Hi @niranjanchowdam,

You’ll need to run the following query in order to use the FUlltext function

ALTER TABLE `js_skills_achievements` ADD FULLTEXT('skill1','skill2','skill3','skill4');

As soon you ran this query to actually alter the table, you should actually be able to run your query without a problem

SELECT * FROM js_skills_achievements
WHERE MATCH(skill1,skill2,skill3,skill4) AGAINST ('java developer in niranjankumar chowdam');
