DROP SEQUENCE(7)	 PostgreSQL 17.5 Documentation	      DROP SEQUENCE(7)

NAME
       DROP_SEQUENCE - remove a	sequence

SYNOPSIS
       DROP SEQUENCE [ IF EXISTS ] name	[, ...]	[ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION
       DROP SEQUENCE removes sequence number generators. A sequence can	only
       be dropped by its owner or a superuser.

PARAMETERS
       IF EXISTS
	   Do not throw	an error if the	sequence does not exist. A notice is
	   issued in this case.

       name
	   The name (optionally	schema-qualified) of a sequence.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects that depend on the sequence, and in turn
	   all objects that depend on those objects (see Section 5.15).

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the sequence if any objects depend on	it. This is
	   the default.

EXAMPLES
       To remove the sequence serial:

	   DROP	SEQUENCE serial;

COMPATIBILITY
       DROP SEQUENCE conforms to the SQL standard, except that the standard
       only allows one sequence	to be dropped per command, and apart from the
       IF EXISTS option, which is a PostgreSQL extension.

SEE ALSO
       CREATE SEQUENCE (CREATE_SEQUENCE(7)), ALTER SEQUENCE
       (ALTER_SEQUENCE(7))
