Rename a Collection
If you want to rename a collection, you can use the collection-renaming API to interact with Milvus. This guide helps you understand how to rename an existing collection using the SDK of your choice.
In the following code snippet, we create a collection and name it old_collection. Then we rename it new_collection.
from pymilvus import Collection, FieldSchema, CollectionSchema, DataType, connections, utility
connections.connect(alias="default")
schema = CollectionSchema(fields=[
... FieldSchema("int64", DataType.INT64, description="int64", is_primary=True),
... FieldSchema("float_vector", DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR, is_primary=False, dim=128),
... ])
collection = Collection(name="old_collection", schema=schema)
utility.rename_collection("old_collection", "new_collection") # Output: True
utility.drop_collection("new_collection")
utility.has_collection("new_collection") # Output: False
