ALTER SCHEMA(7)		 PostgreSQL 17.5 Documentation	       ALTER SCHEMA(7)

NAME
       ALTER_SCHEMA - change the definition of a schema

SYNOPSIS
       ALTER SCHEMA name RENAME	TO new_name
       ALTER SCHEMA name OWNER TO { new_owner |	CURRENT_ROLE | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER }

DESCRIPTION
       ALTER SCHEMA changes the	definition of a	schema.

       You must	own the	schema to use ALTER SCHEMA. To rename a	schema you
       must also have the CREATE privilege for the database. To	alter the
       owner, you must be able to SET ROLE to the new owning role, and that
       role must have the CREATE privilege for the database. (Note that
       superusers have all these privileges automatically.)

PARAMETERS
       name
	   The name of an existing schema.

       new_name
	   The new name	of the schema. The new name cannot begin with pg_, as
	   such	names are reserved for system schemas.

       new_owner
	   The new owner of the	schema.

COMPATIBILITY
       There is	no ALTER SCHEMA	statement in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO
       CREATE SCHEMA (CREATE_SCHEMA(7)), DROP SCHEMA (DROP_SCHEMA(7))
