MySQL: Reset id column to auto increment from 1

reset_id_column.sql

-- your_table: The table to modify
-- id: The id field/column to reset

SET @num := 0;
UPDATE your_table SET id = @num := (@num+1);
ALTER TABLE your_table AUTO_INCREMENT =1;

Thank you so much for this solution. I scoured the internet for 2-3 hours and all the solutions I found only included "ALTER TABLE your_table AUTO_INCREMENT =1", which didn't work for me. The first two lines actually made it work for my project to reset my ID column. I am still learning MySQL as I am creating my own CRUD app.

Based off your code, I now have a "button" that resets all the ID numbers.

Gracias, me funciono perfectamente!.

thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot for you help syed !
