PHP MySQL Get Last Inserted ID

This document provides examples of how to get the ID of the last inserted record in a MySQL database table using PHP. It shows how to retrieve the insert ID immediately after an INSERT or UPDATE statement using MySQLi and PDO. The examples create a table with an AUTO_INCREMENT primary key, perform an INSERT, and then get the last insert ID to display the auto-generated ID number.

Get ID of The Last Inserted Record


If we perform an INSERT or UPDATE on a table with an AUTO_INCREMENT field, we can get the ID
of the last inserted/updated record immediately.

In the table "MyGuests", the "id" column is an AUTO_INCREMENT field:

CREATE TABLE MyGuests (


id INT(6) UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
firstname VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
lastname VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
email VARCHAR(50),
reg_date TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
)

The following examples are equal to the examples from the previous page (PHP Insert Data Into
MySQL), except that we have added one single line of code to retrieve the ID of the last inserted
record. We also echo the last inserted ID:

Example (MySQLi Object-oriented)

<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";

$password = "password";

$dbname = "myDB";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
  die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}

$sql = "INSERT INTO MyGuests (firstname, lastname, email)


VALUES ('John', 'Doe', 'john@example.com')";

if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {


  $last_id = $conn->insert_id;
  echo "New record created successfully. Last inserted ID is: " .
$last_id;
} else {
  echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
}

$conn->close();
?>

Example (MySQLi Procedural)

<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";

// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
  die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

$sql = "INSERT INTO MyGuests (firstname, lastname, email)


VALUES ('John', 'Doe', 'john@example.com')";

if (mysqli_query($conn, $sql)) {
  $last_id = mysqli_insert_id($conn);
  echo "New record created successfully. Last inserted ID is: " .
$last_id;
} else {
  echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . mysqli_error($conn);
}

mysqli_close($conn);
?>

Example (PDO)

<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDBPDO";

try {
  $conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$dbname",
$username, $password);
  // set the PDO error mode to exception
  $conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

  $sql = "INSERT INTO MyGuests (firstname, lastname, email)
 
  VALUES ('John', 'Doe', 'john@example.com')";
  // use exec() because no results are returned
  $conn->exec($sql);
  $last_id = $conn->lastInsertId();
  echo "New record created successfully. Last inserted ID is: " .
$last_id;
} catch(PDOException $e) {
  echo $sql . "<br>" . $e->getMessage();
}

$conn = null;
?>
