And what I really like about it is the way you can make a guess about the
table name and use * .

postgres-# \d mt*
Table "public.mt1"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
id | integer |

Table "public.mt2"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
id | integer |

Table "public.mt3"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
id | integer |

Hi,

To get column names only

select column_name from information_schema.columns where
table_name='captor_prime_aggregates';
