Request Syntax

   alias: string,
   db_name: string,
   collection_name: string,
   timeout?: number
 })

PARAMETERS:

• alias (str) -

  [REQUIRED]

  The alias of the collection. Before this operation, ensure that the alias does not already exist. If it does, exceptions will occur.

  📘What is a collection alias?

  A collection alias is an additional name for a collection. Collection aliases are useful when you want to switch your application to a new collection without any changes to your code.

  On Zilliz Cloud, a collection alias is a globally unique identifier. One alias can only be assigned to exactly one collection. Conversely, a collection can have multiple aliases.

  Below is an example of reassigning the alias of one collection to another:

  Suppose there are two collections: collection_1 and collection_2. There is also a collection alias named bob, which was originally assigned to collection_1:

  • collection_1's alias = ["bob"]

  • collection_2's alias = []

  After calling alter_alias("collection_2", "bob"):

  • collection_1's alias = []

  • collection_2's alias = ["bob"]

• db_name (str) -

  The name of the database that holds the target collection.

• collection_name (str) -

  [REQUIRED]

  The name of the collection to create an alias for.

• timeout (number)

  The timeout duration for this operation. Setting this to None indicates that this operation timeouts when any response arrives or any error occurs.

RETURNS Promise<ResStatus>

This method returns a promise that resolves to a ResStatus object.

{
    code: number,
    error_code: string | number,
    reason: string
}

PARAMETERS:

• code (number) -

  A code that indicates the operation result. It remains 0 if this operation succeeds.

• error_code (string | number) -

  An error code that indicates an occurred error. It remains Success if this operation succeeds.

• reason (string) -

  The reason that indicates the reason for the reported error. It remains an empty string if this operation succeeds.

Example

const milvusClient = new milvusClient(MILUVS_ADDRESS);
 const resStatus = await milvusClient.createAlias({
   alias: 'my_collection_alias',
   collection_name: 'my_collection',
 });
