MySQLPostgreSQL example

Here is a real MySQL query and the PostgreSQL output Query Studio produces:

MySQL input
SELECT u.id, u.name, COUNT(o.id) AS orders
FROM users u
LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.user_id = u.id
WHERE u.created_at > '2024-01-01' AND u.active = 1
GROUP BY u.id, u.name
HAVING COUNT(o.id) > 3
ORDER BY orders DESC
LIMIT 10;
PostgreSQL output
SELECT
  u.id,
  u.name,
  COUNT(o.id) AS orders
FROM
  users u
  LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.user_id = u.id
WHERE
  u.created_at > '2024-01-01'
  AND u.active = 1
GROUP BY
  u.id,
  u.name
HAVING
  COUNT(o.id) > 3
ORDER BY
  orders DESC
LIMIT
  10;

What changes from MySQL to PostgreSQL

  • Identifier quoting is rewritten from backtick `identifiers` to double-quoted "identifiers".
  • Null-handling functions such as IFNULL() are mapped to COALESCE().
  • The result is re-indented and keyword-cased in PostgreSQL style so it's ready to paste and run.

How to convert MySQL to PostgreSQL

  1. Open the Query Studio editor and choose MySQL as the “From” dialect.
  2. Choose PostgreSQL as the “To” dialect.
  3. Paste your MySQL query and press Translate — copy the PostgreSQL result.

Try it with your own query

The editor is preloaded with MySQLPostgreSQL. You can also explain, format, validate and analyze the result.
