Hi,

I hope I am posting on the right forum.  I googled but I can't find any solution pertaining to my problem.

Could someone know what is the syntext for last_insert_id() in Postgresql for me to insert into my sql execute query?

public int getTutorById() {
		openConnection();
		int tutor_id = 0;
		try {
			Statement stmt3 = connection.createStatement();
			ResultSet rs = stmt3.executeQuery("SELECT last_insert_id() from xtutor");
			{
				while (rs.next()) {
					tutor_id = rs.getInt(1);							
				}
			}
		} catch (SQLException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		return tutor_id;
	}

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: function last_insert_id() does not exist

The generated id is successfully generated by JDBC.

The errors when I tested in out using PGAdmin4 is 

ERROR:  function last_insert_id() does not exist
LINE 1: SELECT last_insert_id() from xtutor;
               ^
HINT:  No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.
SQL state: 42883
Character: 8

Postgresql 11, Windows 11

Thanks.
