STRING_AGG() OVER ...

All functions > WINDOW FUNCTION > STRING_AGG() OVER ...

Concatenates string values in the window frame in order up to the current row, separated by the delimiter.

Syntax

STRING_AGG(expr, delimiter) [FILTER (WHERE condition) | WITHIN (WHERE condition)] OVER ([PARTITION BY expr [, ...]] [ORDER BY sort_item [, ...]] [ROWS|RANGE|GROUPS frame])

Notes

  • SQL translation is implemented only when the current SQL backend is DuckDB
  • Requires a well-defined window (ORDER BY, and optionally PARTITION BY and frame)
  • NULL values are ignored where the underlying window aggregate skips NULLs

SELECT
    -- Running string concatenation with a delimiter that avoids commas inside elements
    f1 := ZIP(
        ARRAY(1, 2, 3, 4) AS id,
        ARRAY(30, 10, 20, 5) AS v,
        ARRAY('a', 'b', 'c', 'd') AS s
    ).TRANSFORM(SELECT STRING_AGG(s, '|') OVER (ORDER BY id ASC)).UNWRAP(),
    -- Running concatenation counting only rows where v > 15 (10 and 5 excluded from the frame)
    f2 := ZIP(
        ARRAY(1, 2, 3, 4) AS id,
        ARRAY(30, 10, 20, 5) AS v,
        ARRAY('a', 'b', 'c', 'd') AS s
    ).TRANSFORM(
        SELECT STRING_AGG(s, '|') FILTER (WHERE v > 15) OVER (ORDER BY id ASC)
    ).UNWRAP()
;
Result
