   <code class="command">CREATE SUBSCRIPTION</code> adds a new logical-replication
   subscription.  The user that creates a subscription becomes the owner
   of the subscription. The subscription name must be distinct from the name of
   any existing subscription in the current database.
  </p><p>
   A subscription represents a replication connection to the publisher.
   Hence, in addition to adding definitions in the local catalogs, this
   command normally creates a replication slot on the publisher.
  </p><p>
   A logical replication worker will be started to replicate data for the new
   subscription at the commit of the transaction where this command is run,
   unless the subscription is initially disabled.

   To be able to create a subscription, you must have the privileges of the
   the <code class="literal">pg_create_subscription</code> role, as well as
   <code class="literal">CREATE</code> privileges on the current database.

          Specifies whether the <code class="command">CREATE SUBSCRIPTION</code>
          command should connect to the publisher at all.  The default
          is <code class="literal">true</code>.  Setting this to
          <code class="literal">false</code> will force the values of
          <code class="literal">create_slot</code>, <code class="literal">enabled</code> and
          <code class="literal">copy_data</code> to <code class="literal">false</code>.

          Setting <code class="literal">slot_name</code> to <code class="literal">NONE</code>
          means there will be no replication slot associated with the

      The following parameters control the subscription's replication
      behavior after it has been created:

      </p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt id="SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-BINARY"><span class="term"><code class="literal">binary</code> (<code class="type">boolean</code>)</span> <a href="#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-BINARY" class="id_link">#</a></dt><dd><p>
          Specifies whether the subscription will request the publisher to send
          the data in binary format (as opposed to text). The default is
          <code class="literal">false</code>. Any initial table synchronization copy
          (see <code class="literal">copy_data</code>) also uses the same format. Binary
          format can be faster than the text format, but it is less portable
          across machine architectures and <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>
          versions. Binary format is very data type specific; for example, it
          will not allow copying from a <code class="type">smallint</code> column to an
          <code class="type">integer</code> column, even though that would work fine in text
          format. Even when this option is enabled, only data types having binary
          send and receive functions will be transferred in binary. Note that
          the initial synchronization requires all data types to have binary
          send and receive functions, otherwise the synchronization will fail
          (see <a class="xref" href="sql-createtype.html" title="CREATE TYPE"><span class="refentrytitle">CREATE TYPE</span></a> for more about send/receive
          functions).
         </p><p>
          When doing cross-version replication, it could be that the
          publisher has a binary send function for some data type, but the
          subscriber lacks a binary receive function for that type.  In
          such a case, data transfer will fail, and
          the <code class="literal">binary</code> option cannot be used.
         </p><p>
          If the publisher is a <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> version
          before 16, then any initial table synchronization will use text format
          even if <code class="literal">binary = true</code>.
         </p></dd><dt id="SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-COPY-DATA"><span class="term"><code class="literal">copy_data</code> (<code class="type">boolean</code>)</span> <a href="#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-COPY-DATA" class="id_link">#</a></dt><dd><p>
          Specifies whether to copy pre-existing data in the publications
          that are being subscribed to when the replication starts.
          The default is <code class="literal">true</code>.
         </p><p>
          If the publications contain <code class="literal">WHERE</code> clauses, it
          will affect what data is copied. Refer to the
          <a class="xref" href="sql-createsubscription.html#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-NOTES" title="Notes">Notes</a> for details.
         </p><p>

          <code class="literal">origin</code> parameter.
         </p></dd><dt id="SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-STREAMING"><span class="term"><code class="literal">streaming</code> (<code class="type">enum</code>)</span> <a href="#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-STREAMING" class="id_link">#</a></dt><dd><p>
          Specifies whether to enable streaming of in-progress transactions
          for this subscription.  The default value is <code class="literal">off</code>,
          meaning all transactions are fully decoded on the publisher and only
          then sent to the subscriber as a whole.
         </p><p>
          If set to <code class="literal">on</code>, the incoming changes are written to
          temporary files and then applied only after the transaction is
          committed on the publisher and received by the subscriber.
         </p><p>
          If set to <code class="literal">parallel</code>, incoming changes are directly
          applied via one of the parallel apply workers, if available. If no
          parallel apply worker is free to handle streaming transactions then
          the changes are written to temporary files and applied after the
          transaction is committed. Note that if an error happens in a
          parallel apply worker, the finish LSN of the remote transaction
          might not be reported in the server log.
         </p></dd><dt id="SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-SYNCHRONOUS-COMMIT"><span class="term"><code class="literal">synchronous_commit</code> (<code class="type">enum</code>)</span> <a href="#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-SYNCHRONOUS-COMMIT" class="id_link">#</a></dt><dd><p>
          The value of this parameter overrides the
          <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-wal.html#GUC-SYNCHRONOUS-COMMIT">synchronous_commit</a> setting within this
          subscription's apply worker processes.  The default value
          is <code class="literal">off</code>.
         </p><p>
          It is safe to use <code class="literal">off</code> for logical replication:
          If the subscriber loses transactions because of missing
          synchronization, the data will be sent again from the publisher.
         </p><p>
          A different setting might be appropriate when doing synchronous
          logical replication.  The logical replication workers report the
          positions of writes and flushes to the publisher, and when using
          synchronous replication, the publisher will wait for the actual
          flush.  This means that setting
          <code class="literal">synchronous_commit</code> for the subscriber to
          <code class="literal">off</code> when the subscription is used for
          synchronous replication might increase the latency for
          <code class="command">COMMIT</code> on the publisher.  In this scenario, it
          can be advantageous to set <code class="literal">synchronous_commit</code>
          to <code class="literal">local</code> or higher.
         </p></dd><dt id="SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-TWO-PHASE"><span class="term"><code class="literal">two_phase</code> (<code class="type">boolean</code>)</span> <a href="#SQL-CREATESUBSCRIPTION-WITH-TWO-PHASE" class="id_link">#</a></dt><dd><p>
          Specifies whether two-phase commit is enabled for this subscription.
          The default is <code class="literal">false</code>.
         </p><p>
          When two-phase commit is enabled, prepared transactions are sent
          to the subscriber at the time of <code class="command">PREPARE
          TRANSACTION</code>, and are processed as two-phase
          transactions on the subscriber too.  Otherwise, prepared
          transactions are sent to the subscriber only when committed, and
          are then processed immediately by the subscriber.
         </p><p>
          The implementation of two-phase commit requires that replication
          has successfully finished the initial table synchronization
          phase. So even when <code class="literal">two_phase</code> is enabled for a
          subscription, the internal two-phase state remains
          temporarily <span class="quote"><span class="quote">pending</span></span> until the initialization phase
          completes. See column <code class="structfield">subtwophasestate</code>
          of <a class="link" href="catalog-pg-subscription.html" title="53.54. pg_subscription"><code class="structname">pg_subscription</code></a>

          Specifies whether the subscription should be automatically disabled
          if any errors are detected by subscription workers during data
          replication from the publisher. The default is

          If set to <code class="literal">true</code>, connections to the publisher made
          as a result of this subscription must use password authentication
          and the password must be specified as a part of the connection
          string. This setting is ignored when the subscription is owned by a
          superuser.  The default is <code class="literal">true</code>. Only superusers
          can set this value to <code class="literal">false</code>.

          If true, all replication actions are performed as the subscription
          owner. If false, replication workers will perform actions on each
          table as the owner of that table. The latter configuration is
          generally much more secure; for details, see

   See <a class="xref" href="logical-replication-security.html" title="31.9. Security">Section 31.9</a> for details on
   how to configure access control between the subscription and the
   publication instance.
  </p><p>
   When creating a replication slot (the default behavior), <code class="command">CREATE
   SUBSCRIPTION</code> cannot be executed inside a transaction block.
  </p><p>
   Creating a subscription that connects to the same database cluster (for
   example, to replicate between databases in the same cluster or to replicate
   within the same database) will only succeed if the replication slot is not
   created as part of the same command.  Otherwise, the <code class="command">CREATE
   SUBSCRIPTION</code> call will hang.  To make this work, create the
   replication slot separately (using the
   function <code class="function">pg_create_logical_replication_slot</code> with the
   plugin name <code class="literal">pgoutput</code>) and create the subscription using
   the parameter <code class="literal">create_slot = false</code>.  See
   <a class="xref" href="logical-replication-subscription.html#LOGICAL-REPLICATION-SUBSCRIPTION-EXAMPLES-DEFERRED-SLOT" title="31.2.3. Examples: Deferred Replication Slot Creation">Section 31.2.3</a>
   for examples. This is an implementation restriction that might be lifted in a
   future release.
  </p><p>
   If any table in the publication has a <code class="literal">WHERE</code> clause, rows
   for which the <em class="replaceable"><code>expression</code></em>
   evaluates to false or null will not be published. If the subscription has
   several publications in which the same table has been published with
   different <code class="literal">WHERE</code> clauses, a row will be published if any
   of the expressions (referring to that publish operation) are satisfied. In
   the case of different <code class="literal">WHERE</code> clauses, if one of the
   publications has no <code class="literal">WHERE</code> clause (referring to that
   publish operation) or the publication is declared as
   <a class="link" href="sql-createpublication.html#SQL-CREATEPUBLICATION-FOR-ALL-TABLES"><code class="literal">FOR ALL TABLES</code></a>
   or <a class="link" href="sql-createpublication.html#SQL-CREATEPUBLICATION-FOR-TABLES-IN-SCHEMA"><code class="literal">FOR TABLES IN SCHEMA</code></a>,
   rows are always published regardless of the definition of the other
   expressions. If the subscriber is a <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>
   version before 15, then any row filtering is ignored during the initial data
   synchronization phase. For this case, the user might want to consider
   deleting any initially copied data that would be incompatible with
   subsequent filtering. Because initial data synchronization does not take
   into account the publication
   <a class="link" href="sql-createpublication.html#SQL-CREATEPUBLICATION-WITH-PUBLISH"><code class="literal">publish</code></a>
   parameter when copying existing table data, some rows may be copied that
   would not be replicated using DML. See
   <a class="xref" href="logical-replication-subscription.html#LOGICAL-REPLICATION-SUBSCRIPTION-EXAMPLES" title="31.2.2. Examples: Set Up Logical Replication">Section 31.2.2</a> for examples.
  </p><p>
   Subscriptions having several publications in which the same table has been
   published with different column lists are not supported.
  </p><p>
   We allow non-existent publications to be specified so that users can add
   those later. This means
   <a class="link" href="catalog-pg-subscription.html" title="53.54. pg_subscription"><code class="structname">pg_subscription</code></a>
   can have non-existent publications.
  </p><p>
   When using a subscription parameter combination of
   <code class="literal">copy_data = true</code> and <code class="literal">origin = NONE</code>,
   the initial sync table data is copied directly from the publisher, meaning
   that knowledge of the true origin of that data is not possible. If the
   publisher also has subscriptions then the copied table data might have
   originated from further upstream. This scenario is detected and a WARNING is
   logged to the user, but the warning is only an indication of a potential
   problem; it is the user's responsibility to make the necessary checks to
   ensure the copied data origins are really as wanted or not.
  </p><p>
   To find which tables might potentially include non-local origins (due to
   other subscriptions created on the publisher) try this SQL query:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
# substitute &lt;pub-names&gt; below with your publication name(s) to be queried
SELECT DISTINCT PT.schemaname, PT.tablename
FROM pg_publication_tables PT,
     pg_subscription_rel PS
     JOIN pg_class C ON (C.oid = PS.srrelid)
     JOIN pg_namespace N ON (N.oid = C.relnamespace)
WHERE N.nspname = PT.schemaname AND
      C.relname = PT.tablename AND
      PT.pubname IN (&lt;pub-names&gt;);
