Extract data from a historical table keeps only data with changes

I have a table like this

enter image description here

and here is the log table

enter image description here

So as you understood, my main table contains data from a source every day. But keeps only those with changes. Thus if everyday if 100k records comming normally, but very few (<100) are really has some changes. Thus my table tracks all the records using the log ID

So when I required to extract latest data or for any date this query works well

enter image description here

So if I specify a date instead of max, I can get that days data. there is no issue.

But I have got one more requirement. Instead of date if I specify LogId, how can I achieve the same using logId.

I know I can work it using getting the Date corresponding to a log Id and supply it to my above query. But I am trying to get the same in a better way using LogId. Please help

Here is the fiddle

Answer

Were you attempting to do this?

Note: We don’t need MAX if logid is unique in logs.
