# ALTER TABLE … MODIFY QUERY Statement
|
|
|
|
You can modify `SELECT` query that was specified when a [materialized view](../create/view.md#materialized) was created with the `ALTER TABLE … MODIFY QUERY` statement without interrupting ingestion process.
|
|
|
|
The `allow_experimental_alter_materialized_view_structure` setting must be enabled.
|
|
|
|
This command is created to change materialized view created with `TO [db.]name` clause. It does not change the structure of the underling storage table and it does not change the columns' definition of the materialized view, because of this the application of this command is very limited for materialized views are created without `TO [db.]name` clause.
|
|
|
|
**Example with TO table**
|
|
|
|
```sql
|
|
CREATE TABLE events (ts DateTime, event_type String)
|
|
ENGINE = MergeTree ORDER BY (event_type, ts);
|
|
|
|
CREATE TABLE events_by_day (ts DateTime, event_type String, events_cnt UInt64)
|
|
ENGINE = SummingMergeTree ORDER BY (event_type, ts);
|
|
|
|
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv TO events_by_day AS
|
|
SELECT toStartOfDay(ts) ts, event_type, count() events_cnt
|
|
FROM events
|
|
GROUP BY ts, event_type;
|
|
|
|
INSERT INTO events
|
|
SELECT Date '2020-01-01' + interval number * 900 second,
|
|
['imp', 'click'][number%2+1]
|
|
FROM numbers(100);
|
|
|
|
SELECT ts, event_type, sum(events_cnt)
|
|
FROM events_by_day
|
|
GROUP BY ts, event_type
|
|
ORDER BY ts, event_type;
|
|

The application is very limited because you can only change the `SELECT` section without adding new columns.

|
|
```sql
|
|
CREATE TABLE src_table (`a` UInt32) ENGINE = MergeTree ORDER BY a;
|
|
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv (`a` UInt32) ENGINE = MergeTree ORDER BY a AS SELECT a FROM src_table;
|
|
INSERT INTO src_table (a) VALUES (1), (2);
|
|
SELECT * FROM mv;
|
|
```
|
|
```text
|
|
┌─a─┐
|
|

|
|

|
|
└───┘
|
|
```
|
|
```sql
|
|
set allow_experimental_alter_materialized_view_structure=1;
|
|
ALTER TABLE mv MODIFY QUERY SELECT a * 2 as a FROM src_table;
|
|
INSERT INTO src_table (a) VALUES (3), (4);

## ALTER LIVE VIEW Statement
|
|
|
|
`ALTER LIVE VIEW ... REFRESH` statement refreshes a [Live view](../create/view.md#live-view). See [Force Live View Refresh](../create/view.md#live-view-alter-refresh).
