DROP POLICY
DROP POLICY [ IF EXISTS ] name ON table_name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
Description
DROP POLICY removes the specified policy from the table.
Note that if the last policy is removed for a table and the table still has row-level security enabled via ALTER TABLE, then the default-deny policy will be used. ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY can be used to disable row-level security for a table, whether policies for the table exist or not.
Parameters
- `IF EXISTS`
Do not throw an error if the policy does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.
- *name*
The name of the policy to drop.
- *table_name*
The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the table that the policy is on.
- `CASCADE`; `RESTRICT`
These key words do not have any effect, since there are no dependencies on policies.
Examples
To drop the policy called p1 on the table named my_table:
DROP POLICY p1 ON my_table;
Compatibility
DROP POLICY is a PostgreSQL extension.
