Description:

Hello there
I'm not good enough in english, so have my excuse.

I don't undestand how Returning clause work when more than on row are
affected. i.e I have an update with 3 rows affected and I want to have then
to return to then front-end.
How I must do in same cases?

It doesn’t matter how many rows are affected, returning will return them all.
