This image shows how my raw table looks like:
Following are the conditions to get the transposed table from the image below:
- Each row has a unique id
- We only need columns for groups A,B,C in the group field and not others.
- There could be single or multiple id for group A for the same app id, I need to get those rows for which date is minimum.
- There could be single or multiple id for group B and C for the same app id, I need to get those rows for which date is maximum
The image below shows how my final table should look like:

add this to your query
WHERE `GROUP` IN ('A','B','C')
- There could be single or multiple id for group A for the same app id, I need to get those rows for which date is minimum.
add somewhere after the SELECT:
MIN(date) OVER (PARTIITON BY appid)
- There could be single or multiple id for group B and C for the same app id, I need to get those rows for which date is maximum
change the added option on point 3 to:
CASE WHEN `group` IN ('B','C')
THEN MAX(date) OVER (PARTIITON BY appid)
ELSE MIN(date) OVER (PARTIITON BY appid)
END
Maybe this helps you to try and take a serious request of solving this yourself (and learn from it) in stead of asking for a solution and then do copy/paste...
BTW: Naming fiels with reserved words, like GROUP
and DATE
is not a very smart thing to do. A better name for the column GROUP
might be CategoryGroup (or whatever this group is referring to)

I took a different approach to this. The SQL is longer but I think it's more auditable.
The main logic point is that I broke A and BC into 2 different subqueries, and used QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER()
to choose the correct row, based on either ASC
or DESC
per your requirements.
I know you are using mysql and this might not work since I don't have an instance to test this one, but here is the SQL I got from building this logic in Rasgo, which I tested on Snowflake and it worked.
-- This splits the data into group A only
WITH CTE_A AS (
SELECT
*
FROM
{{ your_table }}
WHERE
my_group = 'A'
),
-- This splits the data into group B and C only
CTE_B AS (
SELECT
*
FROM
{{ your_table }}
WHERE
my_group IN('B', 'C')
),
-- Selecting from A only, it keeps the most recent row ASCENDING
CTE_A_FIRST AS (
SELECT
*
FROM
CTE_A QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() OVER (
PARTITION BY APP_ID,
MY_GROUP
ORDER BY
MY_DATE ASC
) = 1
),
-- Selecting from A only, it keeps the most recent row DESCENDING
CTE_B_LAST AS (
SELECT
*
FROM
CTE_B QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() OVER (
PARTITION BY APP_ID,
MY_GROUP
ORDER BY
MY_DATE DESC
) = 1
),
-- Here we just union A and BC back to one another

I'll roll out my attempt along several steps and then show you the full solution made up of these steps, so that you can understand it piece by piece, given the following definition of your input table:
CREATE TABLE tab(
id INT,
app_id INT,
date VARCHAR(20),
group VARCHAR(20),
score1 INT,
score2 INT
);
STEP 1. Formatting date using a proper DATE
format ("YYYY-MM-DD"). For this purpose the function STR_TO_DATE
can come in handy.
WITH formatted_tab AS (
SELECT id,
app_id,
STR_TO_DATE(date, '%m/%d/%Y') AS date,
group,
score1,
score2
FROM tab
)
STEP 2. Extracting the useful dates according to the group
field. As long as you treat group "A" differently with respect to group "B" and "C" specifically, the idea here is to address each group with a different query, where
- in the former case the
MIN
aggregation function is applied, - in the latter case the
MAX
aggregation function is applied,
Then the two output result sets are combined with a UNION
operation.
(
SELECT app_id,
MIN(date) AS date,
group
FROM formatted_tab
WHERE group IN ('A')
GROUP BY app_id,
group
UNION
SELECT app_id,
MAX(date) AS date,
group
FROM formatted_tab
WHERE group IN ('B', 'C')
GROUP BY app_id,
group
) needed_dates
STEP 3. Getting back scores corresponding to group
and date
field. This is done with a simple INNER JOIN
between the last generated table and the formatted table.
(
SELECT needed_dates.*,
formatted_tab.score1,
formatted_tab.score2
FROM needed_dates
INNER JOIN formatted_tab
ON needed_dates.app_id = formatted_tab.app_id
AND needed_dates.date = formatted_tab.date
AND needed_dates.group = formatted_tab.group
) needed_infos
STEP 4. Pivoting the table exploiting MySQL tools like:
- the
IF
statement to retrieve the values corresponding to a specificgroup
- the
MAX
aggregation function, to aggregate on the samegroup
These tools are applied for each group you specified ('A', 'B' and 'C').
SELECT app_id,
MAX(IF(group='A', date , NULL)) AS date_groupA,
MAX(IF(group='B', date , NULL)) AS date_groupB,
MAX(IF(group='C', date , NULL)) AS date_groupC,
MAX(IF(group='A', score1, NULL)) AS score1_groupA,
MAX(IF(group='A', score2, NULL)) AS score2_groupA,
MAX(IF(group='B', score1, NULL)) AS score1_groupB,
MAX(IF(group='B', score2, NULL)) AS score2_groupB,
MAX(IF(group='C', score1, NULL)) AS score1_groupC,
MAX(IF(group='C', score2, NULL)) AS score2_groupC
FROM needed_infos
GROUP BY app_id
Full attempt. This is the combination of the previous snippets. The only difference is the presence of backticks for the field names, that avoid MySQL to misunderstand them with MySQL private keywords like "date" (indicating the DATE
type), "group" (use as keyword in the GROUP BY
clause) or similar.
WITH `formatted_tab` AS (
SELECT `id`,
`app_id`,
STR_TO_DATE(`date`, '%m/%d/%Y') AS `date`,
`group`,
`score1`,
`score2`
FROM `tab`
)
SELECT `app_id`,
MAX(IF(`group`='A', `date` , NULL)) AS date_groupA,
MAX(IF(`group`='B', `date` , NULL)) AS date_groupB,
MAX(IF(`group`='C', `date` , NULL)) AS date_groupC,
MAX(IF(`group`='A', `score1`, NULL)) AS score1_groupA,
MAX(IF(`group`='A', `score2`, NULL)) AS score2_groupA,
MAX(IF(`group`='B', `score1`, NULL)) AS score1_groupB,
MAX(IF(`group`='B', `score2`, NULL)) AS score2_groupB,
MAX(IF(`group`='C', `score1`, NULL)) AS score1_groupC,
MAX(IF(`group`='C', `score2`, NULL)) AS score2_groupC
FROM ( SELECT needed_dates.*,
formatted_tab.score1,
formatted_tab.score2
FROM ( SELECT `app_id`,
MIN(`date`) AS `date`,
`group`
FROM `formatted_tab`
WHERE `group` IN ('A')
GROUP BY `app_id`,
`group`
UNION
SELECT `app_id`,
MAX(`date`) AS `date`,
`group`
FROM `formatted_tab`
WHERE `group` IN ('B', 'C')
GROUP BY `app_id`,
`group`
) needed_dates
INNER JOIN formatted_tab
ON needed_dates.app_id = formatted_tab.app_id
AND needed_dates.date = formatted_tab.date
AND needed_dates.group = formatted_tab.group
) needed_infos
GROUP BY `app_id`
