To create new records, use INSERT statements.

INSERT Syntax

The INSERT statement specifies the columns to be inserted and the new column values. You can specify the column values in a comma-separated list in the VALUES clause, as shown in the following example:

INSERT INTO <table_name> 
( <column_reference> [ , ... ] )
VALUES 
( { <expression> | NULL } [ , ... ] ) 
  

<expression> ::=
  | @ <parameter> 
  | ?
  | <literal>

You can use the ExecuteNonQuery method to execute data manipulation commands and retrieve the rows affected, as shown in the following example:

C#

String connectionString = "Database=MyCassandraDB;Port=9042;Server=127.0.0.1;";
using (CassandraConnection connection = new CassandraConnection(connectionString)) {
  int rowsAffected;
  CassandraCommand cmd = new CassandraCommand("INSERT INTO \"CData\".\"Sample\".Products (Name) VALUES ('John')", connection);
  rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As [String] = "Database=MyCassandraDB;Port=9042;Server=127.0.0.1;"
Using connection As New CassandraConnection(connectionString)
  Dim rowsAffected As Integer
  Dim cmd As New CassandraCommand("INSERT INTO \"CData\".\"Sample\".Products (Name) VALUES ('John')", connection)
  rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
End Using
