Insert Into Table Variable CTE

Question

How to insert the results of a cte into a table variable

Something like this?

DECLARE
       @myData TABLE( 
                        Title nvarchar(350)          


        

Answer 1

On my SQL2019 edition, the above construct yield no fields inserted. Even worse, if I wanted to use UPDATE after the statement, gave a syntax error.

Instead, this construct was working also in a stored procedure:

; WITH CTE AS (
  select ...
  UNION ALL
  select ...
)
insert into @tableVariable(fields..) (select field... from CTE)

Hope somebody will make use of this.
