Hello David,

Try this.

This is an exemple of your table.
SELECT * 
  FROM (VALUES (1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 4), (4, 1)) t (id1id2)
  
id1   |id2   |
------+------+
     1|     2|
     2|     1|
     3|     4|
     4|     1|      
     

I think that is what you need
SELECT DISTINCT LEAST(id1id2AS id1GREATEST(id1id2AS id2
  FROM (VALUES (1, 2), (2, 1), (3, 4), (4, 3)) t (id1id2)

id1   |id2   |
------+------+
     1|     2|
     3|     4|

Regards,


William Alves

There are pair ids.  Each pair is repeated.

How to only select 1 unique pair for each?
