Goal Find trigger names that are used in a database in more than one schema. Different things should have different names. But here different triggers have the same name. Also make sure that this is not a duplication.
Notes In case of the string_agg function, the line break (br) tag is used as a part of the separator for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser.
