Обсуждение: how to insert multiple rows and get the ids back in a temp table (pgplsql)?
how can I do the following in plpgsql?
insert multiple rows in a table
get the ids (serial) into a temp table (not the client)
for one row it will be like this
insert into mytable(mycolumn)values(123)returning id into some_variable;
now for multiple rows (using insert select) it will be like
insert into mytable(mycolumn)
select other_column from other_table
returning id into ???

No I do need it inside pgplsql. I need pgplsql for other stuff.

You can do that for multiple rows just fine, you don't even need plpgsql for that:
development=> \d test
Table "public.test"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
i | integer |
development=> INSERT INTO test (i) select x from generate_series(4, 10) t(x) ret
urning i;
i
----
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
(7 rows)
INSERT 0 7

If you can't see the forest for the trees,
cut the trees and you'll see there is no forest.

Any solution without cursors perhaps?

for temprec in insert into table (x) select y from z returning id loop
insert into temp teable (q) values (temprec.id);
end loop;
