Hi Team,
I have 15 SQL's and each one is calculating the Metrics to be pulled up on. I need to create views in optimized Manner to have 4-5 Views Max. Having said i am getting error on duplicate columns on "Created_TS" timestamp column.
Created_TS & Ended_TS were two most mainly used columns for all SQL selects to pull metrics .

Code:

create or replace view `myview01`
as(
with call_volume as (
 select
distinct  DATE(connected_TS),
 DATE(ended_TS),
 count(call_id)  as call_volume
  from  Test_Call_Log_Table
  where Status <>  ''
  and connected_at is Not NULL
  and  ended_at is Not Null
  group by 1,2
  order by 1,2

),
va_volume as (
select
distinct  DATE(connected_TS),
DATE(ended_TS),
 count(call_id)  as call_volume,
 type 
  from   Test_Call_Log_Table
  where Status = Finished
  and  type  = 'VA'
  and connected_at is Not NULL
  and  ended_at is Not Null
  group by 1,2,4
  order by 1,2,4
)
select * from call_volume,  va_volume)
;


Code:

Error: VIEW has duplicates on connected_TS


Please advise how to come out of Duplicate issue and also how we can optimize views .Since columns will be different in each SQL of total 15 SQL's.

Please help.

Just to understand it, try to run your queries separately
Code:
. . . . . .
select * from call_volume
and
Code:
. . . . . . .
select * from va_volume


Review both results (or present them at this forum), then try to explain: what do you expect to receive from
Code:
. . . . . . . .
select * from call_volume,  va_volume

You can do Union for these two select queries in one view and get the results ..
Else define separate views as you want with unique names

My intention was, you to guess that you may need some explicit operation to deal with two of your views/tables. But Rohit has already pointed it to you, that UNION is needed…

P.S.
Your question is very similar to another one from yourself, where LEFT JOIN is needed rather than UNION. Here it’s not obvious: what you really need for this particular task?

Hi Rohit, Yes you are correct by the problem for the Union the number of columns should be equal , Some times number of columns will vary for my case.

If they vary then dummy out values for other selects where you don’t have to comply to UNION rules. This would still work .. and also add unique identifier for each select and use as needed .

The major point of this discussion is: this expression has no sense.
Code:
select * from call_volume,  va_volume
You need to understand: how exactly you need to deal with two (different!) tables/views in your particular case?
We here do not know your goal, and you did not clarify it for us.

What is your expected result when the results of two separate queries above are somehow combined?
