SYNOPSIS

ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name REFRESH PUBLICATION [ WITH ( refresh_option [= value] [, ... ] ) ]
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name ENABLE

ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name SET ( subscription_parameter [= value] [, ... ] )
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name OWNER TO { new_owner | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER }
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name RENAME TO new_name
DESCRIPTION
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION can change most of the subscription properties that
can be specified in CREATE SUBSCRIPTION (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)).
You must own the subscription to use ALTER SUBSCRIPTION. To alter the
owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning
role. The new owner has to be a superuser. (Currently, all subscription
owners must be superusers, so the owner checks will be bypassed in
practice. But this might change in the future.)
PARAMETERS
name
The name of a subscription whose properties are to be altered.
CONNECTION 'conninfo'
This clause alters the connection property originally set by CREATE
SUBSCRIPTION (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)). See there for more
information.
SET PUBLICATION publication_name
Changes list of subscribed publications. See CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
(CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)) for more information. By default this
command will also act like REFRESH PUBLICATION.
set_publication_option specifies additional options for this
operation. The supported options are:
refresh (boolean)
When false, the command will not try to refresh table
information. REFRESH PUBLICATION should then be executed
separately. The default is true.
Additionally, refresh options as described under REFRESH
PUBLICATION may be specified.
REFRESH PUBLICATION
Fetch missing table information from publisher. This will start
replication of tables that were added to the subscribed-to
publications since the last invocation of REFRESH PUBLICATION or
since CREATE SUBSCRIPTION.
refresh_option specifies additional options for the refresh
operation. The supported options are:
copy_data (boolean)
Specifies whether the existing data in the publications that
are being subscribed to should be copied once the replication
starts. The default is true.
ENABLE
Enables the previously disabled subscription, starting the logical
replication worker at the end of transaction.
DISABLE
Disables the running subscription, stopping the logical replication
worker at the end of transaction.
SET ( subscription_parameter [= value] [, ... ] )
This clause alters parameters originally set by CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
(CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)). See there for more information. The
allowed options are slot_name and synchronous_commit
new_owner
The user name of the new owner of the subscription.
new_name
The new name for the subscription.
EXAMPLES
Change the publication subscribed by a subscription to insert_only:
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub SET PUBLICATION insert_only;
Disable (stop) the subscription:
ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub DISABLE;
COMPATIBILITY
