I have below table KEY_STATUS.
|| KEY || STATUS ||
| 0001 | FAILED |
| 0001 | COMPLETED |
| 0002 | FAILED |
| 0003 | COMPLETED |
| 0002 | FAILED |
| 0004 | STARTED |
I would like to select keys with only FAILED state. That means I will have to exclude 0001 as it has both FAILED and COMPLETED, also exclude 0003 as it has COMPLETED state.
Output should be
|| KEY || STATUS ||
| 0002 | FAILED |
What approach should I take in Oracle to achieve above?

Assuming only two possible values for status , eliminate all keys that has more than one row and filter for failed status
