Android Room - Get the id of new inserted row with auto-generate
This is how I am inserting data into database using Room Persistence Library: Entity: @Entity class User { @PrimaryKey(autoGenerate = true) public int id; //... } Data access object: @Dao public interface UserDao{ @Insert(onConflict = IGNORE) void insertUser(User user); //... } Is it possible to return the id of User once the insertion is completed in the above method itself without writing a separate select query? Based on the documentation here (below the code snippet) A method annotated with the @Insert annotation can return: long for single insert operation long[] or Long[] or List<Long>
