Information Schema

On this page

CockroachDB provides a virtual schema called information_schema that contains information about your database's tables, columns, indexes, and views. This information can be used for introspection and reflection.

The definition of information_schema is part of the SQL standard and can therefore be relied on to remain stable over time. This contrasts with CockroachDB's SHOW statements, which provide similar data and are meant to be stable in CockroachDB but not standardized. It also contrasts with the virtual schema crdb_internal, which reflects the internals of CockroachDB and may thus change across CockroachDB versions.

Note:

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 the root user.

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.

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:
