ModifyPlan.prototype.select

ModifyPlan.prototype.select(
   columns as columnIdentifier[],
   [qualifier as String]
) as ModifyPlan

Summary

This call projects the specified columns from the current row set and / or applies a qualifier to the columns in the row set. Unlike SQL, a select call is not required in an Optic query.

Parameters

qualifier Specifies a name for qualifying the column names in place of the combination of the schema and view names. Use cases for the qualifier include self joins. Using an empty string removes all qualification from the column names.
