Examples

The PLACEMENT_POLICIES table only shows all placement policies. To view the canonical version of placement rules (including all placement policies and objects assigned placement policies), use the statement SHOW PLACEMENT instead:

CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT); 
CREATE PLACEMENT POLICY p1 primary_region="us-east-1" regions="us-east-1";
CREATE TABLE t3 (a INT) PLACEMENT POLICY=p1;
SHOW PLACEMENT; -- Shows all information, including table t3.
SELECT * FROM information_schema.placement_policies; -- Only shows placement policies, excluding t3.
