sys.sysobjects (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW) SQL analytics endpoint in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Contains one row for each object that is created within a database, such as a constraint, default, log, rule, and stored procedure.

Important

This SQL Server 2000 system table is included as a view for backward compatibility. We recommend that you use the current SQL Server system views instead. To find the equivalent system view or views, see Mapping System Tables to System Views (Transact-SQL). This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

Column name Data type Description
name sysname Object name
id int Object identification number
xtype char(2) Object type. Can be one of the following object types:

AF = Aggregate function (CLR)
C = CHECK constraint
D = Default or DEFAULT constraint
F = FOREIGN KEY constraint
L = Log
FN = Scalar function
FS = Assembly (CLR) scalar-function
FT = Assembly (CLR) table-valued function
IF = In-lined table-function
IT = Internal table
P = Stored procedure
PC = Assembly (CLR) stored-procedure
PK = PRIMARY KEY constraint (type is K)
RF = Replication filter stored procedure
S = System table
SN = Synonym
SO = Sequence
SQ = Service queue
TA = Assembly (CLR) DML trigger
TF = Table function
TR = SQL DML Trigger
TT = Table type
U = User table
UQ = UNIQUE constraint (type is K)
V = View
X = Extended stored procedure
uid smallint Schema ID of the owner of the object. For databases upgraded from an earlier version of SQL Server, the schema ID is equal to the user ID of the owner. Overflows or returns NULL if the number of users and roles exceeds 32,767.
