Example Response

• The following is an example of a successful response in synchronous mode:

  {
   "is_success": true,
   "message": "",
   "job_mode": "sync"
  }

• The following is an example of a successful response in asynchronous mode:

  {
   "is_success": true,
   "message": "",
   "job_id": "208b08d4-0dc2-4dd7-8879-ddd4c020d7aa",
   "job_type": "DDL",
   "job_mode": "async"
  }

  

  • If the database is deleted asynchronously, you can view the current job status by calling the API for querying job status. For details, see Querying Job Status.
  • If cascade is set to true, all tables in the database will be deleted. Exercise caution when performing this operation.

Status Codes

Table 4 describes the status code.

Error Codes

If an error occurs when this API is invoked, the system does not return the result similar to the preceding example, but returns the error code and error information. For details, see Error Codes.
