Most of the time insert returns only autoGenerated keys + default values generated by Exposed.

11/10/2018, 4:18 PMI would like the outcome of I were to query again using the generated ID.
For example, if I have a table with an auto generated id, name, and date of création, I'd like to insert a new entry with just the name and be able to get the entire model of id name and date back as they are auto generated. Is the only solution that I should be creating the values myself before inserting, if I don't want to do an insert and get and deal with potential failures?

If you use clientDefault then it’s possible to achieve values just after insert otherwise you should make additional select by id as not every DB has option to return values.
