The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 18962 Logged by: Sundar Mudupalli Email address: sundar@mudupalli.com PostgreSQL version: 17.5 Operating system: Ubuntu I believe (using a Cloud SQL instance in GC Description: Take the following table definitions: ``` create table public.test_table_1 as SELECT 'AA'::character(2) AS text_type UNION ALL SELECT 'BB'::character(2) AS text_type UNION ALL SELECT 'CC'::TEXT AS text_type ; create table public.test_table_2 ( char_fixed character, char_fixed_len character(5), char_var character varying(5), text_column text ); ``` Based on the [type conversion rules for Union](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/typeconv-union-case.html), the column `text_type` in `test_table_1` should resolve to the postgres data type `TEXT`. However running the following query produces the following: ``` select table_name, column_name, data_type, character_maximum_length from information_schema.columns where table_name like 'test_table_%' order by table_name; table_name | column_name | data_type | character_maximum_length --------------+----------------+-------------------+-------------------------- test_table_1 | text_type | character | test_table_2 | char_fixed | character | 1 test_table_2 | char_fixed_len | character | 5 test_table_2 | char_var | character varying | 5 test_table_2 | text_column | text | (5 rows) ``` The data type for text says `character` (fixed length character string) of undetermined length, when it should really be of type `text` as the column `text_column` in `test_table_2`.
