How to Rename a Table in Snowflake
In the Snowflake, we use tables for storing the data. While creating a table we will give a name to that table. If we want to change that table name, we can do it. This blog discusses renaming the table.
Rename a Table in Snowflake
In Snowflake, by using the “ALTER TABLE .. RENAME TO” command we can rename the table.
Syntax:
alter_table old_table_name1 rename to new_table_name1;
alter_table sessions_db2 rename to sessions_db_3;
Conclusion
The “ALTER TABLE .. RENAME TO” changes the name of a table. I hope this article provides sufficient information about renaming the table.
