mysqli function to get the last inserted record or row id

The mysqli_insert_id() function returns the id (generated with AUTO_INCREMENT) used in the last query.
$last_id=mysqli_insert_id($con);

<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost","my_user","my_password","my_db");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
  echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}

mysqli_query($con,"INSERT INTO Persons (FirstName,LastName,Age) 
VALUES ('Glenn','Quagmire',33)");

// Print auto-generated id
echo "New record has id: " . mysqli_insert_id($con); 

mysqli_close($con);
?>
