench with 2 connections opened simultaneously   CREATE TABLE translation     id BIGINT PRIMARY KEY AUTO INCREMENT      Suppose we have already 20 entries  we execute 2 new inserts    Transaction 1   21   SELECT  AUTO INCREMENT  FROM INFORMATION SCHEMA TABLES      WHERE TABLE SCHEMA    DatabaseName  AND TABLE NAME    translation    insert into translation  id  values  21     Transaction 2   21   SELECT  AUTO INCREMENT  FROM INFORMATION SCHEMA TABLES      WHERE TABLE SCHEMA    DatabaseName  AND TABLE NAME    translation    insert into translation  id  values  21      commit transaction 1    commit transaction 2    Insert of transaction 1 is ok  Insert of transaction 2 goes in error  Error Code  1062  Duplicate entry  21  for key  PRIMARY    A good solution would be jvdub s answer because per transaction connection the 2 inserts will be   Transaction 1   insert into translation  id  values  null   21   SELECT LAST INSERT ID      Transaction 2   insert into translation  id  values  null   22   SELECT LAST INSERT ID       commit transaction 1    commit transaction 2    But we have to execute the last insert id   just after the insert  And we can reuse that id to be inserted in others tables where a foreign key is expected   Also  we cannot execute the 2 queries as following   insert into translation  id  values   SELECT AUTO INCREMENT FROM     information schema TABLES WHERE TABLE SCHEMA DATABASE       AND TABLE NAME  translation       because we actually are interested to grab reuse that ID in other table or to return

I believe you re looking for MySQL s LAST INSERT ID   function  If in the command line  simply run the following   LAST INSERT ID      You could also obtain this value through a SELECT query   SELECT LAST INSERT ID

If you just want to know the number  rather than get it in a query then you can use   SHOW CREATE TABLE tablename    You should see the auto increment at the bottom
