PostgreSQL - Column name of a table is the name of a function

Question

There is a table in my database where on of the column names is called "end". End is a timestamp.

When I try to run a simple query such as:

select end
from driver_shift_log

I get a syntax error because it is interpreting end not as a column name, but as a SQL function. Any tips on the best way to fix this?

Answer 1

Try this way:

select "end"
from driver_shift_log
