Mysql- update row from one table based on distinct value from another table












1














I have a table Users which has a column MemberID
There is another table called UserMembers, this table have for same users multiple MemberID's.
Now, I need to populate the Users table MemberID with only 1 value from UserMembers table, so if it has 3 value I want the minimum value.
I tried



UPDATE Users 
SET MemberID = (SELECT DISTINCT m.MemberID FROM UserMembers
um INNER join Users u on um.UserID = u.UserID
ORDER BY um.CreatedDT ASC LIMIT 1);


But this is not the right query. Any help would be appreciated

          In a Derived Table, you can get the minimum value of MemberID for every UserID from the UserMembers table. Join this to the Users table using UserID, and set this minimum value in the Users table.



          UPDATE Users AS u
          JOIN
          (SELECT UserID, MIN(MemberID) AS minMemberID
          FROM UserMembers
          GROUP BY UserID
          ) AS dt
          ON dt.UserID = u.UserID
          SET u.MemberID = dt.minMemberID
