Synopsis
COMMIT PREPARED transaction_id
Description
COMMIT PREPARED
commits a transaction that is in
prepared state.
Parameters
-
transaction_id -
The transaction identifier of the transaction that is to be committed.
Notes
To commit a prepared transaction, you must be either the same user that executed the transaction originally, or a superuser. But you do not have to be in the same session that executed the transaction.
This command cannot be executed inside a transaction block. The prepared transaction is committed immediately.
All currently available prepared transactions are listed in the
pg_prepared_xacts
system view.
Examples
Commit the transaction identified by the transaction
identifier
foobar
:
COMMIT PREPARED 'foobar';
Compatibility
COMMIT PREPARED
is a
PostgreSQL
extension. It is intended for use by
external transaction management systems, some of which are covered by
standards (such as X/Open XA), but the SQL side of those systems is not
standardized.
