WHEN TAG IN ('SELECT INTO')

EXECUTE PROCEDURE create_table_func();

but when execute select * into test11 from test_bak

[Err] ERROR: column "tg_table_name" does not exist

Answer 1

The special variable TG_TABLE_NAME is only supported in normal triggers, not in event triggers (there is not always an associated table!).

The documentation has a list of functions that can return context information in an event trigger.

You could use pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands() to get the information you need, but that only works in ddl_command_end event triggers. That should work for you; I don't see a reason why the trigger should not run at the end of the statement.
