COMMIT PREPARED(7) PostgreSQL 18.6 Documentation COMMIT PREPARED(7) NAME COMMIT_PREPARED - commit a transaction that was earlier prepared for two-phase commit SYNOPSIS COMMIT PREPARED transaction_id DESCRIPTION COMMIT PREPARED commits a transaction that is in prepared state. PARAMETERS transaction_id The transaction identifier of the transaction that is to be committed. NOTES To commit a prepared transaction, you must be either the same user that ex- ecuted the transaction originally, or a superuser. But you do not have to be in the same session that executed the transaction. This command cannot be executed inside a transaction block. The prepared transaction is committed immediately. All currently available prepared transactions are listed in the pg_pre- pared_xacts system view. EXAMPLES Commit the transaction identified by the transaction identifier foobar: COMMIT PREPARED 'foobar'; COMPATIBILITY COMMIT PREPARED is a PostgreSQL extension. It is intended for use by exter- nal transaction management systems, some of which are covered by standards (such as X/Open XA), but the SQL side of those systems is not standardized.
