.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
changes various auxiliary properties of an existing materialized view\&.
.PP
You must own the materialized view to use
\fBALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR\&. To change a materialized view\*(Aqs schema, you must also have
CREATE
privilege on the new schema\&. To alter the owner, you must be able to
SET ROLE
to the new owning role, and that role must have
CREATE
privilege on the materialized view\*(Aqs schema\&. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn\*(Aqt do anything you couldn\*(Aqt do by dropping and recreating the materialized view\&. However, a superuser can alter ownership of any view anyway\&.)
.PP
The statement subforms and actions available for
\fBALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
are a subset of those available for
\fBALTER TABLE\fR, and have the same meaning when used for materialized views\&. See the descriptions for
\fBALTER TABLE\fR
for details\&.
.SH "PARAMETERS"
.PP
\fIname\fR
.RS 4
The name (optionally schema\-qualified) of an existing materialized view\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIcolumn_name\fR
.RS 4
Name of a new or existing column\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIextension_name\fR
.RS 4
The name of the extension that the materialized view is to depend on (or no longer dependent on, if
NO
is specified)\&. A materialized view that\*(Aqs marked as dependent on an extension is automatically dropped when the extension is dropped\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_column_name\fR
.RS 4
New name for an existing column\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_owner\fR
.RS 4
The user name of the new owner of the materialized view\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_name\fR
.RS 4
The new name for the materialized view\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_schema\fR
.RS 4
The new schema for the materialized view\&.
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
To rename the materialized view
foo
to
bar:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW foo RENAME TO bar;
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
.PP
\fBALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW\fR
is a
PostgreSQL
extension\&.
