SQL primary key is a field in a table that is used for uniquely identifying a row in a table. If the column has a primary key constraint, then it will contain unique values and will not able to contain any NULL values. A primary key length cannot exceed more than 900 bytes.

SQL PRIMARY KEY

SQL PRIMARY KEY constraint uniquely identifies each row in the table. Primary keys must contain UNIQUE values, and cannot contain the NULL values. The table can have only ONE primary key; and in the table, that primary key can consist of the single or multiple columns (fields).

A  table will contain only one primary key, which may consist of single or multiple fields, and when multiple fields are used as a primary key, then it is known as composite keys.

If the table has a primary key defined in any of the fields, then it cannot have two or more records having the same values.
