+.SH "NAME"
+REFRESH_MATERIALIZED_VIEW \- replace the contents of a materialized view
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW [ CONCURRENTLY ] \fIname\fR
+ [ WITH [ NO ] DATA ]
+.fi
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBREFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
+completely replaces the contents of a materialized view\&. To execute this command you must be the owner of the materialized view\&. The old contents are discarded\&. If
+WITH DATA
+is specified (or defaults) the backing query is executed to provide the new data, and the materialized view is left in a scannable state\&. If
+WITH NO DATA
+is specified no new data is generated and the materialized view is left in an unscannable state\&.
+.PP
+CONCURRENTLY
+and
+WITH NO DATA
+may not be specified together\&.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+CONCURRENTLY
+.RS 4
+Refresh the materialized view without locking out concurrent selects on the materialized view\&. Without this option a refresh which affects a lot of rows will tend to use fewer resources and complete more quickly, but could block other connections which are trying to read from the materialized view\&. This option may be faster in cases where a small number of rows are affected\&.
+.sp
+This option is only allowed if there is at least one
+UNIQUE
+index on the materialized view which uses only column names and includes all rows; that is, it must not be an expression index or include a
+WHERE
+clause\&.
+.sp
+This option may not be used when the materialized view is not already populated\&.
+.sp
+Even with this option only one
+REFRESH
+at a time may run against any one materialized view\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIname\fR
+.RS 4
+The name (optionally schema\-qualified) of the materialized view to refresh\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+If there is an
+ORDER BY
+clause in the materialized view\*(Aqs defining query, the original contents of the materialized view will be ordered that way; but
+\fBREFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
+does not guarantee to preserve that ordering\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+This command will replace the contents of the materialized view called
+order_summary
+using the query from the materialized view\*(Aqs definition, and leave it in a scannable state:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW order_summary;
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+This command will free storage associated with the materialized view
+annual_statistics_basis
+and leave it in an unscannable state:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW annual_statistics_basis WITH NO DATA;
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+\fBREFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
+is a
+PostgreSQL
+extension\&.
