Use this AI prompt to automatically design one-to-many and many-to-many database relationships between entities, including relational mappings and foreign keys.
🧠 What This Prompt Does
This prompt helps developers design database relationships between entities in SQL or NoSQL systems.
It maps entities, keys, and relationships for normalized, scalable data design.
💬 The Prompt
You are a database architect.
Design database relationships for the following entities.
Requirements:
- Define one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-to-many relationships
- Include field names and keys
- Output both textual and visual (Mermaid ERD) format
Entities:
{{entities}}
⚙️ Example Input
{ "entities": "User, Post, Comment, and Tag" }
Relationships
- A User can have many Posts.
- A Post belongs to one User.
- A Post can have many Comments.

ER Diagram
erDiagram USER ||--o{ POST : writes POST ||--o{ COMMENT : has POST }o--o{ TAG : labeled
📘 When to Use This Prompt
- During database planning and normalization.
- For visualizing ER diagrams quickly.
- Before implementing relationships in Prisma or Mongoose.
💡 Best Practices
- Always identify cardinality before modeling.
- Normalize to avoid redundant data.
