Warning:

As of November 18, 2022, CockroachDB v21.1 is no longer supported. For more details, refer to the Release Support Policy.

The information_schema system catalog contains information about your database's tables, columns, indexes, and views. This information can be used for introspection and reflection.

Data exposed by `information_schema`

To perform introspection on objects, you can either read from the related information_schema table or use one of CockroachDB's SHOW statements. information_schema tables are read-only.

Object	`information_schema` Table	Corresponding `SHOW` Statement
Columns	`columns`	`SHOW COLUMNS`
Constraints	`check_constraints`, `key_column_usage`, `referential_constraints`, `table_constraints`	`SHOW CONSTRAINTS`
Databases	`schemata`	`SHOW DATABASE`
Indexes	`statistics`	`SHOW INDEX`
Privileges	`schema_privileges`, `table_privileges`	`SHOW GRANTS`
Roles	`role_table_grants`	`SHOW ROLES`
Sequences	`sequences`	`SHOW CREATE SEQUENCE`
Tables	`tables`	`SHOW TABLES`
Views	`tables`, `views`	`SHOW CREATE`

Tables in `information_schema`

The virtual schema information_schema contains virtual tables, also called "system views," representing the database's objects, each of which is detailed below.

These differ from regular SQL views in that they are not showing data created from the content of other tables. Instead, CockroachDB generates the data for virtual tables when they are accessed.

Currently, there are some information_schema tables that are empty but provided for compatibility:

routines
parameters

Note:

A query can specify a table name without a database name (e.g., SELECT * FROM information_schema.sequences). See Name Resolution for more information.

Tip:

The virtual tables in information_schema contain useful comments with links to further documentation. To view these comments, use SHOW TABLES FROM information_schema WITH COMMENT:

Querying `information_schema` tables

You can run SELECT queries on the tables in information_schema.

Tip:

The information_schema views typically represent objects that the current user has privilege to access. To ensure you can view all the objects in a database, access it as a user with admin privileges.

Note:

Unless specified otherwise, queries to information_schema assume the current database.

For example, to retrieve all columns from the table_constraints table:

> SELECT * FROM movr.information_schema.table_constraints;

  constraint_catalog | constraint_schema |       constraint_name        | table_catalog | table_schema |         table_name         | constraint_type | is_deferrable | initially_deferred
---------------------+-------------------+------------------------------+---------------+--------------+----------------------------+-----------------+---------------+---------------------
  movr               | public            | primary                      | movr          | public       | users                      | PRIMARY KEY     | NO            | NO
  movr               | public            | 3426283741_53_1_not_null     | movr          | public       | users                      | CHECK           | NO            | NO
  movr               | public            | 3426283741_53_2_not_null     | movr          | public       | users                      | CHECK           | NO            | NO
  movr               | public            | primary                      | movr          | public       | vehicles                   | PRIMARY KEY     | NO            | NO
...
(25 rows)

And to retrieve specific columns from the table_constraints table:
