Creating a staging table when the target table has autoincrement Is it possible to create a staging table when the target table has an autoincrement ID key, and then merge it back in?

I've attempted this:

 CREATE  TEMP TABLE stage (like target);


insert
into
    stage
    (colA, colB, colC) 


Where the target table has an autoincrement column id.  When I run this script, I get back the following error:

[Amazon](500310) Invalid operation: Cannot insert a NULL value into column id
Details: 
 -----------------------------------------------
  error:  Cannot insert a NULL value into column id
  code:      8007
  context:   query execution
  query:     896442
  location:  column:1
  process:   query1_51 [pid=15458]
  -----------------------------------------------;
What I ended up doing was creating a staging table without using LIKE TARGET, from there I created a few queries to see what values were in the staging table vs the target table.  I then inserted those values into the target table, and dropped the staging table.

Thanks to @SqlZim for the help in tuning the query.
