Tables

Delete column from table

Deletes an existing column from an existing table. Use the optional force parameter to delete the column from table aliases too. The job rejects deleting the last remaining column, a column that is part of the primary key, or a column referenced by an alias, unless force is set.

Initial response returns job details JobResponse. The result of the asynchronous job can be fetched via /v2/storage/jobs/{id}. When the job completes, final result is ColumnDeleteJobResult.

Parameters of job will be TableColumnDeleteJobParams.
