+.SH "NAME"
+ALTER_USER_MAPPING \- change the definition of a user mapping
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+ALTER USER MAPPING FOR { \fIuser_name\fR | USER | CURRENT_ROLE | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER | PUBLIC }

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBALTER USER MAPPING\fR
+changes the definition of a user mapping\&.
+.PP
+The owner of a foreign server can alter user mappings for that server for any user\&. Also, a user can alter a user mapping for their own user name if
+USAGE
+privilege on the server has been granted to the user\&.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+\fIuser_name\fR
+.RS 4
+User name of the mapping\&.
+CURRENT_ROLE,
+CURRENT_USER, and
+USER
+match the name of the current user\&.
+PUBLIC
+is used to match all present and future user names in the system\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIserver_name\fR
+.RS 4
+Server name of the user mapping\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+OPTIONS ( [ ADD | SET | DROP ] \fIoption\fR [\*(Aq\fIvalue\fR\*(Aq] [, \&.\&.\&. ] )
+.RS 4
+Change options for the user mapping\&. The new options override any previously specified options\&.
+ADD,
+SET, and
+DROP
+specify the action to be performed\&.
+ADD
+is assumed if no operation is explicitly specified\&. Option names must be unique; options are also validated by the server\*(Aqs foreign\-data wrapper\&.
+.RE
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+Change the password for user mapping
+bob, server
+foo:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+ALTER USER MAPPING FOR bob SERVER foo OPTIONS (SET password \*(Aqpublic\*(Aq);
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+\fBALTER USER MAPPING\fR
+conforms to ISO/IEC 9075\-9 (SQL/MED)\&. There is a subtle syntax issue: The standard omits the
+FOR
+key word\&. Since both
+CREATE USER MAPPING
+and
+DROP USER MAPPING
+use
+FOR
+in analogous positions, and IBM DB2 (being the other major SQL/MED implementation) also requires it for
+ALTER USER MAPPING, PostgreSQL diverges from the standard here in the interest of consistency and interoperability\&.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+CREATE USER MAPPING (\fBCREATE_USER_MAPPING\fR(7)), DROP USER MAPPING (\fBDROP_USER_MAPPING\fR(7))
