Arguments

Exceptions

Returns NULL on error or if a caller does not have permission to view the object.

A user can only view the metadata of securables that the user owns or on which the user has been granted permission. This means that metadata-emitting, built-in functions such as INDEX_COL may return NULL if the user does not have any permission on the object. For more information, see Metadata Visibility Configuration.

Examples

A. Using INDEX_COL to return an index column name

The following example returns the column names of the two key columns in the index PK_SalesOrderDetail_SalesOrderID_LineNumber.

USE AdventureWorks2022;  
GO  
SELECT   
    INDEX_COL (N'AdventureWorks2022.Sales.SalesOrderDetail', 1,1) AS  
        [Index Column 1],   
    INDEX_COL (N'AdventureWorks2022.Sales.SalesOrderDetail', 1,2) AS  
        [Index Column 2]  
;  
GO  

Here is the result set:

Index Column 1      Index Column 2  
-----------------------------------------------  
SalesOrderID        SalesOrderDetailID
