END(7) | PostgreSQL 16.1 Documentation | END(7) |
NAME¶
END - commit the current transaction
SYNOPSIS¶
END [ WORK | TRANSACTION ] [ AND [ NO ] CHAIN ]
DESCRIPTION¶
END commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transaction become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable if a crash occurs. This command is a PostgreSQL extension that is equivalent to COMMIT.
PARAMETERS¶
WORK
TRANSACTION
Optional key words. They have no effect.
AND CHAIN
If AND CHAIN is specified, a new transaction is
immediately started with the same transaction characteristics (see SET
TRANSACTION (SET_TRANSACTION(7))) as the just finished one. Otherwise,
no new transaction is started.
NOTES¶
Use ROLLBACK to abort a transaction.
Issuing END when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message.
EXAMPLES¶
To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent:
END;
COMPATIBILITY¶
END is a PostgreSQL extension that provides functionality equivalent to COMMIT, which is specified in the SQL standard.
