You cant just add "contact" , while doing parent to child query you need to use the relationship name to query it. In this case it should be "Contacts"

It’s throws an Error because it may be possible that you miss to define accountId in your code.

Create a List<Id> accountid = new List<Id>() ; which contains Account Id based on which you want to filter account.


Please mark it as best solution to your problem if it does solve your problem.

Hi Bayya,

you need to assign assign id for that variable before using that.

eg,

List<Id> accountid = new List<Id>() ;
for(Account a : [select id from Account]
{
accountid.add(a.id);
}

List<Account> accList = [Select id,name, (Select id  from Contacts) from Account where id =:accountid];

Mark this as best answer if its helps.

Thanks.
