This section is not intended to be a course of the SQL language. Therefore, the focus will be put on the minimal set of differences that you must know in order to write queries properly.

A pure JavaScript database

SQL Cloud is a 100% JavaScript database ruining on the browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox…) and any device (PC, tablet, mobile..). The full data model (tables, indexes, etc.) are created when the page is loaded and it is fully destroyed when the page is closed. The tables are empty and populated in real-time fetching data over the Atlassian’s Jira public REST API to answer the users' queries.

Please pay attention to the having condition: count(*) > 2

Code Block
languagesql
SELECT `i`.`KEY`as `Issue`, count(*) as `Num. comments`
FROM ISSUE `i`
LEFT JOIN ISSUECOMMENT `ic` ON `ic`.`ISSUEID` = `i`.`ID`
WHERE `i`.`JQL` = 'PROJECT = TALH'
GROUP BY `i`.`KEY`
HAVING count(*) > 2

Works!

In this query the condition has been modified to uses column aliases: `Num. comments` > 2

Code Block
SELECT `i`.`KEY`as `Issue`, count(*) as `Num. comments`
FROM ISSUE `i`
LEFT JOIN ISSUECOMMENT `ic` ON `ic`.`ISSUEID` = `i`.`ID`
WHERE `i`.`JQL` = 'PROJECT = TALH'
GROUP BY `i`.`KEY`
HAVING `Num. comments` > 2

Not works!
