# MaterializedPostgreSQL {#materialize-postgresql}
## Creating a Table {#creating-a-table}
``` sql
CREATE TABLE test.postgresql_replica (key UInt64, value UInt64)
ENGINE = MaterializedPostgreSQL('postgres1:5432', 'postgres_database', 'postgresql_replica', 'postgres_user', 'postgres_password')
PRIMARY KEY key;
```
## Requirements {#requirements}
- Setting `wal_level`to `logical` and `max_replication_slots` to at least `2` in the postgresql config file.
- A table with engine `MaterializedPostgreSQL` must have a primary key - the same as a replica identity index (default: primary key) of a postgres table (See [details on replica identity index](../../database-engines/materialized-postgresql.md#requirements)).
- Only database `Atomic` is allowed.
## Virtual columns {#creating-a-table}
- `_version` (`UInt64`)
- `_sign` (`Int8`)
These columns do not need to be added, when table is created. They are always accessible in `SELECT` query.
`_version` column equals `LSN` position in `WAL`, so it might be used to check how up-to-date replication is.
``` sql
CREATE TABLE test.postgresql_replica (key UInt64, value UInt64)
ENGINE = MaterializedPostgreSQL('postgres1:5432', 'postgres_database', 'postgresql_replica', 'postgres_user', 'postgres_password')
PRIMARY KEY key;
SELECT key, value, _version FROM test.postgresql_replica;
```
## Warning {#warning}
1. **TOAST** values convertion is not supported. Default value for the data type will be used.
