NAME

6       DROP_POLICY - remove a row level security policy from a table
7

SYNOPSIS

9       DROP POLICY [ IF EXISTS ] name ON table_name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       DROP POLICY removes the specified policy from the table. Note that if
13       the last policy is removed for a table and the table still has row
14       level security enabled via ALTER TABLE, then the default-deny policy
15       will be used.  ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY can be used
16       to disable row level security for a table, whether policies for the
17       table exist or not.
18

PARAMETERS

20       IF EXISTS
21           Do not throw an error if the policy does not exist. A notice is
22           issued in this case.
23
24       name
25           The name of the policy to drop.
26
27       table_name
28           The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the table that the policy
29           is on.
30
31       CASCADE
32       RESTRICT
33           These key words do not have any effect, since there are no
34           dependencies on policies.
35

EXAMPLES

37       To drop the policy called p1 on the table named my_table:
