Create unique constraints

Applies to: SQL Server 2016 (13.x) and later Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance

You can create a unique constraint in SQL Server by using SQL Server Management Studio or Transact-SQL to ensure no duplicate values are entered in specific columns that don't participate in a primary key. Creating a unique constraint automatically creates a corresponding unique index.

Note

For information on unique constraints in Azure Synapse Analytics, see Primary key, foreign key, and unique key in Azure Synapse Analytics.

Permissions

Requires ALTER permission on the table.

Use SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)

Create a unique constraint using SSMS

  1. In Object Explorer, right-click the table to which you want to add a unique constraint, and select Design.

  2. On the Table Designer menu, select Indexes/Keys.

  3. In the Indexes/Keys dialog box, select Add.

  4. In the grid under General, select Type and choose Unique Key from the dropdown list box to the right of the property, and then select Close.

  5. On the File menu, select Save table name.

Use Transact-SQL

Create a unique constraint using Transact-SQL

  1. In Object Explorer, connect to an instance of Database Engine.

  2. On the Standard bar, select New Query.

  3. Copy and paste the following example into the query window and select Execute. The example creates the table TransactionHistoryArchive4 and creates a unique constraint on the column TransactionID.

    USE AdventureWorks2022;  
    GO  
    CREATE TABLE Production.TransactionHistoryArchive4  
     (  
       TransactionID int NOT NULL,   
       CONSTRAINT AK_TransactionID UNIQUE(TransactionID)   
    );   
    GO  
    

Create a unique constraint on an existing table

  1. In Object Explorer, connect to an instance of Database Engine.

  2. On the Standard bar, select New Query.

  3. Copy and paste the following example into the query window and select Execute. The example creates a unique constraint on the columns PasswordHash and PasswordSalt in the table Person.Password.

    USE AdventureWorks2022;   
    GO  
    ALTER TABLE Person.Password   
    ADD CONSTRAINT AK_Password UNIQUE (PasswordHash, PasswordSalt);   
    GO  
    
    

Create a unique constraint on a new table

  1. In Object Explorer, connect to an instance of Database Engine.

  2. On the Standard bar, select New Query.

  3. Copy and paste the following example into the query window and select Execute. The example creates a table and defines a unique constraint on the column TransactionID.

    USE AdventureWorks2022;  
    GO  
    CREATE TABLE Production.TransactionHistoryArchive2  
    (  
       TransactionID int NOT NULL,  
       CONSTRAINT AK_TransactionID UNIQUE(TransactionID)  
    );  
    GO  
    

Create a unique constraint on a nullable column

  1. In Object Explorer, connect to an instance of Database Engine.

  2. On the Standard bar, select New Query.

  3. Copy and paste the following example into the query window and select Execute. The example creates a filtered unique constraint using the CREATE UNIQUE INDEX syntax, only enforcing uniqueness on non-NULL values.

    USE AdventureWorks2022;  
    GO
    CREATE UNIQUE INDEX UQ_AdventureWorksDWBuildVersion
    ON dbo.AdventureWorksDWBuildVersion (DBVersion)
    WHERE (DBVersion IS NOT NULL);
    GO
