# EXCHANGE Statement {#exchange}
Exchanges the names of two tables or dictionaries atomically.
This task can also be accomplished with a [RENAME](./rename.md) query using a temporary name, but the operation is not atomic in that case.
!!! note "Note"
The `EXCHANGE` query is supported by the [Atomic](../../engines/database-engines/atomic.md) database engine only.
**Syntax**
```sql
EXCHANGE TABLES|DICTIONARIES [db0.]name_A AND [db1.]name_B
```
## EXCHANGE TABLES {#exchange_tables}

**Syntax**
```sql
EXCHANGE TABLES [db0.]table_A AND [db1.]table_B
```
## EXCHANGE DICTIONARIES {#exchange_dictionaries}

**Syntax**
```sql
EXCHANGE DICTIONARIES [db0.]dict_A AND [db1.]dict_B
