The DROP SCHEDULES statement can be used to remove backup schedules or changefeed schedules.
When DROP SCHEDULES removes a full backup schedule, it removes the associated incremental backup schedule, if it exists.
Warning:
DROP SCHEDULE does not cancel any in-progress jobs started by the schedule. Before you drop a schedule, cancel any in-progress jobs first, as you will not be able to look up the job ID once the schedule is dropped.
Required privileges
The following users can drop a schedule:
- Members of the
adminrole. By default, therootuser belongs to theadminrole. - Owners of a backup schedule, i.e., the user that created the backup schedule.
- Owners of a changefeed schedule, i.e., the user that created the changefeed schedule.
