Insert Into Table
To fill a table in MySQL, use the “INSERT INTO” statement.
Example
Insert a record in the “customers” table:
import mysql.connector
mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="yourusername",
password="yourpassword",
database="mydatabase"
)
mycursor = mydb.cursor()
sql = "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (%s, %s)"
val = ("John", "Highway 21")
mycursor.execute(sql, val)
mydb.commit()
print(mycursor.rowcount, "record inserted.")
Important!: Notice the statement: mydb.commit(). It is required to make the changes, otherwise no changes are made to the table.
