Syntax error when trying to add columns to table in DBeaver (postgresql)












0















I've tried this a few different ways but every time I get a syntax error when trying to add columns to a table.



I'm new to databases so it's probably something basic that I'm doing wrong, but I just don't see why this isn't working.



Any input would be appreciated.



P.S. at the end of the query line there is a ";"... You just can't see it in the screenshot.



So far I've tried changing "add columns" to "add column" and just "add" followed by the columns. I'm aware I can just use the GUI to copy columns in DBeaver but I'd rather get this SQL working.
