## How to sync schema changes to NocoDB.
|
|
|
|
|
NocoDB allows you to sync schema changes if you have made changes outside NocoDB GUI. However, it has to be noted then you will have to bring your own
|
|
|
|
|
schema migrations for moving from environment to other.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Below are the steps to sync schema changes.
|
|
|
|
|
1. Under `Settings` menubar, click `Project Metadata`
|
|
|
|
|
2. Under `Meta Management` tab, click on `Metadata` sub tab.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Changes carried outside GUI, identified by NocoDB are listed under `Sync state`
|
|
|
|
|
4. Click `Sync Now` to complete Schema sync procedure.

## Note
|
|
|
|
|
1. Column rename operation will be treated like 'column delete' & 'column create' operation
|
|
|
|
|
2. Only table schema changes identified will be listed under `Sync state`; any changes to records are automatically synchronized.
