UNLISTEN { <em class="replaceable"><code>channel</code></em> | * }
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.182.5"><h2>Description</h2><p>
<code class="command">UNLISTEN</code> is used to remove an existing
registration for <code class="command">NOTIFY</code> events.
<code class="command">UNLISTEN</code> cancels any existing registration of
the current <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> session as a
listener on the notification channel named <em class="replaceable"><code>channel</code></em>. The special wildcard
<code class="literal">*</code> cancels all listener registrations for the
current session.
</p><p>
<a class="xref" href="sql-notify.html" title="NOTIFY"><span class="refentrytitle">NOTIFY</span></a>
contains a more extensive
discussion of the use of <code class="command">LISTEN</code> and
<code class="command">NOTIFY</code>.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.182.6"><h2>Parameters</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>channel</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
Name of a notification channel (any identifier).
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">*</code></span></dt><dd><p>
All current listen registrations for this session are cleared.
</p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.182.7"><h2>Notes</h2><p>
You can unlisten something you were not listening for; no warning or error
will appear.
</p><p>
At the end of each session, <code class="command">UNLISTEN *</code> is
automatically executed.
</p><p>
A transaction that has executed <code class="command">UNLISTEN</code> cannot be
prepared for two-phase commit.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.182.8"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
To make a registration:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
LISTEN virtual;
NOTIFY virtual;
Asynchronous notification "virtual" received from server process with PID 8448.
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Once <code class="command">UNLISTEN</code> has been executed, further <code class="command">NOTIFY</code>
messages will be ignored:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
UNLISTEN virtual;
NOTIFY virtual;
-- no NOTIFY event is received
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.182.9"><h2>Compatibility</h2><p>
There is no <code class="command">UNLISTEN</code> command in the SQL standard.
