How do I view all tables in SQL?

Question

Can anyone tell me how do I view all tables in SQL?

Answer 1

Here is the query to view all the tables of the currently connected database

SELECT * FROM information_schema.tables;

The following query can be used to show only tables from a particular database

SELECT TableName

FROM <Database_NAME>.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES

WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE'
