Article
11/26/2018

THIS TOPIC APPLIES TO: SQL Server yes Azure SQL Database yes Azure SQL Data Warehouse Parallel Data Warehouse

Updates existing database details.

Important

The recommended REST commands to work with SQL Database are the Resource Manager based Azure SQL Database REST API. While there is no change to SQL Database, be aware that the classic deployment model command in this article is scheduled for deprecation on December 1, 2019. For a table providing links to the specific new commands you should use, see Operations for Azure SQL Databases.

Request

The Update Database request must be specified as follows:

Replace {subscriptionId} with your subscription ID.
Replace {serverName} with your server name.
Replace {databaseName} with your database name.

Method	Request URI	HTTP Version
PUT	https://management.core.windows.net:8443/{subscriptionId}/services/sqlservers/servers/{serverName}/databases/{databaseName}	HTTP/1.1

If an operation on databases, excluding those that cause service level objective (SLO) changes, succeeds, the operation is complete and changes are effective immediately. If an operation fails because of a user error, no changes will be applied. If there is a communication error or an internal server error, query the operation’s progress using Database Operation Status (classic) or check for the existence of the database using Get Database (classic).

For database operation with SLO changes (or those not in shared SLO), the operation will return success if initial validation succeed. The actual operation will be carried out asynchronously. You can query the operation’s progress using Database Operation Status (classic) or Get Database (classic).

To determine if the database is available for use, use Database Operation Status (classic).

This method is not re-entrant.

URI Parameters

None.

x-ms-client-request-id	Optional. Provides a client-generated, opaque value with a 1 KB character limit that is recorded in the analytics logs when storage analytics logging is enabled.
