I need to remove a highly referenced table in a SQL Server database. How can I get a list of all the foreign key constraints I will need to remove in order to drop the table?
(SQL answers preferable over clicking about in the GUI of the management studio.)
Not sure why no one suggested but I use sp_fkeys
to query foreign keys for a given table:
EXEC sp_fkeys 'TableName'
You can also specify the schema:
EXEC sp_fkeys @pktable_name = 'TableName', @pktable_owner = 'dbo'
Without specifying the schema, the docs state the following:
If pktable_owner is not specified, the default table visibility rules of the underlying DBMS apply. In SQL Server, if the current user owns a table with the specified name, that table's columns are returned. If pktable_owner is not specified and the current user does not own a table with the specified pktable_name, the procedure looks for a table with the specified pktable_name owned by the database owner. If one exists, that table's columns are returned.
This gives you:
The FK itself itself
Schema that the FK belongs to
The "referencing table" or the table that has the FK
The "referencing column" or the column inside referencing table that points to the FK
The "referenced table" or the table that has the key column that your FK is pointing to
The "referenced column" or the column that is the key that your FK is pointing to
Code below:
SELECT obj.name AS FK_NAME,
sch.name AS [schema_name],
tab1.name AS [table],
col1.name AS [column],
tab2.name AS [referenced_table],
col2.name AS [referenced_column]
FROM sys.foreign_key_columns fkc
INNER JOIN sys.objects obj
ON obj.object_id = fkc.constraint_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.tables tab1
ON tab1.object_id = fkc.parent_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.schemas sch
ON tab1.schema_id = sch.schema_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns col1
ON col1.column_id = parent_column_id AND col1.object_id = tab1.object_id
INNER JOIN sys.tables tab2
ON tab2.object_id = fkc.referenced_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns col2
ON col2.column_id = referenced_column_id AND col2.object_id = tab2.object_id
order by
: KeyTableSchemaName, KeyTableName, KeyColumnName, FkTableSchemaName, FkTableName, FkName, and f) change Column order to: KeyTableSchemaName, KeyTableName, KeyColumnName, FkTableSchemaName, FkTableName, FkName, FkColumnName, a/b/c/d for consistency / most common Best Practice naming conventions and d/e for the most likely usage (listing FK dependents of a Table
).
I'd use the Database Diagramming feature in SQL Server Management Studio, but since you ruled that out - this worked for me in SQL Server 2008 (don't have 2005).
To get list of referring table and column names...
select
t.name as TableWithForeignKey,
fk.constraint_column_id as FK_PartNo, c.
name as ForeignKeyColumn
from
sys.foreign_key_columns as fk
inner join
sys.tables as t on fk.parent_object_id = t.object_id
inner join
sys.columns as c on fk.parent_object_id = c.object_id and fk.parent_column_id = c.column_id
where
fk.referenced_object_id = (select object_id
from sys.tables
where name = 'TableOthersForeignKeyInto')
order by
TableWithForeignKey, FK_PartNo
To get names of foreign key constraints
select distinct name from sys.objects where object_id in
( select fk.constraint_object_id from sys.foreign_key_columns as fk
where fk.referenced_object_id =
(select object_id from sys.tables where name = 'TableOthersForeignKeyInto')
)
Try this :
sp_help 'TableName'
You should also mind the references to other objects.
If the table was highly referenced by other tables than it’s probably also highly referenced by other objects such as views, stored procedures, functions and more.
I’d really recommend GUI tool such as ‘view dependencies’ dialog in SSMS or free tool like ApexSQL Search for this because searching for dependencies in other objects can be error prone if you want to do it only with SQL.
If SQL is the only option you could try doing it like this.
select O.name as [Object_Name], C.text as [Object_Definition]
from sys.syscomments C
inner join sys.all_objects O ON C.id = O.object_id
where C.text like '%table_name%'
The original question asked to get a list of all foreign keys into a highly referenced table so that the table can be removed.
This little query returns all the 'drop foreign key' commands needed to drop all foreign keys into a particular table:
SELECT
'ALTER TABLE ['+sch.name+'].['+referencingTable.Name+'] DROP CONSTRAINT ['+foreignKey.name+']' '[DropCommand]'
FROM sys.foreign_key_columns fk
JOIN sys.tables referencingTable ON fk.parent_object_id = referencingTable.object_id
JOIN sys.schemas sch ON referencingTable.schema_id = sch.schema_id
JOIN sys.objects foreignKey ON foreignKey.object_id = fk.constraint_object_id
JOIN sys.tables referencedTable ON fk.referenced_object_id = referencedTable.object_id
WHERE referencedTable.name = 'MyTableName'
Example output:
[DropCommand]
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[OtherTable1] DROP CONSTRAINT [FK_OtherTable1_MyTable]
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[OtherTable2] DROP CONSTRAINT [FK_OtherTable2_MyTable]
Omit the WHERE-clause to get the drop commands for all foreign keys in the current database.
Here's the SQL code I would use.
SELECT
f.name AS 'Name of Foreign Key',
OBJECT_NAME(f.parent_object_id) AS 'Table name',
COL_NAME(fc.parent_object_id,fc.parent_column_id) AS 'Fieldname',
OBJECT_NAME(t.object_id) AS 'References Table name',
COL_NAME(t.object_id,fc.referenced_column_id) AS 'References fieldname',
'ALTER TABLE [' + OBJECT_NAME(f.parent_object_id) + '] DROP CONSTRAINT [' + f.name + ']' AS 'Delete foreign key',
'ALTER TABLE [' + OBJECT_NAME(f.parent_object_id) + '] WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [' +
f.name + '] FOREIGN KEY([' + COL_NAME(fc.parent_object_id,fc.parent_column_id) + ']) REFERENCES ' +
'[' + OBJECT_NAME(t.object_id) + '] ([' +
COL_NAME(t.object_id,fc.referenced_column_id) + '])' AS 'Create foreign key'
-- , delete_referential_action_desc AS 'UsesCascadeDelete'
FROM sys.foreign_keys AS f,
sys.foreign_key_columns AS fc,
sys.tables t
WHERE f.OBJECT_ID = fc.constraint_object_id
AND t.OBJECT_ID = fc.referenced_object_id
AND OBJECT_NAME(t.object_id) = 'Employees' -- Just show the FKs which reference a particular table
ORDER BY 2
It's not particularly clear SQL, so let's look at an example.
So, supposing I wanted to drop the Employees
table in Microsoft's beloved Northwind
database, but SQL Server told me that one or more Foreign Keys were preventing me from doing this.
The SQL command above would return these results...
https://i.stack.imgur.com/qDHxZ.png
It shows me that there are 3 Foreign Keys which reference the Employees
table. In other words, I wouldn't be allowed to delete (drop) this table until these three Foreign Keys are first deleted.
In the results, the first row is how the following Foreign Key constraint would be shown in the results.
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Employees] WITH NOCHECK
ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Employees_Employees] FOREIGN KEY([ReportsTo])
REFERENCES [dbo].[Employees] ([EmployeeID])
The second-to-last column shows the SQL command I would need to use to delete one of these Foreign Keys, eg:
ALTER TABLE [Employees] DROP CONSTRAINT [FK_Employees_Employees]
...and the right-hand column shows the SQL to create it...
ALTER TABLE [Employees] WITH NOCHECK
ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Employees_Employees]
FOREIGN KEY([ReportsTo]) REFERENCES [Employees] ([EmployeeID])
With all of these commands, you have everything you need to delete the relevant Foreign Keys to allow you to delete a table, then recreate them later.
Phew. Hope this helps.
The most Simplest one is by using sys.foreign_keys_columns in SQL. Here the table contains the Object ids of all the foreign keys wrt their Referenced column ID Referenced Table ID as well as the Referencing Columns and Tables. As the Id's remains constant the result will be reliable for further modifications in Schema as well as tables.
Query:
SELECT
OBJECT_NAME(fkeys.constraint_object_id) foreign_key_name

List of all foreign keys referencing a given table in SQL Server :
You can get the referencing table name and column name through following query...
SELECT
OBJECT_NAME(f.parent_object_id) TableName,
COL_NAME(fc.parent_object_id,fc.parent_column_id) ColName
FROM
sys.foreign_keys AS f
INNER JOIN
sys.foreign_key_columns AS fc
ON f.OBJECT_ID = fc.constraint_object_id
INNER JOIN
sys.tables t
ON t.OBJECT_ID = fc.referenced_object_id
WHERE
OBJECT_NAME (f.referenced_object_id) = 'TableName'
And following screenshot for your understanding...

Some good answers above. But I prefer to have the answer with one query. This piece of code is taken from sys.sp_helpconstraint (sys proc)
That's the way Microsoft looks up if there are foreign keys associated to the tbl.
--setup variables. Just change 'Customer' to tbl you want
declare @objid int,
@objname nvarchar(776)
select @objname = 'Customer'
select @objid = object_id(@objname)
if exists (select * from sys.foreign_keys where referenced_object_id = @objid)
select 'Table is referenced by foreign key' =
db_name() + '.'
+ rtrim(schema_name(ObjectProperty(parent_object_id,'schemaid')))
+ '.' + object_name(parent_object_id)
+ ': ' + object_name(object_id)
from sys.foreign_keys
where referenced_object_id = @objid
order by 1
The answer will look like this: test_db_name.dbo.Account: FK_Account_Customer
select db_name() + '.' + schema_name(ObjectProperty(parent_object_id,'schemaid')) + '.' + object_name(parent_object_id) + ': ' + object_name(object_id) AS "FK Reference" from sys.foreign_keys where referenced_object_id = object_id('Customer')
SELECT OBJECT_NAME(fk.parent_object_id) as ReferencingTable,
OBJECT_NAME(fk.constraint_object_id) as [FKContraint]
FROM sys.foreign_key_columns as fk
WHERE fk.referenced_object_id = OBJECT_ID('ReferencedTable', 'U')
This only shows the relationship if the are foreign key constraints. My database apparently predates the FK constraint.Some table use triggers to enforce referential integrity, and sometimes there's nothing but a similarly named column to indicate the relationship (and no referential integrity at all).
Fortunately, we do have a consistent naming scene so I am able to find referencing tables and views like this:
SELECT OBJECT_NAME(object_id) from sys.columns where name like 'client_id'
I used this select as the basis for generating a script the does what I need to do on the related tables.
SELECT
OBJECT_NAME(parent_object_id) 'Parent table',
c.NAME 'Parent column name',
OBJECT_NAME(referenced_object_id) 'Referenced table',
cref.NAME 'Referenced column name'
FROM
sys.foreign_key_columns fkc
INNER JOIN
sys.columns c
ON fkc.parent_column_id = c.column_id
AND fkc.parent_object_id = c.object_id
INNER JOIN
sys.columns cref
ON fkc.referenced_column_id = cref.column_id
AND fkc.referenced_object_id = cref.object_id where OBJECT_NAME(parent_object_id) = 'tablename'
If you want to get the foreign key relation of all the tables exclude the where
clause else write your tablename instead of tablename
Most preferable answer by @BankZ
sp_help 'TableName'
additionally for different schema
sp_help 'schemaName.TableName'
Mysql server has information_schema.REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS
table FYI, you can filter it by table name or referenced table name.
Working off of what @Gishu did I was able to produce and use the following SQL in SQL Server 2005
SELECT t.name AS TableWithForeignKey, fk.constraint_column_id AS FK_PartNo,
c.name AS ForeignKeyColumn, o.name AS FK_Name
FROM sys.foreign_key_columns AS fk
INNER JOIN sys.tables AS t ON fk.parent_object_id = t.object_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns AS c ON fk.parent_object_id = c.object_id
AND fk.parent_column_id = c.column_id
INNER JOIN sys.objects AS o ON fk.constraint_object_id = o.object_id
WHERE fk.referenced_object_id = (SELECT object_id FROM sys.tables
WHERE name = 'TableOthersForeignKeyInto')
ORDER BY TableWithForeignKey, FK_PartNo;
Which Displays the tables, columns and Foreign Key names all in 1 query.

I have been using this on 2008 and up. It's similar to some other solutions listed but, the field names are proper cased to handle case specific (LatBin) collations. Additionally, you can feed it a single table name and retrieve just the info for that table.

You can find through below query :
SELECT OBJECT_NAME (FK.referenced_object_id) 'Referenced Table',
OBJECT_NAME(FK.parent_object_id) 'Referring Table', FK.name 'Foreign Key',
COL_NAME(FK.referenced_object_id, FKC.referenced_column_id) 'Referenced Column',

FROM sys.foreign_keys AS FK
INNER JOIN sys.foreign_key_columns AS FKC
ON FKC.constraint_object_id = FK.OBJECT_ID
WHERE OBJECT_NAME (FK.referenced_object_id) = 'YourTableName'
AND COL_NAME(FK.referenced_object_id, FKC.referenced_column_id) = 'YourColumnName'
order by OBJECT_NAME(FK.parent_object_id)
Also try.
EXEC sp_fkeys 'tableName', 'schemaName'
with sp_fkeys
you may filter the result by not only pk table name and schema but also with fk table name and schema. link
with tab_list as (
select t.name AS Table_Name, t.object_id, s.name AS Table_Schema from sys.tables t, sys.schemas s

all_constraints
is an intrinsic table name in Oracle DB.
This answer builds on but is formatted like sp_fkeys
, works on multiple columns and lists their order.
SELECT fk_obj.name AS FK_NAME,
pk_schema.name AS PKTABLE_OWNER,
