An identity column is a column associated with an internal sequence generator and has it value automatically set when omitted in an INSERT statement.
Example:
create table objects (
id integer generated by default as identity primary key,
name varchar(15)
);insert into objects (name) values (‘Table’);
insert into objects (name) values (‘Book’);
insert into objects (id, name) values (10, ‘Computer’);select * from objects;
ID NAME
