sys.index_columns (Transact-SQL)

  • Άρθρο

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

Contains one row per column that is part of an index or unordered table (heap).

Column name Data type Description
object_id int ID of the object the index is defined on.
index_id int ID of the index in which the column is defined.
index_column_id int ID of the index column. index_column_id is unique only within index_id.
column_id int ID of the column in object_id.

0 = Row Identifier (RID) in a nonclustered index.

column_id is unique only within object_id.
key_ordinal tinyint Ordinal (1-based) within set of key-columns.

0 = Not a key column, or is an XML index, a columnstore index, or a spatial index.

Note: An XML or spatial index cannot be a key because the underlying columns are not comparable, meaning that their values cannot be ordered.
partition_ordinal tinyint Ordinal (1-based) within set of partitioning columns. A clustered columnstore index can have at most one partitioning column.

0 = Not a partitioning column.
is_descending_key bit 1 = Index key column has a descending sort direction.

0 = Index key column has an ascending sort direction, or the column is part of a columnstore or hash index.
is_included_column bit 1 = Column is a non-key column added to the index by using the CREATE INDEX INCLUDE clause, or the column is part of a columnstore index.

0 = Column is not an included column.

Columns implicitly added because they're part of the clustering key are not listed in sys.index_columns.

Columns implicitly added because they're a partitioning column are returned as 0.
column_store_order_ordinal tinyint Applies to: Azure Synapse Analytics and SQL Server 2022 (16.x)
Ordinal (1-based) within set of order columns in an ordered clustered columnstore index. For more on ordered clustered columnstore indexes, see Columnstore index design guidance.

Examples

The following example returns all indexes and index columns for the table Production.BillOfMaterials.

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
SELECT i.name AS index_name
    ,COL_NAME(ic.object_id,ic.column_id) AS column_name
    ,ic.index_column_id
    ,ic.key_ordinal
,ic.is_included_column
FROM sys.indexes AS i
INNER JOIN sys.index_columns AS ic
    ON i.object_id = ic.object_id AND i.index_id = ic.index_id
WHERE i.object_id = OBJECT_ID('Production.BillOfMaterials');

Here's the result set.

index_name                                                 column_name        index_column_id key_ordinal is_included_column
