SHOW PROCEDURE - Amazon Redshift

Amazon Redshift will no longer support the use of Python UDFs after June 30, 2026. We will start enforcing it in phases. For more information on the details of Python end of life and migration options, see the blog post that was published on June 30, 2025.

SHOW PROCEDURE

Shows the definition of a given stored procedure, including its signature. You can use the output of a SHOW PROCEDURE to recreate the stored procedure.

Syntax

SHOW PROCEDURE sp_name [( [ [ argname ] [ argmode ] argtype [, ...] ] )]

Parameters

sp_name

The name of the procedure to show.

[argname] [ argmode] argtype

Input argument types to identify the stored procedure. Optionally, you can include the full argument data types, including OUT arguments. This part is optional if the name of the stored procedure is unique (that is, not overloaded).

Examples

The following example shows the definition of the procedure test_spl2.

show procedure test_sp2(int, varchar); Stored Procedure Definition ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE public.test_sp2(f1 integer, INOUT f2 character varying, OUT character varying) LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $_$ DECLARE out_var alias for $3; loop_var int; BEGIN IF f1 is null OR f2 is null THEN RAISE EXCEPTION 'input cannot be null'; END IF; CREATE TEMP TABLE etl(a int, b varchar); FOR loop_var IN 1..f1 LOOP insert into etl values (loop_var, f2); f2 := f2 || '+' || f2; END LOOP; SELECT INTO out_var count(*) from etl; END; $_$ (1 row)
