Select Into Insert question

Hi. I have the following query:

            db.Scenarios.Where(a => a.Id == id)
                .Into(db.Scenarios)
                .Value(s => s.Name, name)
                .Value(s => s.Value, s => s.Value)
                .Insert();

Is it possible to perform insert of the selected entry modifying only some of it’s properties and allowing all the others to be copied automatically? Right now I have to list ALL the properties to copy the entry. Or may be there’s a better way to copy an entry in the same table modifying only some props?

Also I want to be able to fetch new entry ID from:

            db.Scenarios.Where(a => a.Id == id)
                .Into(db.Scenarios)
                .Value(s => s.Name, name)
                .Value(s => s.Value, s => s.Value)
                .InsertWithInt64Identity();

But it throws an exception ORA-00933: sql command not properly ended. Is there any work around?

Generated query:

DECLARE @Name Varchar2(9) -- String
SET     @Name = 'COPY'
DECLARE @id Int64
SET     @id = 61
DECLARE @IDENTITY_PARAMETER Decimal
SET     @IDENTITY_PARAMETER = NULL

INSERT INTO SCENARIOS
(
	NAME,
	VALUE
)
SELECT
	:Name,
	a.VALUE
FROM
	SCENARIOS a
WHERE
	a.ID = :id
RETURNING 
	ID INTO :IDENTITY_PARAMETER

oracle doesn’t support returning/output clause so it is expected for InsertWith*Identity API to generate unsupported sql. If you have an idea how oracle-compatible sql should look here - we could fix it

Sad but true. The only workaround I’ve found so far: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49195453/alternative-to-returning-with-insert-select

Maybe something similar #2831

Thanks, this is interesting feature to keep in mind but won’t help with the current issue 😃
